"I will live out my imaginations – not my history."

Often near the end, you will hear people lament about the shortness of their lives; about all the regrets and ways they wish they had to live over again. They wonder, what the busyness of life had really produced, what had they to give their children, how would they be remembered?

While you cannot control the short time God gives you on this earth, YOU are in control of your life you do have. No matter how many different forces there may appear to be which seem to influence or even dictate parts of your life, there are always parts which you have control. If you decide what it is you want out of your life, you can build a powerful life. It’s your life. Not hers. Or his. Or theirs. YOURS. So take charge.

If you want to happen to life instead of it happening to you, you’ll need to focus. You’ll need to know what you want the end result to look like, and how you can get there.
Here’s two things that I do every year to help regain focus. Take 10 minutes to write out these glimpses of your future and you won’t regret it.

1) Your Eulogy. What is said of you, when your book has closed?

2) A legacy letter. Imagine that you have just died. The funeral has been held, your eulogy spoken, and all of your loved ones are at home. ____________(spouse, child) has gone to a back bedroom and is sitting on a bed, grieving. They notice a letter beside them. The letter is from you. Now, what do you want to tell them?

Now, do what it takes to end where you want to end. Own your life.
