New Years Revolutions

That's right, I said "revolutions", not "resolutions". Why? Because I believe that now, especially since I'm seeing my life in a somewhat clearer light, is a great time to initiate some significant life change. In otherwords, I want to revolutionize my life and the lives of those around me. So, here goes:

1. Be in the word daily. I struggle with this, and it's time just to put my foot down and do it. Daily.

2. Pray daily. See above.

3. Workout daily. Already have a good start to this one, going to the gym 3-4 times a week. Let's just bump it up to 5-6, shall we? Start integrating some weight training in with my cardio routine. My ultimate goal: 8-10 pounds a month, be down to 210 by July.

4. Be more encouraging. I tend to be biting and sarcastic at times. Why not turn that around to build people up instead of tear them down? We are, after all, called to encouraged one another daily, as long as it is called today.

5. Rejoice always instead of moaning and complaining as much as I do. In fact, I want to model my old pastor's way of life, whenever anyone would ask him how he was he would respond "rejoicing! Because the bible says to rejoice always." He truly was to, this wasn't just words.

6. Work harder, as unto the Lord and not as unto my paycheck.

I guess that's a good start, huh? Now to go off and complete numbers 1&2 for today...
