Somewhere along the way, we probably got distracted by everything that competes for our attention. This confusion doesn’t come from a bad place necessarily, and I find myself mixing them up all the time. We need to connect the dots from what we have heard about our faith to what we actually do with our faith. We are so distracted by the things happening around us that we overlook what God could be doing within us.

“The problem for you is probably the same problem I have all the time. You have just created the space for an abundance of joy and purpose to come flooding into your life.” Write your “Declaration Against Distraction” and then buckle up.

What about asking for permission to do the things you already have permission to do? You will only be as free as you actually believe you are. I’m out.” What about shame or people-pleasing? Kick them to the curb. Put that nonsense on notice because you’re quitting it entirely. Do you need a sentence about negative self-talk? Write it down. Did you know the Declaration of Independence is only thirty-six sentences long? If a ragtag patchwork of colonies broke up with England in thirty-six sentences, you can break up with your distractions in a dozen. Make room for a couple of new routines that lead to who you are becoming, then replace all the earlier habits you adopted that obscured the path. Declare yourself completely free from the distractions and habits and activities that have become familiar but are no longer serving you.

I know it will be awkward to make the needed changes, but make them anyway. You might need to break up with your past. First, have the difficult talk with yourself you’ve been deferring. “So, where do you start? Well, there are as many starting points as you have excuses. Distraction robs us of the ability to both live in the moment and discern what lasts.” Everything else will look like a distraction by comparison. “Here’s a truth you can take to the bank no matter how long you live: The clarity of purpose, undistracted energy, selfless love, and unselfish pursuits you bring to the world will be your legacy. I’ll share with you five of my favorite quotes from the book to wet your whistle and hopefully motivate you to read it, too. Filled to the brim with so many great quotes, thought-provoking questions and actionable takeaways coupled with his signature whimsy, light and heart for God and for people, this book is the perfect antidote to being distracted and reminds you to hone in on who you uniquely are in the midst of 100 things that may be pulling you in different directions. It emboldens you to dive in, be available, emancipate whatever holds you back from living your purpose (people, places, things, thoughts, etc), to have a keen eye to discern what’s true and meant to last and to fully dive deep into the goodness + grace offered to you.
