What are you 40 days away from if you tried and had a plan?

In today’s pod John & Jim reveal their thoughts on what we might be 40 days away from if we tried and had a plan . . . and the incredible impact following through will have on both our life and our leadership.

You can listen to Episode 193 here. The video version is available here.

Better physical shape – what would happen over the next 40 days if we:

• Had a dessert or sweet treat only once per week?
• Walked for 30 minutes 4 days per week? Or visited the gym 3-4 times per week?
• Kept track of our weight in a journal for the sake of accountability.

Better relational hygiene – what would happen over the next 40 days if:

• We spent at least 1 hour per week with a close friend.
• We let him know what God has been talking to us about.
• We talked with each other about our wins and our struggles.

A better marriage – what would happen over the next 40 days if:

• We consistently carved out space daily to communicate with our spouse.
• We actively listened to her, and she actively listened to us?
• We worked through our calendars together on a weekly basis.
• Encouraged each other to pursue our God-given dreams.

A deeper walk with Jesus – what would happen over the next 40 days if:

• We weren’t in a hurry in our devotional time.
• We had a game plan for Bible reading/study.
• We had a game plan for our prayer assignment.
• We journaled.

Nothing worth having comes easy. Progress in life and in leadership requires a plan. A time limit. Accountability.
