Projected to win gold the fans waited in anticipation for the gun to sound.\u00a0 Derek stretched his hands and placed them on the starting line.\u00a0 The shot rang across the stadium and Derek blasted out like a thorough bread horse asserting his dominance.\u00a0 The race was promising, and all went according to plan.\u00a0 As he entered the first turn and in command of the race, Derek pulled up lame after his hamstring was torn.\u00a0 The fans rose around the stadium as he pulled up lame grabbing the back of his leg and hobbling in pain.<\/p><p>The world will never remember who won gold in that particular Olympics, but Derricks actions left a lasting legacy.\u00a0 Refusing to quit the race and despite officials discouraging him to continue he hobbled across the track with a cheering crowd behind him.\u00a0 Bursting on to the field was his father who faced resistance from officials; just as a lion protects his cubs, his father would not be denied.\u00a0 Derek, never bending to defeat, continued to will himself to the finish line arm in arm with his father, every step of the way.\u00a0 Why is this so significant? The ripple that Redmond left has impacted millions of lives as the story has gone viral and has been written about in countless magazine and newspapers.\u00a0 His act of bravery to finish the race regardless of not obtaining gold has given hope to millions as it continues to this day to reverberate around the globe.\u00a0\u00a0 Today examine what pebble of greatness you hold in your hand.\u00a0 Is it in the arts, music, acts of service or the way you inspire others to dream?\u00a0 Pull it all the way back and launch it&#8230;observe as the ripples touch those around the world today.<\/p><p>As small as your pebble may be, the act of throwing it can cause ripples in the lives of others.\u00a0 You may shoot for gold but realize it is your commitment that leaves an impact for others to follow.\u00a0 The fact that Derek showed up to the stadium, ensured his opportunity to finish.\u00a0 You never know who you will touch or how far the wave you send will travel when you complete what you started.\u00a0 Even if you limp to the finish line the most important thing is you finished.\u00a0 Today I want to provide you with practical steps to help you finish your race.\u00a0 It\u2019s important to plan your work, then work your plan. \u201cThe plans of the diligent lead surely to abundance, but everyone who is hasty comes only to poverty\u201d (Proverbs 21:5).\u00a0 If you don\u2019t have a plan for your day, the day will have a plan for you.\u00a0\u00a0 According to\u00a0 inc.com, \u201ca staggering 92 percent of people that set <a href=\"https:\/\/www.inc.com\/laura-garnett\/6-new-year-s-resolutions-truly-remarkable-ceos-make.html\">New Year&#8217;s goals<\/a> never actually achieve them?

It\u2019s time you finish!\u00a0 Go find the pebble you always wanted to throw and begin to live a life of significance and completion.<\/p><p>Every accomplishment starts with one pebble at a time.\u00a0 Your focus must be from start to finish.\u00a0 According to Luke 14:28 it reveals, \u201cFor which of you, desiring to build a tower, does not first sit down and count the cost, whether he has enough to complete it?\u201d\u00a0 Planning is essential to consider your goals.\u00a0 For some reason this step is skipped over, yet it\u2019s important to map out dates to accomplish your task.\u00a0 \u201cEvery day you&#8217;re juggling multiple balls to keep your business and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.entrepreneur.com\/topic\/personal-life\">personal life<\/a> going, but sometimes you need to focus on one task at a time to see it through to completion or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.entrepreneur.com\/topic\/risk\">risk<\/a> having many incomplete things, \u201cthis according to entrepreneurs.com.<\/p><ol><li><strong> Decide to finish. <\/strong>The first step of finishing is to make the decision that no matter what, the task or project will no longer be postponed. Sometimes this will mean saying no to more things up front, so they never make it on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.entrepreneur.com\/topic\/to-do-list\">to-do list<\/a> to begin with, making it easier to eliminate unnecessary busy work (1). Noah, when directed by God made a decision to build the ark as God instructed, <strong>\u201c<\/strong>Noah did everything just as God commanded him\u201d (Genesis 6:22), He chose in the middle of the doubters to commit to completing the goal. Let\u2019s process several negative questions that could have detracted Noah. He could have thought, \u201cWhere is the flood coming from?\u00a0 How many years will it take and for what purpose?\u201d\u00a0 Sound familiar with your dreams?\u00a0 We can be self-defeating by asking, \u201cWhy are we working so hard when the results are not in plain view?\u201d\u00a0 I could imagine Noah hammering away and having the jeers of his neighbors whispering behind him like a shadow that will not go away, \u201cHow long will it take, isn\u2019t that a waste of time?\u201d\u00a0 Let\u2019s have a Noah resolution, \u201cdecide to finish what you started.\u201d<\/li><\/ol><ol start=\"2\"><li><strong> Make a plan. <\/strong>What&#8217;s the plan? \u201cConsider where you are headed before you start the journey.\u201d It\u2019s like taking a family trip to the beach without planning what you are bringing or how you will arrive at your destination. \u201c&#8230;All things should be done decently and in order\u201d (1 Corinthians 14:40). \u201cBreak down each task into doable, daily action steps, or if it&#8217;s something you can finish in a day, into an hour-by-hour plan to completion.\u201d Often what this means is to carve out time and make others aware that this time is off limits.\u00a0 I have missed the mark often in this area because of not writing it down on a calendar.\u00a0 I would overbook myself which resulted in built up anxiety and frustration.\u00a0\u00a0 I have now reached the point I only book one major meeting or appointment daily and limit how many per week. Within the planning process create long range and short-range goals.\u00a0 Learn to stack the short-range goals and knock those out\u00a0\u00a0 There is a two-minute rule that ensures more efficiency, for example when things come across your plate that you can complete in two minutes, don\u2019t delay it.\u00a0 Don\u2019t allow them to linger because small snowballs lead to large avalanches.\u00a0<\/li><\/ol><ol start=\"3\"><li><strong> Start. \u201c<\/strong>You&#8217;ve made a plan and broken it down into actionable steps to help you attack and complete the project. The next most important step is to start.\u201d \u201cEat the frog,\u201d is a concept based on attacking the hardest and most avoided task first. For example, if you hate to budget and mailing out the bills, then this is the first thing you attack.\u00a0 If you have been distracted from writing the book you have always wanted, completing a project, then allot time first thing in the morning.<\/li><\/ol><p>In addition to getting started first thing in the morning, you can implement a tool I developed called 30\/30.\u00a0 The way it works is to utilize a stopwatch or timer and cycle out 30 minutes for an individual task.\u00a0 When time is up, switch to another activity which provides freshness to the prior task.\u00a0 I will provide and example, if I am creating a video, I will separate thirty minutes to engage in the activity.\u00a0 Once the thirty minutes are up I will transition to a house chore or if I\u2019m at work transition to another activity, perhaps checking emails.\u00a0 It\u2019s important to stay to the time because it creates that feel good chemical dopamine and it maximizes total concentration over a shorter periods time.\u00a0 The longer you spend on a task or goal, studies have shown we are prone to more distractions and encounter more disruptions.\u00a0<\/p><ol start=\"4\"><li><strong> Make your deadlines. <\/strong>By all means, avoid excuses. Commit to finish no matter what. According to entrepreneur.com, \u201cSome days you may have to stay late, skip lunch or come in early to push through to complete the steps of your action plan.\u201d\u00a0 Noah stayed late to build the Ark.\u00a0 In fact, it was roughly 40 years.\u00a0 It was Noah\u2019s commitment that saved his family\u2019s life.<\/li><li><strong> Don&#8217;t just finish, complete. \u201c<\/strong>You&#8217;ve made the decision, made the plan and carried on seeing the project through. It feels great to get a huge task off your plate, but there&#8217;s one last important step to finishing: completion. When the task is done, make sure it&#8217;s complete by ensuring it&#8217;s stored, shared or saved appropriately.\u201d Noah completed his task, as floods came to wash every living soul away, his family was spared. The boat he built was his legacy.\u00a0 In fact, archeologists using 3-D imaging believed to located, in eastern Turkey, located on Mount Ararat (3)<\/li><\/ol><p>As we close our lesson today note the importance of just finishing.\u00a0 It doesn\u2019t matter if you hobble or limp across the finish line act of completion; even the smallest task will build momentum that will propel you forward.\u00a0 Climb each step by first deciding to finish by speaking it into existence.\u00a0 Create a plan of action and start.\u00a0 Each day push through one wave at a time bringing you closer to your goal.\u00a0 Once you have your goal, identify the dates you would like to complete them.\u00a0 Don\u2019t get discouraged with setbacks, because each wave that pushes you back will make you more resilient.\u00a0 And finally, don\u2019t just finish it, but complete it by drawing back and launching your pebble in the ocean of life, for all to see.<\/p><p><b>Dive Deep:<\/b><\/p><ul><li>What have you been postponing that you need to complete?<\/li><\/ul><ul><li>What attitude should you when a task becomes difficult, and you want to give up?<\/li><\/ul><ul><li>What are the 5 steps you will ensure to use to finish your tasks or projects?<\/li><\/ul><p>Resources<\/p><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.inc.com\/marcel-schwantes\/science-says-92-percent-of-people-dont-achieve-goals-heres-how-the-other-8-perce.html\">https:\/\/www.inc.com\/marcel-schwantes\/science-says-92-percent-of-people-dont-achieve-goals-heres-how-the-other-8-perce.html<\/a><\/p><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.entrepreneur.com\/article\/235820\">https:\/\/www.entrepreneur.com\/article\/235820<\/a><\/p><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.israelhayom.com\/2021\/10\/04\/archaeologists-claim-to-have-found-true-location-of-noahs-ark\/\">https:\/\/www.israelhayom.com\/2021\/10\/04\/archaeologists-claim-to-have-found-true-location-of-noahs-ark\/<\/a><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It only takes a small pebble hitting the surface of water to create a large ripple effect.&nbsp; What is the pebble you are willing to [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1354","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-lessons-from-the-ocean"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.7 -
