A 100% life.
It is possible to have
a 10 out of 10 life.
One of my young clients remarked that his observation
among adults is that most people have a somewhat sad, just below the line,
twilight existence …. lives lived in
semi-depression in need of anti-depressants and chemical substances to keep them going. That is sad, but unfortunately too true.
There must be more to life than this. Something must change - let hear what Moses 6:6 says about this: "Lord, it can't continue like this!" (Disclaimer Moses 6:6 = fictional!).

On Facebook , or "Fakebook" as I love to call it,
and Instagram etc, people try to create the impression of a good life. The real
thing is to create a life that is good on the inside , not only a life that
looks good on the outside.
But let us rather
hear what real wisdom says: Believer or nonbeliever, the words of Jesus In John 10:10 makes real sense .. 10 The thief comes only to steal and kill
and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full. New International Version (NIV). Or more poetic in the old King James Version
(KJV) … I came that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
Many people aim for longevity: The problem with longevity is that you only want to live the full length of what is possible. What about the full width , depth and height of it? Is that just as important? I am more interested in a full life than a long life. Or better still - living life fully!
You say I am an idealist and I dream too big? , I say you think too small. I would like to suggest the following: Ten years from now make sure that you can say you chose, designed and managed your life. You didn't settle for it. Take responsibility to make the best of it.
How?
Here are the steps that I suggest in my “Get a Life in 40
days” programme.
The biggest problem is that people haven’t even defined what
a 100% life would look like. And if they did, it was mostly goals of having
instead of goals of becoming. A 100% life is not lying on the beach under an
umbrella with a drink in your hand with a small little umbrella in it! It is
finding your life purpose and living it to the full!
Here are my short and sweet, steps to design the 100% life
for yourself:

Steps to a 100% life:
Step 1: Accept life as the greatest gift of all ( do not
curse it – use it!)
Step 2: Take 100% responsibility for your life and your own outcomes
Step 3: Ask and
accept help from parents and coaches. A person of faith will enjoy the help and guidance of God.
Step 4: See life as something you have to create: Write the
life story/book, paint the canvass, write the movie script. Decide if you want
to write a love story or a tragedy, and act accordingly.
Step 5: Get the design or definition of what a 100% life consists of at your
life stage. Do it according to your values and according to your life purpose.
Step 6: Do a gap analysis how far you are from your 100%
life
Step 7 Get the steps in place in priority order (The GPS of your life: Goals Priorities and Scheduling)
Step 8. Enjoy the journey and find peace in being en route!
If you do that then you will be able to say in years to come you chose, designed and managed your life, and steered it in the right direction.
