Procrastination, the thief of time, is one of the devil's most potent weapons for defrauding us of eternal heritage. The

Meaninglessness woos us into spending our one shot at life on insignificant and trivial things. If we are not vigilant, we drift from God's glorious ambition for our lives, losing sight of anything remotely grand, trading God-instilled passion for an easier and more often traveled road. And if our hearts aren't awakened by majesty, our lives soon shrink into little bits of nothingness.

Meaninglessness woos us into spending our one shot at life on insignificant and trivial things.

Many things lost in life can be restored; however, time misused can never be recovered. Once the sun goes down, the day is forever gone.

Teach us to make the most of our time… and make our efforts successful. Yes, make our efforts successful! —Psalm 90:12, 17 NLT

Life is now in session. Are you present?

If you do the things you need to do when you need to do them, then someday you can do the things you want do when you want to do them.

You could use the 80/20 rule. Give 80 percent of your effort to the top 20 percent (most important) activities. Another way is to focus on exceptional opportunities that promise a huge return. It comes down to this: give your attention to the areas that bear fruit.

The Right Thought plus the Right People in the Right Environment at the Right Time for the Right Reason = the Right Result

The younger you are, the more likely you will give your attention to many things. That's good because if you're young you're still getting to know yourself, your strengths and weaknesses. If you focus your thinking on only one thing and your aspirations change, then you've wasted your best mental energy. As you get older and more experienced, the need to focus becomes more critical. The farther and higher you go, the more focused you can be—and need to be.

If you want to reach your potential and become the person you were created to be, you must do much more than just experience life and hope that you learn what you need along the way. You must go out of your way to seize growth opportunities as if your future depended on it.

When you live each day with intentionality, there's almost no limit to what you can do. You can transform yourself, your family, your community, and your nation. When enough people do that, they can change the world. When you intentionally use your everyday life to bring about positive change in the lives of others, you begin to live a life that matters.
