I attended a meeting tonight where there was a laser coaching session. A lady volunteered to be coached who said she had "no idea" what she wanted to do with her life - she indicated that she felt totally unself-actualized.
It was interesting because I come across many people who feel the same way. They don't know what they want their in their lives, they feel powerless and they are struggling to find meaning and purpose in their existence.
I didn't get a chance to speak with her in the room but once I was outside I felt compelled to call out to her as she headed toward her car.
We chatted for awhile and I found myself suggesting that she find a good Bible to read that will explain everything more clearly. I suggested Joyce Meyer's "Everyday Living" Bible because she has all of these great Life Tips and makes the Biblical stories soooo relevant to today. The other day I picked up a KJV of the Bible and I thought, whoa, no wonder so many people struggle with reading it because of the "thiseth" and the "thateh." I LOVE the original KJV of many Bible verses, but sometimes it's almost impossible to get the practical meaning of the scripture in Old English.
That said, I directed the lady to Joyce Meyer's Bible and suggested that she read the book of Romans for starters. It is my favorite book in the Bible and once you understand and truly appreciate the meaning of being a follower of Jesus Christ as told in Romans, it will take on a whole new meaning for you and you will never be the same. It is POWERFUL!
I sincerely hope this lady will find the "peace that surpasses all understanding" in reading and embracing scripture.
I didn't go to the meeting thinking that I would wind up sharing marketplace spirituality. But I did and it turned out to be a "chance witness."

The D28 Zone
I wish I could claim this thought as mine, but unfortunately I cannot. It is the brainchild of one of my favorite success teachers and trainers -- Mr. Doug Firebaugh. The D28 Zone refers to all the promises God gives in Deuteronomy 28. I won't go into detail here but all I can do is encourage you to read the first 8 verses of Deuteronomy 28 and claim it all as yours. I also encourage you to check out Doug Firebaugh's success church which takes place on Sunday nights at 10 pm. Eastern at http://www.successchurch.com/. If you need to get a "fire" started in your life, then Doug Firebaugh is the man. He is an ordained minister and just one of the most articulate people I know to break down the Word of God into bite-size pieces so that you finally get it. Thank you, Doug, for a powerful session tonight and last week, too!

You Can Always Start in the Middle
In case you missed out on the start of the 40-day Thinking Fast, this is something that you can always pick up in the middle. So many people are concerned about detoxing and fasting from food, they need to be concerned about fasting from negative thoughts. This fast has truly changed my life and I know it can change yours, too!
I will be posting soon in neuroplasticity. Believe it or not, this fast is all about the Bible, the brain and neuroplasticity! For a preview, visit my website: http://www.coachlikeme.com.
