What motivates you?
If it’s money, let me give you a hint. You’ll never have enough. If it’s fame, let me give you another hint. You’ll never be famous enough. If it’s your family, let me ask you this.
Do they get the best of you or the worst of you?
If you died tomorrow, would your life have meant something to someone who needed it to?
Are you building something that outlasts you, or just filling time?
Are you living by your convictions, or just your comfort?
Who are you when no one is watching?
Are you investing in people, or just collecting them?
When’s the last time someone felt truly seen because of you?
You say it matters. Does your calendar agree?
What are you putting off that you already know you should do?
When is enough actually enough?
Are you chasing a life you want, or running from one you’re afraid of?
Do you find yourself crippled by anxiety or stress from worrying? Let me ask you this.
Has there ever been a single moment in your life where any amount of worrying has actually helped you?
Are you living your life, or performing it for people who aren’t even paying attention?
Who are you trying to impress, and do they even really matter to you to work that hard to impress?
How long have you been meaning to change? What’s actually stopping you?
Are you waiting for the right moment? Spoiler: it’s not coming.
Are you so focused on what you don’t have that you can’t see what you do?
When did you last stop and acknowledge how far you’ve already come?
Do you really want peace? What are you doing to achieve that?
Are you trying to control everything and exhausted by it? What would happen if you actually let go?
Are the words you speak over yourself and others building something or tearing it down? When’s the last time you encouraged someone for no reason at all?
What’s the bigger picture?
No matter how small or insignificant you may think you are, you’re bigger to God than you realize. But don’t become so big that you’re the center of your own universe. If God’s not first in your life - over everything you think, say, and do…pray that He helps you see a bigger picture. Don’t be afraid to ask yourself the hard questions.
