The Voices In Our Head

"Don’t let evil conquer you, but conquer evil by doing good.” Romans 12:21

We all have voices inside of us all, speaking to us, leading us one way or another. One I am talking about is the one that keeps us from going that extra distance to make ourselves better. It’s the one that tells us to stay in bed another few “snoozes” when we could rather get up and start being productive. Its the voice that tells us “you are tired, just stop now” when we could give that little extra to push us over the hump. It’s the voice that comes in your workout and tells you that you are tired and should quit where you are, when we know that if we just find another 20 seconds of effort we can accomplish something that we never could have before. It is the one that keeps us from being great and truly reaching potential!

There is another voice inside of us that combats the negativity! Unfortunately we succumb to the negative side so much that we forget that it is there. There is a gift in all of us! Its that will to press on, that “little extra”. It’s the one that will unlock you from being average, and start you on the path to being great!

 What would happen if you start to listen to this voice? Your days will become more productive, your workouts will become more intense and fulfilling, that diet that you struggle with will begin to get easier and easier. That addiction you have struggled with will begin to disappear and soon become a thing of the past.

How do we make a habit of going that little extra? Its much simpler than it seems…learn to say “yes” to it! Try it once today! Just one time will get you the start to saying “yes”, and then comes the second time, the third, and so on till it becomes a habit, and that’s the best habit we can form. Forming a habit of not quitting, pressing on, moving forward, will make you an over comer! When we do this my friends, the sky is the limit!!
