Today we're tackling a topic that plagues so many of us - procrastination. We've all been there, putting things off until the last minute, letting tasks pile up, and then feeling stressed and overwhelmed. But do you know the real root cause behind why You procrastinate?

In todays episode we will dive into that plus Destiny shares some practical tips for overcoming this productivity-killing habit once and for all.

Procrastination is often rooted in deeper fears, such as the fear of failure, fear of not being good enough, or even fear of success. When we avoid a task, we don't have to face those fears head-on. Procrastination gives us a false sense of security and control.

To overcome procrastination, we need to:

• Identify the root fear causing the procrastination

Ask yourself: "What am I afraid of regarding this task or goal?" Journal about your thoughts and analyze if they hold any truth or align with your values and vision.

• Pray and give that fear over to God

Fear is a natural human emotion, but it should not be the driving force behind our decisions and actions.

• Break the task down into manageable steps

Visualize the task as a staircase, and focus on taking one step at a time.

• Confront your fears with resilience and determination

Recognize that the potential rewards of facing challenges outweigh the temporary discomfort.

In this episode Destiny shares four practical steps that have helped her move from striving to grace:

• Identify striving patterns and triggers

Each of us possesses unique abilities and strengths that, when utilized in harmony with our passions and aspirations, can lead to a sense of fulfillment and success. Join me on today’s episode as I share three ways to actively align your passions to your purpose.

• Self- Reflection

The connection between your interests, talents, and greater purpose lies in finding the intersection point where they all align. This is why self reflection is crucial to identifying what that looks like for you.

• Set a clear goal

Focus on this goal and then break it don into smaller task. Write all the things you need to do in order to achieve this goal.

• Take Action

It’s important to give yourself deadlines because it keeps you focused and accountable to yourself. When we align our talents and skills with our purpose, we are stepping into the unique calling and mission that God has prepared for us.

Ephesians 2:10 & 1 Peter 4:10

We're taught from a young age to avoid failure at all costs, to strive for perfection, to never settle for anything less than success. But what if I told you that failure is not the end of the road, but rather a stepping stone to growth and self-discovery?

Join me on todays episode as we take a moment to pause, reflect, and ponder the deeper meanings of Good Friday.

Good Friday serves as a powerful reminder that through our faith in Christ, we are blessed with resilience - the inner strength to withstand trials, grow from our experiences, and emerge with a renewed sense of purpose and conviction. Today, as we take a moment to pause, I invite you to reflect with me on two introspective questions.

Question #1: What lessons can I learn from Christ's unwavering faith and courage in the face of suffering and betrayal?

Question #2: How can I embody the spirit of sacrifice, forgiveness, and love demonstrated by Jesus on the cross in my daily life?
