Cup of Hope - Broken Pieces (PART 2)

I placed my cup of Hope in the sink and let the tub fill with bubbly water. I reached into the hot soapy water and picked up the cup with my left hand. I made a single swipe through the inside of the cup with the dishcloth, then, "Drop! Splash! CRASH!" My special cup of Hope was broken.

I fished broken pieces from the water. At first glance, it looked as though the handle was all that had been broken. 'No problem,' I thought. 'I can superglue it back together and it will be as good as new.' Upon further inspection though, I realized the cup housed a crack that ran from the center of the base completely to the brim.

My first reaction was disgust with myself. I chastised myself for removing it from its perch atop my desk. And as silly as it may seem, I mourned the loss of my cup.

You see, I had been broken in spirit for quite a while. Even though I continued in writing words of encouragement and hope for others to be uplifted, I felt as though I was traveling downhill fast. I felt alone, desolate and barren. I was disappointed in myself. I felt as though there was no hope left for me. All my dreams and hopes seemed to be in shambles and my heart and emotions were in a wrangled, trodden mess.

My broken cup of Hope had symbolized the culmination of my work as a writer. Now, just as the broken cup lay in pieces, so did my heart.

I placed my hands on the counter and stood there for a moment. I prepared myself to throw the cup in the garbage with the rest of the trash. In that very moment of hurt and brokenness, God spoke to my heart, and I realized not all was lost.

Sure, the cup was broke. No, I would not be able to drink from it again. But it could be fixed. The pieces that remained could be glued together. It was the perfect size to pot a small houseplant. A new function would take place of the old. Something beautiful could be planted in it. New hope would spring forth!

Psalm 34:18 says, "The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit." (NIV) At some point, we all face heartache. We each feel the pain of a broken heart. We are wounded by words or deeds. Sometimes it feels like our heart is too cracked and fractured to be put together again. We feel exposed, given out and scraps of the person we used to be. We may even tell ourselves that we are too broken to be of any use to God again.

Even in the midst of our brokenness, there is still hope. It is in these times of sorrow that God is nearest to us. In our very lowest moments, He is there to rescue us from our hurt and despair.

We may look at the shreds of evidence of what we once were and think that it is not possible to make any sense of it all. Feelings of hopelessness and abandonment may tell us we'll never be good enough again.

God picks up the pieces. He holds them gently in His nail-scarred hands. He puts us back together again, with His tender love and mercy. When he does, we are never the same again.

Through His forgiveness and grace, we are made whole once more. No, we will never be the same. We can never go back and do things the way we did before. This time there is a greater purpose for our lives. From broken pieces sprouts new life!

Joy & Health

You and I were created to have joy. Many times we get ourselves into health problems trying to meet everybody's expectations. We live in a society that has high demands on us in all areas of our lives. Our youth are suffering from diseases that used to be categorized for the elderly. It's so easy not to match up to what the world says we should be ... and that results in our not accepting ourselves either ... which results in health problems.

Jesus said when He was about to leave, "I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete." (John 15:11). His Spirit gives us the power to believe that joy is our birthright because the Lord has made this day for us to be joyful. We have the power to accept our day as His gift or to reject it as "not good enough!" We can make everything okay in our mind and bodies, even if things are sadly wrong around us. We have that power, but we must choose to use it. "This is the day the Lord has made, I WILL rejoice and be glad in it."

Keep your focus on what God expects of us and not what the media, and people, and we expect of ourselves. He made creation for us to enjoy and if you spend some time in it on a regular basis, you will find the power to slow down and find aspects of God that you never knew. I'm convinced that Nature itself tells us more about God than any books.

Get alone in a piece of woods and you will be amazed at how much God can accomplish in you if you give Him your undivided attention. Don't let the day-to-day details get you down and unable to dedicate time to your health and well being. If you had a crisis situation you would drop everything and make the time to handle it. Don't wait for a crisis. Take time to let God make you healthy.

Six Guaranteed Ways To Use Time Management Effectively And Kill Procrastination

Ever wondered if there is a trick on how to use time effectively? The main problem with those people trying to achieve in their lives is while they appear to be busy, the results are not on the board. Sound familiar?

The Importance Of Time Management

The trick is concentrating on the end result rather than appearing to be busy. This achieves nothing and more often than not you'll end up running around in circles chasing your tail! No one can control time but the secret is how well and how productively you use it.

For those in business, particularly the work-from-homers, the toughest part is getting going. No one is looking over their shoulders and the only person they are accountable to is themselves. This is a real problem. It's a breeding ground for the biggest killer of people trying to use time effectively...procrastination.

How To Beat Procrastination

Using my case history as an example, as a writer, procrastination hampered my time management efforts to the point of sheer frustration. Don't get me wrong, I love to write and have written thousands upon thousands of words.

My problem was, when I had a project to complete without a deadline attached to it, I'd get into a comfort zone and any good time management principles would fly out the window! This was bad, particularly being on my own with no one to account to.

Even though the money was good, for some reason it still wasn't enough incentive to start punching away on my keyboard. I'd sit at my computer and surf the net or, I'd look up at the ceiling and count the vents or, I'd look out the window and try to guess what make and model car would zoom by next...frustrating!

It was procrastination at it's worst. Other procrastination issues facing people include fear of failure, waiting for the right time, no set goals, being perfectionists or simply being overwhelmed by the task at hand. Is this you? Let's examine some ways you can use your time effectively and bury procrastination once and for all.

Tips To Beat Procrastination

Try these time management exercises on for size!

1. Firstly, confessing to yourself you are procrastinating is vital. Simple fact is, most people know deep down they are but are still not driven enough to do something about it.

2. Appoint someone you respect enough or even fear in some respects to be accountable to. What better way than to self motivate than out of fear.

3. Check your list of things to do and prioritize. Urgent tasks go to the top. If nothing is extremely urgent, then start with something quick and small but make your next task the most unpleasant and difficult on the list. It's like exercise. You do a short warm up to get the stiffness out of your muscles before you begin your main workout.

4. Set yourself rewards. This is a great way to use time effectively. Set small rewards during the day and one major reward at the end. I break my task into time blocks. If it's a three hour writing job, then I'll take a short break every hour. Also, compete against yourself in your own mind. A three hour job completed in two hours fifty minutes means you've got a little extra time to play with.

5. Do one more thing before you retire for the night that will give you a sense of accomplishment. You go to bed in a positive frame of mind and it's one less task you have to do tomorrow. Be careful not to get complacent though.

6. Finally, have your accountability partner call you before the start of each work day to check you've completed each of your listed tasks. You'll probably hate him/her by the end of the month but check your productivity levels and see what a difference it's made!

Good time management is a combination of several factors but unless you have the desire to achieve deep down, then it will probably take a little more than just these time management exercises to get you going!

5 Things I Love About Volunteering

Why do people volunteer their time?

As a volunteer, you don't get paid for donating your time. However, there are benefits in it for you and me when we're unselfish in giving our time to benefit others.

The following are five major reasons why I choose to volunteer. Although I don't receive a check in the mail for my help, these reasons are more motivating than money.

1. I Love Supporting a Cause I Care About

We see and experience things everyday that scream for our help.

God has given me a passion regarding some of them. This passion continues to motivate me to take action and make a difference.

Committing my time and energy to a cause that I am passionate about is energizing.

2. I Love Learning and Demonstrating New Skills

Two things that are important to me are:

  • Continuously learning to improve myself
  • Mentoring others by sharing my knowledge, skills and experiences to help others improve

Volunteering has allowed me many opportunities to do both.

Every volunteer experience has required me to learn and experience new things. I have discovered more about the causes I support. I have also learned and practiced new skills as I have participated in new ways.

Donating my time has also provided me many opportunities to mentor. Being a mentor to kids and to other volunteers continues to be very rewarding.

3. I Love Making New Friends

I've made a significant number of new friends through my volunteering efforts.

Some of the kindest people that I have met were employees and volunteers of nonprofit organizations.

This is not a coincidence. These are people who are willing to dedicate some of their time or even their career to making the world a better place.

These are the kind of friends that are worth meeting and keeping.

4. I Love the Great Feeling It Brings

Have you ever taken a meal to someone who was sick or paid for stranger's cup of coffee for no reason at all? If you haven't, give it a try. If you have, then you already know the great feeling you receive when doing something unselfish for someone else.

The feeling you get is no different when volunteering your time to a cause you are passionate about.

I feel great when I have the opportunity to help someone. In fact, I have found the feeling can be addictive. As I support an important cause with my time, I want to do even more to make a difference.

5. I Love Making a Difference

I want the way I live my life to make a difference. I know that you want that for yourself as well. Volunteering has provided me a significant way to do just that.

By donating just a portion of our time, we can:

  • Make a difference in a person's life
  • Make the world a better place to live
  • Have a long-lasting impact

You can find volunteer opportunities everywhere. Look for opportunities at schools, churches, parks, community organizations, political organizations and charities.

Get involved in something that you care about and start making a difference. You will be glad you did.

Adopting Effective Time Management Habits And Tips Are Keys To Success

As more and more people are getting into a hectic lifestyle, a need to have a good time management techniques that built-in part of your life, you have to follow some simple requirements. You no longer have the luxury to waste valuable time in your day.

We can't control the way time is. We can't make it less or more. However, we can control the way we handle the spare moments in our day. We can make changes on how we use our time, and that can benefit us if we are able to get more done in one day.

Following simple time management techniques can help you get more out of life. You can pay attention to your home life, work and appointments without ignoring any one of them. It all comes down to your time management technique.

However, to adopt effective time management habits there are some things you should be doing. To begin with, you will need to use time management tools. It does not matter if you are using a paper-based to-do list system, a day timer or a complicated software program.

Step #1 - Physically managing your time

The first step to physically managing your time is to know where the time is going. You can plan how you are going to spend your time in the future because work will be done earlier. There are many different ways to set this up quickly.

What are the useful tips for effective time management

It does not matter how you keep track of everything. Just make sure you figure out some way to physically manage your time. This way you know how you are going to spend your time. You should make sure you prioritize with these tasks.

Put all of the projects you have to have done on the top of the list. The things that can wait can go on the bottom of the list. Make sure you know out of all your tasks which ones you have to accomplish. Then set the goal to how far you have to get on the list for each day.

What to do if running a single person business entity?

If your business is a one-man show, change things and hire someone to take over some of the workload for you. You should always have at least one other person to take over some of the workload and make things easier for you. Most probably you can offload a lot of the repetitive, dull work of managing the daily routine of a business to other people – that way you can schedule your time in other forms for other projects.

Good, effective time management can help you to get the most out of your business. If you do combine with someone to help with the load, make sure they understand you make all the rules and schedules (that is, don't turn over the business to them).

With proper and effective time management, you need to establish a routine and stick to it as much as you possibly can. While things will happen to get in your way, you'll be more productive if you can follow the routine most of the time.

This way people get to know what your time frames are and this makes it easier for them to help you do what you need to get done. Another part of making sure that you actually get things done is to get in the habit of setting (and meeting) time limits for the tasks needing to be completed.

How to eliminate activities that waste time?

Reading and answering e-mail can consume a big portion of your day. Make sure you only allow a certain amount of time for checking the mail, and then ensure that you stick to that schedule.

What about talking on the phone?

If you know you are wasting too much time chatting on the Internet with people who interrupt you, make it so no one can contact you during certain hours. This way you won't be wasting your time and will be practicing effective time management.

Another good (or bad) time-waster is "looking for information". You need to be organized to have effective time management. You need to be able to have the files or information you need at your fingertips.

Make sure you set your system up so everything falls in an orderly fashion. This way you can always find something in a hurry. This will help you to speed up the progress of your project or day.

If you are stuck in an office waiting, don't waste your time. Always bring a pad of paper and a pen if you can. At the very least, you can organize your day by writing down your plans.

If it is something else you can take with you for a project, it's even better. You can control your life, but you can't control time. Get organized today and use effective time management to meet your life goals.

I desire to thank you for visiting. Go up before and look around to discover other helpful tips and information.

Even though, you may now know how to adopt effective time management habits and tips to be a successful person, but all words no actions is simply does not make your goals come true.

Take action now is the most right thing to do if you want you goals realized. Without an effective and proper time management system, there will not be much goal-oriented lifestyle to hope for.

Understanding the fact that an effective program for time management habit may be easy to follow and implement and now allowing you to side-track is really allowing you to enjoy your life once again. So, please do not wait any longer before giving another excuse to realize your goals again.

Beware of some "Get Cash Now" Vendors

Some weeks it feels like you're living hand to mouth. If you could just get cash now, all your problems would disappear. If you could get cash now, you could pay off a handful of bills and move on. But how long would it last until you needed to "get cash now" again? On every block there seem to get cash now offices, with signs in the window that read "paycheck advance" or "payday advance." But can they really get cash now, or is it a false claim?

Basically what happens is this: You show up with your paycheck, hoping to get cash now, and they charge you a check fee, and, if it's your first time there, a "first time" fee. You will likely take a number and have to wait with others hoping to get cash now, and then fill out extensive paperwork detailing your reasons for having to get cash now. Sometimes you will denied, other times you will be able to get cash now, but it will be only a fraction of the amount shown on your paycheck. To get cash now you must be willing to extract a smaller amount than you are technically owed from the person who issued the check. This is because when you're desperate to get cash now, people may take advantage of you. They know that you're in a financially precarious situation and will be willing to give up some of the money in order to get cash now.

To really get cash now, you'd be better off asking for a personal loan from a trusted friend or relative. To get cash now there always seems to be strings attached. Remember, the get cash now offices you see on your street are a business. They aren't going to get you cash now out of the kindness of their hearts.
