Direction, not intention, determines your destination. – Andy Stanley

It’s so easy to get wrapped up in our good intentions and forget to look up and see what our actual direction is.

We intend to lose the weight but are in the car on the way to the drive through again.

We intend to start exercising but our finger is pressing the snooze button again.

We intend to start saving for retirement but our Amazon order history shows something else altogether.

Sometimes our intentions betray our true direction.

But how can we know?

Face the facts.

Look at the scale, look at that bank statement, look at the health of your relationships.

Look at what happens to others with similar intentions and directions. Is everyone else on your path ending up somewhere you don’t want to end up? Might want to change directions.

Time marches on relentlessly, regardless of our intentions or direction.

Might want to make some time to look around and make sure you are marching in the right direction.

Make it a great day.

Jake
