Book Description
Tim Hiller was in the throes of NFL training camp striving for a prized spot on the Indianapolis Colts' roster, when six words abruptly changed his course: \"We have to let you go.\" Like Tim, we are all striving for something every minute of the day, everyday-career aspirations, social status, better parenting, friendship, love, fame, financial security, achievement, and more. In most cases, these are noble and understandable pursuits. Our time is short. Our lives are busy. We want these things now. But do they even matter? Our careers will end, our friends and family will all pass someday, and our finances can't leave this world with us. Someone will reject us. Ultimately, the world will forget our accomplishments. But what if we instead strive for the best thing possible-both in this life, and the eternal one to come? In Strive, former collegiate and NFL quarterback Tim Hiller leads you on a year-long journey, taking small steps each week on the path to making your life matter... to developing more and more into the person God designed you to be. Hiller provides daily encouragement, challenges, and resources-straight from God's word-to help each of us Strive toward a life of significance. Our lives are short. Together, let's pursue what matters.

Book Description
Stop chasing happiness and seek fulfillment instead Strive shakes up everything you know about happiness, turns you around, and sets you on the track to true fulfillment. It's not what you think—happiness is not found in achievement and luxury and having all the free time in the world. Humans are most fulfilled and feel best about themselves when they are striving towards a difficult goal that involves struggle and discomfort. Dr. Adam Fraser is a peak performance researcher who helps people strive for ’better’ in everything that they do; in this book, he shares his insights into the human condition and why happiness always feels just out of reach. Whether you're looking to boost workplace productivity, or just need the motivation to go about your daily life, this book will show you the little-known truths about happiness, purpose, and fulfillment. In working with groups from all around the world, Dr. Fraser has observed that the unhappiest and most unfulfilled people have low levels of struggle and challenge. Too much comfort robs them of a sense of purpose; they have nothing to strive for, because everything is fine the way it is. This book takes you inside the root of human motivation to show you how to live and work toward fulfillment. Grow and evolve through embracing discomfort Reframe struggle as an opportunity for development Learn the three behaviours of striving effectively Discover your motivation—and use it Learn why you are most proud of overcoming the hard things in life When you're working toward a goal, you are engaged, motivated, and ready to take on the world. Once you achieve your goal, your happiness plummets—because nothing is left to strive for—unless you set your next goal right away. Strive provides the roadmap, and shows you how the joy is in the striving—not the destination.

Strive With Me

Languages : en
Pages : 150
Book Description
“I chose you. I appointed you to go and produce lasting fruit.” Jesus spoke these words to His disciples on the eve of His death. His disciples were with Him for three years while He trained them in order to send them into the world. Jesus had every expectation they would continue the mission and bear fruit. This would prove they were truly His disciples. Therefore, are we truly followers of Jesus if we opt-out of fulfilling His mission? Can we say our lives are committed to Jesus if we have little concern for His plan? To answer these questions, we must begin to examine what type of gospel we believe. The gospel we believe will produce the disciple we become. In addition, we will reproduce what we know in the lives of others. Reproducing a false gospel or an incomplete gospel perpetuates an unhealthy cycle. At best, this cycle produces immature Christians and at worst, it produces false converts. It is imperative we begin here. Jesus spoke often of the Kingdom of God, but do we know what this means or why it is important? We should know because the Kingdom of God is the context for the gospel and the Great Commission. Like the gospel, the Kingdom of God is a necessary talking point for all other talking points found in this book. Strive with Me invites women into a process that unfolds with each chapter. It calls women to come with teachable hearts which are open to honest self-reflection and examination of our Christian women’s culture. It invites women to abandon patterns hindering them from fulfilling what Jesus commanded them to do. It challenges women to deconstruct unbiblical cycles, focus their minds on Scripture, and participate in the mission of the Kingdom of God. Challenging books on these topics have been written by some godly men. We need their wisdom. However, it is time we as women take a hard look into our lives and our circles too. It is time we answer the call to abide in the Scriptures, grow spiritually according to the biblical definition, and make disciples. We are responsible to train and raise up the next generation of women. Jesus has appointed us to accomplish this task while there is still breath in our lungs and so prove to be His disciples. Will you answer the call?
