Life's Replay Button
/It would be great if our lives came with a replay button. However, what would you do with a replay button? Would you change some things or would you keep living the same?
I believe we all would change some things. We would examine the footage of our life and make the necessary changes to be successful.
Since we do not have a literal replay button, how do we examine the footage of our lives?
Understanding Your Replay Button
Everyone’s replay button is different, but we all have one.
For me, my replay button consists of 2-3 meditation periods a day. I know it may seem hard to find time to meditate, but it works for me. It allows me to reflect on the past and how I can live better in the present.
You have to do whatever it takes to make your life a success.
Along with my meditation periods, I love Getting Out of My Fog and Getting into the F.O.G (click on the link). In the face of God, He reveals amazing things about His plans for my life. His stored memory is much better than my memory. God has a great memory and unlimited bonus footage of men and women in the Bible that has attempted to do it the wrong and right way. So, I love having God as a replay button.
You can use trustworthy people who love you. It may be a parent, sibling, spouse, friend, etc.; the key is he or she must be loving and trustworthy to you! A loving and trustworthy person will not sit by and watch you fail at life. Before that happens, they will intervene with their love.
If you love to write like I do, your replay button may be writing. Start a journal. Start writing about what happens during your days. You will then be able to keep track of valuable factual information that one day you can look back and find positive or negative patterns in your life.
No matter what your replay button may be, you need to understand your own person replay button.
