Welcome to the Dare to Dream Podcast with Rev. Lisa Ealy, Episode 2. Today, our episode “Focusing on your Goals” - to manifest your dream job.
I want to take this time first to honor God as the head of my life and the director of all things Lisa including Dare2Dream. Please allow me to read a scripture into your hearing and follow with a prayer.
Scripture: Phil 3:13-16
Beloved,[a] I do not consider that I have made it my own;[b] but this one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead, 14 I press on toward the goal for the prize of the heavenly[c]call of God in Christ Jesus. 15 Let those of us then who are mature be of the same mind; and if you think differently about anything, this too God will reveal to you. 16 Only let us hold fast to what we have attained. (NRSV)
Let us pray – Gracious God, I’m not saying that I have this all together, that I have it made. But I am well on my way, reaching out for Christ, who has so wondrously reached out for me. Friends, don’t get me wrong: By no means do I count myself an expert in all of this, but I’ve got my eye on the goal, where God is beckoning me towards —to Jesus. I’m off and running, and I’m not turning back. So let’s keep focused on that goal, those of us who want everything God has for us. If any of you have something else in mind, something less than total commitment, God will clear your blurred vision—you’ll see it yet! Now that we’re on the right track let’s stay on it. Amen.
Let jump right into our topic today “Focusing on your Goals” - to manifest your dream job.
When we begin to focus on our Goal, we do something called pressing in or leaning in.
So what is Press - It is a steadily applied weight or force, to move in a certain direction, Strain with urgency, haste or great attention. How fitting for our theme “Focus on the Goal, Press towards the goal.” Scripture Says to Press towards the High Calling of Jesus. And that is so applicable to our topic today. What I know to be true is that things that are high or sitting high are often hard or hardest to reach.
We either must stretch, get on our tippy toes, get a stepping stool, or ask for help or unfortunately never reach what it is that we were reaching for in the first place. And that won’t do when we have a goal to reach and no time for delay. So, let’s keep on pressing, keep on reaching and keep on striving to reach and ultimately manifest our dream.
Because the only time of truth is right now. We know that the gift of life is only given right now. We must learn to let go of past if we wish to experience our lives in the present. We must learn to let go of the pull of the future as well.
I heard a wise woman say, “that is future tripping.” which is something that may not ever come to pass, but none the less we are spending today’s energy focusing on it.
Then we have the past, the past is a memory to cherish and to grow from, and the future is promised to no one. Realize Deeply, that the present moment is all you have.
“If your mind carries a heavy burden of past, you will experience more of the same. The past perpetuates itself through lack of presence. The quality of your consciousness at this moment is what shapes the future.” – Eckhart Tolle
“My Presence is my Super Power to create the future I See and Want.” The Future God is calling all of us towards.
Your goals, vision, and mission will drive your ability to achieve your dream career but not just that - it will also dive your ability to achieve your dream life and anything else you desire to manifest. Let me say that again – Your goals, vision, and mission will drive your ability to achieve your dream career but not just that - it will also drive your ability to achieve your dream life land anything else you desire to manifest.
So, keep going - keep pressing - keep leaning in towards the prize of your highest ca
