Pursuing Goals God’s Way: Goal Planning and Business Strategy for Christian Entrepreneurs

Hey Winner,

Our mistake is to think that following Jesus consists in loving our enemies, giving the second mile, turning the other cheek, suffering patiently and hopefully - while living the rest of our lives just as everyone else around us does... It's a strategy bound to fail.

We all want the life offered in the verses of Matthew 11, but are we willing to adopt the lifestyles? Do we see it worth the cost? John Mark Comer points out that "Your life is the product of your lifestyle."

Lifestyle = How you spend your time. How you spend your money. The rhythms of your day.

How do we get out of the crazy cycle and truly change? Truly see Matt 11 play out? We need to not only adopt Jesus' theology and ethics, but also his lifestyle.

Let's talk about how!

Rooting for you ~ Gabe

Hey Winner,

We’re coming up on the end of the year, and I’m wondering if you are taking any time to dream? Are you thinking about what 2024 could bring? Are you making any plans? Setting any goals?

Or are you stuck in the grind of the day-to-day and don’t know how to let yourself dream?

If you’re in either of those categories, this episode is for you. We’re going to break through some barriers to dreaming and create some plans for the new year together. And to do this, I am bringing on the fabulous Polly Payne, the CEO and founder of Horacio Printing.

I figured who best to bring on the podcast to end this year strong than one of the biggest dreamers out there! You’re not going to want to miss our conversation, so grab a paper and pen, and let’s do some dream planning together.

Rooting for you ~ Gabe

Hey Winner,

What would you do with more time? Would you learn the guitar? Would you take more risks? Go on more adventures? Write a book? I'm sure you, like I, would find a way to fill that time (and then we'd just be longing for more). What a crazy cycle, right?

Time is not the answer.

I love how John Mark puts it. He says, "The solution to an overbuys life is not more time. It's to slow down and simplify our lives around what really matters."

We live in a culture that wants no limits. That wants to be their full potential plus some. And, of course, living up to your potential is a good thing, but we also have to accept our limitations. We are only human, after all.

If time isn't the solution, then what is?

Hey Winner,

What is the magic formula to growth in your online business? Is there a secret to getting more done in the time that we have? How can we move forward in our goals without stress and hustle?

It almost seems impossible, doesn't it? Well, there is a little secret (or maybe not secret) formula you can follow to make this happen including three things:

1. Getting crystal clear on what you do

2. Putting blinders on

3. Remaining in God

Let's talk about the importance of each one and how they'll "magically" help you grow!

Hey Winner,

Are you enjoying the ruthless elimination of hurry as much as I am?

Psychologists now have a label for what we're experiencing. They call it "hurry sickness." We have created our own disease!

The definition I relate to? From an article in Psychology today: "A malaise in which a person feels chronically short of time, and so tends to perform every task faster and to get flustered when encountering any kind of delay."

Let's talk about the 3 symptoms of hurry sickness and take a self-diagnosis of where we fall on the spectrum. Once we know what symptoms we have, we can do something about it.

Hey Winner,

My favorite way to prep for the week is to have a meeting with myself, and I rarely miss it because it sets me up for success from the start. In my weekly meeting, I pull out my Asana project management system, my calendar on the phone, my large paper desk planner, and my meal plan sheet. Today I'm giving you all the details!

Hey Winner,

In 1370 in Germany the first clock tower was erected, and historians argue that that was a pivotal point that shifted our relationship with time.Before that, time was more natural. You went to bed when it was dark and got up when it was light.

Novel concept, right? Things were a bit faster in the summer and slower in the winter, and before Thomas Edison invented the light bulb, do you know how much an average person slept a night? 11 hours! Now we're luck to sleep 7.

When we gained more time back due to technology, it was a way to busy ourselves even more because now we could get more done.

What are you doing at a red light or in line at the grocery store or while waiting to pick up your kids from school? Or even on a walk? Is it second nature to pull out your phone?

So I pose that question to you... what is all this distraction, addiction, and pace of life doing to your soul?

It's time for a reset, my friend.

Hey Winner,

Are you starting to notice that social media is not really the booming place for business marketing as it once was? The effectiveness of social media marketing has definitely dwindled over time, and it’s become more of a noisy negative place to hang out. 

We create eye-appealing graphics, write content to connect, and spend so much time doing it for it to be seen all of 10 seconds. So what’s the alternative? Is there one? How do we market our online businesses in a more strategic way without having to spend all our time doing it?

Well, my friend Cheryl Cosner from Sheep School is joining me today to share more about some of the “old school” ways to market our businesses.

You aren’t going to want to miss this episode if you don’t want to build your online business with social media but you’re feeling stuck for ideas to get your products and services noticed.

Hey Winner,

I invite you to join me on this journey of ruthlessly eliminating hurry. Now, that doesn't mean you can't have goals and dreams. It doesn't mean stop everything you're doing. It means stop being so busy that you're always in a hurry.

Corrie Ten Boome put it near perfectly when she once said that if the devil can't make you sin, he'll make you busy.

So true, right? Think about it... when we're too busy, we don't have time to sit and be still. We don't have time to help our neighbor in need. We don't have time for deep conversations or connections. We're just moving at lightning speed without too much intention trying to get it all done.

We could say Jesus was busy too, but he was never in a hurry. We are called to work and be fruitful for the things that matter. You may have a full schedule, but it's when we are always in a hurry, always feeling behind, when it becomes our greatest enemy.

The first thing we need to do is recognize the hurry. Then, slowly, we can do something about it.

Hey Winner,

Are you working to grow your online business but feeling stressed and overwhelmed with the too-much-going-on? Are you juggling work, home, and your business? Are you feeling like you have to constantly choose between family and work? Are you still feeling the constant pull to continue slaving away to social media but it’s bogging down your time?

Let’s talk about it!

To help me out with this, I have my new friend Toni-Ann on the show, and she knows what a packed schedule is like. She is a full-time dentist, a reservist in the Navy, and the podcaster at Real Happy Mom. She is a wife and a boy mom that understands the struggle of juggling work and home. 

And she’s going to not only share her experience going “off-grid” from social media, but also two key routines that she’s implemented to eliminate the stress and overwhelm so that she can make progress on her goals – and she helps others do the same thing.
