Tackle It or Take It!

In life’s journey we face situations that require us to make decisions if we want to live successfully. It could be a job situation, a relationship issue or a feeling that causes low productivity, stagnation, or emotional discomfort. In order to move forward you will have to take some action. There are generally two choices that will get you where you want to be so you can resolve the problem. You can TACKLE IT or TAKE IT. The pathway you choose is determined by your abilities, wants and resources. Let’s break it down -

1. Tackling it means to get a hold of the issue and wrestled it down until it screams “uncle”. Take actions to resolve it so it is no longer a barrier to growth.

2. Take it means to accept it. Accept that your husband will never put down the toilet seat or that your wife will always ask 20 consecutive questions the minute you walk through the door. Accept that it is okay to be sad at times but that sadness doesn’t have to run life.

TD Jakes reminds us of our capabilities with this quote, ”To those of us who often procrastinate because of a lack of education or any area of weakness, I relieve you with this statement: It is not how much you know that arms you with the tools of great decision making, but rather how much you ask. Forget the past and MOVE FORWARD in faith. Be assured that God has a blessing moving forward to meet you! “
