Introduction

M omentuma great word for a powerful life. I believe without a doubt that Gods will for you is momentum. He wants you to let go of whatever holds you back. His best is for you and me to grow, increase, and be more than what we are today.

Im a big sports fan. I love basketball, football, golf, and many other sports. (Yes, I even love watching golf.) Of course, the word momentum is frequently mentioned in nearly every event I watch. Why? Because its such a key to a teams or individuals success. Those little successes building one upon another lead to the best results. I recently heard a basketball coach on the radio saying, Weve got momentum. Weve won nine games in a row. We expect to win every game we play now. The players are more confident when they shoot and consequently make more shots.

Heres why I wrote this book: I want you to win more games and make more shots. As you read this book, I believe you will capture and increase momentum in your life. The Bible says you can be confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ (Phil. 1:6). So let me ask you this question: Is God finished with you yet?

The good news is that youre not in this all alone. God is with you every step of the way. One of my favorite Scripture verses says it best: For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord , plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future (Jer. 29:11 NIV).

Be confident and receive Gods momentum for your life.

Stay Out of Your Own Way H eres the first rule of winning dont defeat - photo 2

Stay Out of Your Own Way

H eres the first rule of winning: dont defeat yourself. Your biggest enemy is you. When you find yourself getting in your own way, youre like a refrigeratorslowly gathering ice, which, if allowed to accumulate unchecked, will reduce its effectiveness to nothing. God wisely designed the human body so we could neither pat our own backs nor kick ourselves too easily.

The first and best victory is to conquer yourself. Dwight L. Moody said, I have never met a man who has given me as much trouble as myself. All significant battles are waged within ones self. Dont build a case against yourself.

When you find yourself standing in your own way, youll always hope vaguely and dread precisely. Talk back to your internal critic. If you want to move your greatest obstacle, realize that your obstacle is yourselfand that the time to act is now (Nido Qubein).
