The Truth About Hustle
Is "hustle" good or bad?
We celebrate it.
We consider it a symbol of productivity.
The more you hustle, the more you win, right?
Or is it?..
Do you know what is driving the "hustle"?
What is really going on underneath that most people don't know about?
What is the TRUTH about "hustle"?
So let's break it down.
Q: Why do you hustle?
A: I want to get more things done?
Q: What is the hurry?
A: Not enough time.
Q: What will happen if you don't hustle?
A: I won't get everything I want done.
Q: What will happen then?
A: I won't get the result I want and I won't have enough ______.
Do you see what I see?
When you look at "hustle", it is rooted the FEAR of "not enough time".
Hustle is a FEAR-based mindset.
Imagine...
If you had all the time in the world, would you run around like your hair is on fire?
No!
If you had all the time in the word, you would make more time for self-care, get plenty of sleep, eat a healthy breakfast or lunch, spend time with family or kids.
Yes!
If you knew 100% that you had an ABUNDANCE of time, would you be way more chill?
"Hustle" is disguised as an angel of light when you're in operating in a SCARCITY mindset of "not enough time".
Just saying...
Who knew fear can be so sneaky?
Who knew you can operate in scarcity without even knowing it?
Who knew we idolizing a FEAR-based action?
What does God have to say about it?
"For God has not given us a spirit of fear,
but of POWER and of LOVE and of a SOUND MIND."
This is not a free pass to be a lazy-butt,
But it is a wake-up call to slow down and let God set your pace and instead of fear.
Here's what you can do...
Check-in with God throughout the day.
Be aware that your blazing pace is not what God wanted.
"God cannot speak to an unquiet mind." (Well he can, but you can't hear crap).
When we keep going at the speed of "hustle" we are heading towards burn-out.
Burn out in health, relationships, emotionally, spiritually and professionally.
Is it worth it?
Just start making changes now.
Take a breath,
Take a pause and ask God...
"God,
Take the hustle out of me.
Take the fear out of me.
Help me walk at YOUR pace, not my own.
Let me walk in Your divine timing,
A timing that is far better than anything I can do.
Let 1 minute at Your pace be GREATER than 1 hour at my own.
Show me a NEW way of living and doing business.
Help me make You a priority.
In Jesus name, Amen."
Cheers to a new pace, God's pace and better results!
Wohooo!!!
