In response to The Daily Post’s writing prompt: “Tagline.”

Today the Daily post has asked, Often, our blogs have taglines. But what if humans did, too? What would your tagline be?

My tag line would be

“living life in the 10’s and 20’s”

A few years ago God began speaking to me, through my prayer time, about becoming more “slow, constant and intentional”. I have to admit I was sort of at a loss as to the method of accomplishing that.  At the time my life could have been described as busy in fits and starts while being consumed by a cloud of mess that seemed to follow me everywhere.

But God never gives us a command He won’t give us the power to obey. In prayer the idea to change how I structured my day planner was downloaded into my wee brain.

If you look at my schedule now  you will see that each day is  scheduled around 3 times of prayer and study and headed up by a list that looks like this

20-20-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-6

That stands for

20 minutes of exercise

20 minutes of rest (yes I schedule a nap everyday)

10 minutes of indoor housecleaning

10 minutes of outdoor work

10 minutes of finances

10 minutes of writing

10 pages of reading

10 blogs to be read and commented on

10 pastoral or leadership connections

10 minutes of office cleaning

and

6 family connections ( I am working my way up to 10 a day)

I don’t always make every goal but I make more of them daily because I schedule them as priorities. This is living life in the 10’s and 20’s
