Passivity paralyzes

Are you growing? Will you be intentional about moving on -- moving forward -- in the dimensions of life and throw off the shackles of passivity?

After all, passivity suggests:

• I've arrrived. Although I'd never assert such a thing, it's suggested when I'm cemented in place.
• I'm comfortable. I know, I know...my marriage could be better, my relationships are few and weak, my fathering is part-time at best...but the discomfort I now experience (knowing those things) might be better than the discomfort I'd experience from intentional growth.
• I can't. At my age...with my background...as busy as I am....(insert favorite phrase here) no one improves his fitness, grows his long-term marriage, changes his attitudes toward work, begins to win the day in his spiritual life.

Intentionality is key. Get around growing people. Find the resources. Gain accountability. Put some specifics on paper. And be free of the paralysis of passivity.
