This means taking the Initiative to decide what goes into each day rather than coasting along putting up with everything that comes your way. Some people put more into a day than others, by choice....you can choose what goes into a day that makes for more quality in a day and how you live it. If practiced every day, this will make for a better quality of life for you and your love ones too because they will benefit as well.

Some people put more effort into life than others and this often determines our out-come in life.....a week or a year. Those with certain personality types or upbringing have more motivation and choices can come more natural to them.... the rest of us need to reach a place of awareness and put a considerable amount of effort into it. Mind-sets need to be renewed and habits need to change in order for us to live a better quality life too. We can achieve this because we have "Christ in us the Hope of Glory" and "We can do all things through Christ who strengthens us"__ He can impart strength for this task in such a way that turns out for His Glory because "God Moves in our moving" better than when we are stationary. Even the phrase "we are His workmanship" can prove more true - effectively speaking - because we are more engaged and pliable in His hands; we are expecting and embracing Change. There are times to "be still" in God like when we hear His Voice in prayer ......or......when we "stand still (in a situation) and see the Salvation of God".......but so many of us lack initiative to seek after Him; go for the best in life and those we love. There is a complacency or a weakness of spirit most times. So often we lack a sense of purpose and disciplines that are necessary to result in the Best life and in God.
