In my 34 years of living I’ve done a lot of stupid things and even though I try not to do stupid things every now and then I do. I’ve also sinned a time or 2,( ok you got me I’ve sinned alot)  but I’m thankful for what Jesus did on the cross  and paying the price for my sins. Yet why I try not to sin I do make mistakes but I’m thankful for a Merciful and Forgiving God. So I thought why not make a list of f things that people do they may not be sins but they are stupid.

• Playing video games all night and you have to be at work in the morning
• Riding your bicycle of the roof off your house
• Not telling you spouse you love them everyday
• Surfing on top of moving car
• Playing in traffic
• Shaving off you eyebrows
• Anything you  do after  saying  “hey watch this”
• Watching reality TV(ok it may not be stupid but you watch enough of it, it might make you stupid)
• Texting and driving
• Not asking for help or advice when you never done something before.
• taking gum of the bottom of a park bench and chewing it (and thats just nasty)

Do you have some things that you think are stupid that may not be sins, share them.

Like most of us in this world we couldn’t wait till we were grown and on our own. Why?  So people couldn’t tell us what NOT to do. Well today I going to change things up and give you a list of things you should NOT do this week. I know sometimes we get so caught up in what to do we forget what NOT to do.

• Do not take the easy way out – You’ll never learn anything new, nor will you get better this way.
• Do not give up – Even the best of us at times wants to quit but those are the times we need to keep pushing on.
• Do not do what you’ve always done – Even if this has worked for years change it up or you’ll keep  getting the same results and in this ever changing world you’ll soon be left behind.
• Do not stress out – I know with bills, dead lines and everything else going on it’s hard to not do this, but if we give our best in everything we do it makes this easier.
• Do not ignore your family – I know life is hectic. You’ve got work to do around  the house and your family loves you for that but they also just want to spend time with you.
• Do not be cocky – Yeah I know……… your the Lebron James of what you do. Let your work speak for its self – not your words.
• Do not eat out everyday this week – Sure its the easy thing but take a nice healthy lunch with you – your body with thank you.
• Do not be in a pain in the butt – Always treat people with kindness, respect and honor.
• Do not watch 30 hours of TV – read a book, go for a walk, and do something beside being a couch potato.
• Do not ignore what God has called you do to – yes it risky, your not sure what  might happen but that’s why it’s called faith.

What do think are  there somethings that you should NOT be doing, share you thoughts or your own list………….

Thought I would try something new this week.  On Fridays I want to share some of my favorite post with you.

“Stop Making Things Difficult” the title says it all as Scott Williams from Bigisthenewsmall.com breaks down simple ways we can stop over complicating things.

“Development-The Fine Art of Telling People they Suck” now this is never an easy thing to do but Anna Light hits a homerun on this one.

Anything to do with the Old Spice Guy, the stuff he does just makes me laugh. You can even set it up for him to be your voicemail message try it here.

Things I’m tired of hearing about this week anything to do with Lebron James and how the Heat are the greatest thing since slice bread.

What are some of your favorites this week, what are tired of hearing about?

The only way to get better at something is to practice it. Yesterday I talked about the lost art of practicing relationships. Today I’ve put together a list of things I think we could all practice on a daily basis. In no particular order here we go.

1. Be thankful- In a world where it seems like getting more is the thing to do lets all take a moment and be thankful for what we do have.
2. Showing love to others - Not just saying it but actually showing it.
3. Flossing – Yes flossing, I once  heard someone once say “only floss the teeth you want to save”
4. Using manners – Some  where along the line ‘please” and “thank you” got replaced with “it’s bout time”and “hurry up”
5. Listening – I know tis is hard one, that’s why we have to practice it
6. Eating healthy – Not sure why we won’t to wait till we can be a contest on the  ”Biggest Loser” before we take our health serious.
7. Pray - Yes it works, Yes God answers prayers you might not always like the answer but He always answers.
8. Learning – Each day is an opportunity to learn something whether it big of small you can learn.
9. Honesty - and the truth shall set you free. Lying  benefits no one.
10. Fun – Life is gift enjoy it!

What do you think, do you have things you like to practice daily, something you think should be added to the list share your thoughts……………..

With every new day comes new opportunities to make things happen. Now these could be big things or little things either way they want happen if you don’t do them. So here a list of  10 things you should do today.

1. Get up out of  bed – this is where it all begins if you don’t do this you might as well skip the other 9    

2. Take time and give praise to the Glorious God that made all things possible.

3.  Make a plan for the day-its hard to get stuff done if you don’t know what your going to accomplish.

4. Stick to the plan – what good  is a  plan that you don’t stick to.

5.  Be prepared for the unexpected – you never know what might happen even if you have a plan be prepared.

6.  Tell your family you love  them and how much  you appreciate them.

7.  Be polite and courtsey to people.

8.  Smile you’ll be surprised at how far it goes.

9.  Do something unexpected for someone.

10. Stop take a deep breath and enjoy life.

11. Share this list – I know that’s 11 but hey be prepared for the unexpected.

Do you have list or something you would like to add share you comments…………
