Passive No More: 10 Days To Purposeful Living

“Good”  is a word I don’t use very often. It takes a lot for me to say that “I’m doing good.” I prefer vague words like “I’m alright today”; “I had an OK day”; “Fine… I’m fine…”  These responses are difficult to interpret, especially for my husband, Josh.  But these are words that give me room: room to get better or worse.  I feel like I’m lying if I say “I’m doing good” when the day has had its ups and downs, and I’ve struggled with my thoughts or my actions or my attitude.   To me, saying I’ve had a good day would mean somehow that the day went smoothly and strangely perfect. I don’t recall having too many of those kinds of days.  After talking to Josh about this struggle, I was challenged. Of course, I was challenged by the “Passive No More” guy!!! This is the man who has “good” days consistently. They've been good because he has determined ahead of time that they will be. He sees things as good because, well, they are good. If you take an assessment of our life, you would agree, we have a good life. Actu
