EMM!! for really helping me to find all the things that Matter to me!

- God’s purpose for my life – I matter to Him & that’s pretty incredible, He’s got me here for a reason
- Faith/Hope/Love – sustaining it during the hard times, building it during the good times & sharing it at all times
- Health – never seem to appreciate it until it’s gone, making this matter more so I can thrive in all the other areas of my life
- Family/Friends – building on the relationships that I have now so I can learn for the ones I’ll have in the future
- World Impact – both small & large, how I impact the world around me present & future, can be as simple as a positive attitude or an encouraging word.

my future/success
my health
my happiness
These are the things that matter most to me…
not necessarily in order of priority:
- my sweetheart
- my family
- my health
- my business
- my computer (new MacBook Pro)
- artistic pursuits
- my kindle (and other reading)
- my iPhone
- our home (and new improvements upcoming)
- faith and hope
- travel
- golf
- my tractor
Me – I notice many people didn’t put themselves as important. I think we need to change that. It’s not selfish as seeing yourself as important and dedicating some time for yourself. It’s healthy and needed.
