Mindset

This is the overview page on mindset. “Mindset” is general term to encompass topics such as psychology, motivation, thought pattens, and more. Essentially, mindset is the mental piece of the puzzle that guides so many of our actions. It is hard to get our body right if our mind isn’t. Establishing a mindset that is God-focused and faith-powered is of paramount importance.

Mindset

For many of us, past failures dictate our future actions, whether we are aware of it or not. A spiritually healthy mindset, however, can change all that and revolutionize our fitness at the same time.

On the flipside, your fitness could be on point. This does not mean your mindset is. Vanity and pride are sneaky. If not careful, “you” become the focus of your fitness, not your Father. This is a product of a faulty mindset.

Game Plan

We want to pray daily for the mind of Christ. This will require taking every thought captive. To take it captive, you have to be aware of it. Your thought life and decision-making processes needs to be intentional and habitual. This requires daily surrender, as well as staying connected to our true source of wisdom.

Result

If we are not careful, we live our lives on autopilot, giving no thought to why we do what we do. If we want to be transformed, it will require the renewal of our mind. A shift in awareness and intention can help change all that. Building habits and guidelines that help us stay rooted in Christ mentally will have a profound effect on enabling us to fill our calling to love the Lord with all of our mind. From there, our fitness can follow.
