Growing into Greatness: How to Stay Winning at Life

Don’t overcomplicate life; it is really easier than a game of chess.

Be Mindful

Be Useful

GROW - Spiritually, Professionally, Personally

Rest

Drink water

Exercise the body

Exercise the mind

SERVE

Live below your means

Protect the environment

Don’t hoard - give, give, give.

Speak your truth

Live your truth

LOVE.

These are the values that have helped me on the journey. Adopt what speaks to you and then add your own. Keep it simple and allow for change as you evolve. Embrace reinventing yourself when your soul shifts. If possible, nothing on the list should be heavily dependent on wealth or status.

The Growing into Greatness series of articles is a mentoring tool that is focused on covering frequently asked question from teens and young adults. There are also a few nuggets for adults :-). The book, Growing into Greatness with God (pre-teens and teens) is available on Amazon.
