Before The Chaos (10/20)
3 minutes to dominate your week
Good morning from close friends Brett Hobbs and Michael Barone. We are here every Monday morning to help prepare you Before The Chaos!

Do it anyway.
“Don’t ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.” - Howard Thurman
Too often, we measure our lives by what pays us instead of what fuels us. But fulfillment doesn’t always come from a paycheck, it begins with purpose. The thing that lights you up inside, that makes time disappear, that reminds you who you are, that’s your purpose. Maybe you can’t monetize it today. Maybe it doesn’t fit well into your career. But if you carve out time for it, an hour a week, you’re keeping that fire alive.
Reflection
“What did I love doing when I was a child, when the thought of money was completely irrelevant?”
“Am I finding enough time in my week to do things that truly make me happy?”
Take Action Task
Do something this week that has zero financial purpose. Write it down now.
Act of Altruism
Do something this week for someone else purely out of the kindness in your heart.
Ours is to compliment a stranger on something they are wearing this week (You don’t even have to love it).
VERSE
Colossians 3:23
“Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters.”
Closing
Do what sets your soul on fire, not for money, not for praise, but because life’s too short to ignore what makes you feel alive.
