I'm in the middle of 10 days of Productivity with Tim Challies, who wrote a book called "Do More Better", and started a Facebook group in order to encourage others to be productive. Over the years I've made many lists of resolutions, and once in a while I actually accomplish things on those lists. However, I think Tim has hit the nail on the head. It's really not about writing lists. Productivity is about knowing your purpose (to glorify God and do good works in order to bless others), defining your responsibilities, figuring out your roles, tasks and projects, then writing a mission statement for each of your areas of responsibility. That may sound complicated, but it really isn't.
One of the things I have realized is that in my VERY busy life, I have not made time to write on this blog. This is my creative and spiritual outlet, designed to share my life in a vulnerable way, for the purpose of encouragement. I want to point others to Christ, to the sufficiency of Scripture, and the good news of the gospel. It is my desire to finish well, and now that I'm in my sixties, I don't have as many years ahead as I have behind. So, I press on. I encourage you to click the links, buy the book, and join in the 10 days of Productivity. I'll share more about it later.
