Unpacking Lie #2 from the "8 Lies to Stop Believing" Series. Lie #2 "I Am Perfect Just As I Am" This lie limits your ability to grow. You are beautiful yes, unique yes , fearfully and wonderfully made absolutely. But perfect? Don’t deceive yourself. Locate yourself where you are where you aren’t and how you can get there. Keep the target in focus and climb that mountain with determination to be better. Casey and Daniel reached out to me wanting to go deeper on this one and we had an incredible conversation on how in theory this sounds good but is wrapped up in deception. Be encouraged through our conversation to look deeper within yourself to see where this lie has hindered you from your potential. 2020 Skating Beaver Productions BeaverFleming.com
With only 8 Weeks left in 2020 so to set up 2021 with foresight for greatness let's break off 8 lies that will hold you back from your potential. Lie #1 I can attain perfection. This lie puts you on an unrealistic pedestal. So how do we break the lie? With truth. Recognize and own your humanity. It’s not an excuse to miss the mark, settle, or give up. But when you do underperform this allows you to have grace for yourself and in turn by that you have more grace for others when they miss the shot, show up late, don’t finish the job on time. Strive for progress not perfection. 2020 Skating Beaver Productions BeaverFleming.com
Bold, True, Honest, You. All require courage the last requires harnessing and surrendering... Bold - possessing a sense of courage to stand out in who you are and step in to who you can be. Not limited by circumstance but rather using the surroundings to become more aware and mindful of how to operate most efficiently. True - As with boldness the truth requires courage and pays a price knowing that the truth might hurt you but a lie will kill you. True means real, true means authentic, true means clear. Honest - Along with truth honesty has to come from within first cause if you aren’t honest with yourself clarity will be far from your headspace. Honesty discerns and dissects with a patient aspect to it with the intent not to rush while still being persistent as it’s always a battle advancing as the lies fall to the side. You - this one is undefined as there’s not another person on this planet capable of doing what you can. Embrace this, rejoice in this, however don’t elevate this above its proper place otherwise a narcissistic spirit will be awaiting that other side and though you stand out will make your days lonely... be bold, true and honest with what makes you you but also find commonalities with your tribe so you can experience the fullness of life. 2020 Skating Beaver Productions BeaverFleming.com

When we are present in the moment we become connected to that moment.- - When we are present with our relationships with people we strengthen our relationships with people.- - When we seek the presence of God we become connected deeper to God. (Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts you double minded. - James 4:8) Through Jesus and what we celebrated this weekend we can receive that cleansing and purifying to keep us from settling and compromising to live a life that’s below the c calling that’s been placed upon us. - - Being in the moment is what activates the flow state and allows us to perform at our most optimal level. Distractions and discouragement may come. However where there is a “dis” meaning “the absence of…” there is an opportunity to exercise courage and gain traction in that moment. BeaverFleming.com

“How can a young man keep his way pure? By living according to Your Word” Psalm 119:9
This thought I had a while ago from personal experience of allowing complacency to devalue gifts, time, and more in my life. • • Like a old Christmas present the gifts inside you can be lost or forgotten if not constantly honored and developed. With the trend of #Grinding it out ultimately will end up lead to burning you out. Find joy amongst the process keeping the present moment the focus and allowing yourself to respect yourself, time, people and gifts around you. • • 2020 Skating Beaver Productions BeaverFleming.com
