By Jorge de Campos in Dallas, TX - November 11, 2023 - Tests and trials can lead us to spiritual growth. In fact, God may allow fiery trials (1 Peter 4:12). This sermon addresses two critically important spiritual keys in the process of our spiritual growth.
" When you're truly connected to who you are, you know what you are as a spiritual being, then you become truly productive”. Episode Summary: What if there was a way to do less and achieve more? What if you could be twice as productive with less stress? What if you were able to manifest your goals with grace and ease? Today's episode of soul talk challenges everything you know about productivity and shows you a new way to live in the flow and produce a higher level of results. We've been taught that being busy is being productive. This is not necessarily true. We focus on time management and over-emphasize hard work but this doesn't take into consideration the whole picture. Unless we understand who we are and what our true motivation is, we will not be able to maximize our potential and productivity. Ego is the source of our doingness and when we are run by ego, productivity will be limited. The foundation of productivity is being fully present rather than in the past or the future. In today's episode, Kute gives you a simple yet powerful understanding of how your ego works and how it affects your productivity. He teaches specific practices to help you get out of your own way, get into flow and achieve your full potential. Timestamps: (00:01:04) -A new paradigm of productivity. (00:04:44) - The difference between busyness and productivity. (00:09:02) - The effects of ego on productivity. (00:16:31) - How to get out of your own way. (00:17:30) - The nature of the Flow (00:22:37) - Practical steps to implement to enhance Productivity. In This Episode You Will Learn: The nature of ego and how it affects productivity. How to live more in the moment. How to work with your ego and gain self-mastery. How to create structure and discipline to increase productivity. How to connect with your source to optimize productivity. Some Questions I Ask: How to live in the flow consistently. What is the real nature of ego? What is the difference between productivity and busyness? How to get out of your own way.

We all know deep down that we were created for more than just living our comfortable Christian lives. We were made to be a part of the excitement of God's mission to share the gospel with others who need to find fulfillment and forgiveness from God. But few of us are comfortable or confident at sharing Jesus. We wrestle with internal fears, a lack of preparation, and the sense that reaching out to others might force us to act like someone we're not. We want to encourage people spiritually, but we don't want to get weird or overbearing in the process. We need to be equipped to talk to people about Jesus in ways that fit our personalities.
