What’s your life story?

In the movie, It’s A Wonderful Life, Clarence the angel states, “each man’s life touches so many other lives.”

Have you looked at your life from this angle?

Have you thought about what you want your life story to be?

Do you believe you can live a life of significance, that you can do things that really matter?

To be significant, all you have to do is make a difference with others wherever you are, with whatever you have, day by day.

When you intentionally use your everyday life to bring about positive change in the lives of others, you begin to live a life that matters.

When we live our lives intentionally, for others, we begin to see the world through eyes other than our own, and that inspires us to do more than belong – we participate. We do more than care; we help. We go beyond being fair; we are kind. We go beyond dreaming; we work. Why? Because we want to make a difference. We want our lives to matter, we want our stories to be of significance.

Think about your life as the greatest story ever told…Fill the pages with kind acts, good thoughts, and matters of your heart. Write a great story with your life.

So, what’s the secret to filling the pages of your life? What’s the key to a life that matters? Living each day with intentionality.

With this mindset, you can transform yourself, your family, your community and more. If your story isn’t as meaningful or significant or compelling as you want it to be, change it.

You’ll never be who you want to be as long as you’re passive. You need to dive into the story you want to write for your life.
