"Every moment that you live is an irreplaceable resource with a limited supply."

--T. D. Jakes, Maximize The Moment

How do we measure this time called life? Some people think a person's life can only be measured by the longevity of his days. Others measure people's lives by the amount of material possessions they have attained or the success they have achieved. But when we stand in the face of eternity, real success is calculated by more than riches alone. It doesn't matter how long we live or how much wealth we've gathered: What matters is how well we live. What is important is how we fill in the blank that comes between the first and the last day of our lives.

In Maximize The Moment: God's Action Plan For Your Life, T.D. Jakes, author of the No. 1 bestseller The Lady, Her Lover, And Her Lord and many other inspiring volumes, offers a way for men and women to maximize their potential and fulfill the divine plan that God has for them. With the clear, down-to-earth style that has become his trademark, and an ability to cut through commonplace generalities, Jakes offers a message for creating balance and fulfillment in life.

"One of life's greatest tragedies," says Jakes, "is to arrive at the end of your journey and realize you could have done more, laughed harder, played more intensely, and lived more vivaciously if only you had taken the day by the throat and steered it the way you wanted it to go, if only you had made a conscious decision about what you wanted to do." Now Jakes helps us make the conscious decisions that will allow us to maximize the moments of our lives.

Drawing on his experiences as a preacher, author, motivator, and entrepreneur, Jakes teaches practical, hands-on principles that reveal the keys to personal success available to each and every one of us if we know where to look.

In Maximize The Moment, Jakes shows us how to:

  1. Minimize liabilities, plan for the unexpected, face the inevitable, enjoy the ecstasies of life, and endure life's disappointments.
  2. Release ourselves from damaging relationships and debilitating fears, and move beyond our painful pasts.
  3. Courageously face and conquer obstacles that may stand in our path to success.
  4. Recognize and utilize our God-given potential to its fullest.
  5. Set goals and develop strategies so that we may be all God wants us to be and fulfill the plan He has for us.
In this guide to an abundant work, home, and spiritual life, Jakes illustrates how the sum of our lives lies in the choices we make. For those of us who choose wisely, life will be rich and rewarding. Those who fail to choose with a plan in their head and God in their heart will surely falter. Maximize The Moment shows us how by prioritizing our goals and making the most of our precious time on earth, we can hold fast to a vision of crossing life's finish line, knowing that we have run the race with bold integrity.
