"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:
- Minimize liabilities, plan for the unexpected, face the
inevitable,
enjoy the ecstasies of life, and endure life's disappointments.
- Release ourselves from damaging relationships and
debilitating fears, and move beyond our painful pasts.
- Courageously face and conquer obstacles that may
stand in our path to success.
- Recognize and utilize our God-given potential to
its fullest.
- 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.
