Reverse Engineering Your Life

One way to improve your life is to reverse engineer. That means coming up with an end goal to your life.

For example. You might want to live a long life, have a committed, loving marriage, a great relationship with your kids, and live a life that pleases Jesus.

Once you have the end goal, work backward. If you desire to live a long time, you will need to be healthy. For you to be healthy, you will need to start exercising regularly. You enjoy walking, so you need to start walking five miles a day starting tomorrow.

You can do this for anything, including your spiritual health. If you want to love Jesus deeply, have a spouse who walks the journey of faith with you, and children or grandchildren who live a life of faith, then what are you going to do to achieve that? More specifically, what are you going to do today or tomorrow that will head your life in that direction?

Where you end up in the future is the result of the actions you take today.
