Blake Robert Templeton describes how he escaped constant "warrior mode" at work by taking 60 seconds before entering his home to practice gratitude and visualize time with his family. The shift brought him greater fulfillment and stronger family connections.
True story, I went from grinding hard but still felt like I wasn't enough to being completely fulfilled and full of purpose and ironically gained more success in all areas of life. And if you're a Christian business owner who wants real success, you're going to want to save this video. I used to come home after work and stay in warrior mode, which is the gear of feeling pressure under deadlines, the adrenaline rush of solving problems. But it always made me feel like a failure, like I didn't get enough done and that spending time with family was like duty. And honestly, they could feel it. And then I made this one single shift and it changed everything. Before I walk through the front door, I call a timeout and take 60 seconds and I gain gratitude for what I currently have today, not what I've accomplished. And I visualize the joy of experiencing my wife, my family, and my relationship with the King of Kings. Then I enter the house with that primary focus and value. And it allows me to live with gratitude and joy now, not just in a someday when I've conquered the goalposts that kept moving. If you want a dream marriage and you want to feel that real joy and live for a purpose now, make sure you follow me for more and comment the word joy, and I'll reach out and see if I can help you personally.
