the hfl success path:

a tool to reach your goals

When a dear friend makes a mistake, what do you say to her? You let her know that it's okay not to be perfect, that she is not alone and we all make mistakes. You may even point out what she did right so that she doesn't focus only on what she may have done wrong.

So then why are we so harsh on ourselves? Why do we not treat ourselves with the grace that we offer others? Do we not value ourselves as much as we value our friend? If not, do we then not acknowledge the value that our Heavenly Father has given us (Matthew 10:31) or do we not receive the grace that He has bestowed upon us (Romans 8:1)?

That's a deeper conversation and a knowing of God and His love that we cannot tackle here, but something for you to talk to God about in prayer.

But we do have a tool that we can use to help us see how far we've come, where

we're going and our next step. It'll redirect us whenever we get off track and minimize overwhelm when we don't know what to do. It's the HFL Success Path.

Print out the Success Path and circle where you are now in each of the 7 habits. As you work the monthly habit challenges, you'll be working your way up the paths. Return to this path every so often and circle where you are again and watch yourself progress!

It's a good reminder of how far you've come! And it will be another reason to praise God for his faithfulness as you walk this journey.
