After Glow

Sometimes we complete a task or accomplish a goal and rush right into the next thing on our “to do” list.  We don’t take time to enjoy the moment of the high (no matter how big or small) that we experience after having finished something.  We seem to always be in a hurry to get to the next thing because we don’t want to “waste any time.”  Then we wonder why we are burned out and tired all of the time.

God made us perfectly.  Our bodies function in a way so that we have the energy to complete the tasks at hand, however, we need to recharge so that we have just as much energy to move on to the next thing.  We are not as in tune to our bodies as we could be and we miss opportunities to enjoy the moment after the success.  

It is not enough to enjoy the success in the moment; we must take time to enjoy the high after the moment.  Relish a little… celebrate a little... relax a little… before you take the next step on your journey.  Give thanks for this success and this moment… THEN move on to the next one.  

The After Glow moment should be a reflection of the inner-glow that radiates from you as you reflect the light God has put inside of you.  The light always shines brighter we accomplish something that he put inside of us to do!
