“Very often the only way to get a quality in reality is to start behaving as if you had it already. That’s why children’s games are so important. They are always pretending to be grown-ups…” C.S. Lewis

Are you eager to develop a particular character quality? Is there a job skill you want to acquire? What will you do today that will help you act-as-if until you reach your goal? Lord, thank You for the grace to change such an ingrained habit, and for the coaches that helped me. Amen “Without counsel plans fail, but with many advisers they succeed.” Proverbs 15:22
