It is a book written by Ms Shauna , a daughter of a pastor in the States , Bill Hybels ( not very sure by the name ). She seems to have a full life , a book author and motivational speaker , travels around the US for her books and talks . But she decided to write Present Over Perfect , lessen her schedules on her present outside life and focus more on family and the spiritual side of her life .
With her previous lifestyle , she seems to be the picture of a very successful person but deep inside there seems to be something missing in her life ... full of schedules and activities ...but shallow on the inside ...empty and lost .
So she made the decision to be Present Over Perfect ... she got support from her father and her husband ...she realize during an ordinary Saturday she has about 64 things to do , not realizing now that her family members does not really look forward to these 64 activities but looking forward for her presence ...that's all.
Have you ever felt this way ? Everything seems to be busy and needing your time but deep inside you are looking for a certain meaning in your life . Lately I encountered the term "downshifting " , it has a similar concept with Present Over Perfect theory . Finding time for things that really matter ...appreciating things , people , events that matter and can make a difference.
Evaluate how your life works right now , there maybe so many things to do but empty in meaning . First is see your prayer life , do you communicate with the Great One , our Lord Jesus . Do you have a relationship with Him ?
Meditate , have a inner life , see your real potential . Develop these talents that God gave you and then share your talents with others . It is our way of giving back to God His love for us .
Make a difference as much as you can to those whose lives you affect.
