Have you ever considered if you are worshiping success, or Jesus? This is SO JUICY because I share a bit about my story about how I was UNKNOWINGLY worshiping success, how I navigated that, and ultimately 3 solid steps that you can implement today that will help you keep your eyes focused on Jesus & step away from idolizing the things in this world. If you are a Christian entrepreneur (or even if you're not an entrepreneur), I'm sure that you have come face to face with hustle culture and this ultimate STRIVING mentality, which is this urge to constantly do MORE and to be MORE. I'll be the first to tell you that it's a good thing to want to better yourself, and to learn from past mistakes, but a big problem comes in when we become so OBSESSED with success and goals that we start IDOLIZING and WORSHIPING this concept of becoming “better” and so we can be the "best version of ourselves." While I am an advocate for learning and growing, the self-development world can actually become a trap. Because the truth is, if you're not careful, we can unknowingly begin to worship doing more, which leads to ultimately worshiping ourselves, as opposed to worshiping the one true God. We then start to think that all we have to do is become better and start "manifesting" our desires.

This is a topic very near and dear to my heart because I experienced this first hand. Looking back, I had no idea I was worshiping success. I had NO idea I was seeking validation from the world. And I definitely didn't think I was trying to seek glory from my works, so of course I had no idea I made myself an idol. But like I said, there is absolutely nothing wrong with learning from our mistakes and making better choices, but it's when we convince ourselves that WE are the answer, and that WE are the key to change, abundance, happiness, or freedom… THAT is when we begin idolizing ourselves. Because WE are not the answer. Jesus is. And we have to constantly CHOOSE to look at Him, because the world truly makes it so easy to look at ourselves. Without further ado, let's dive in.
