One Word...

Jon Gordon had written a wonderful book called One Word. In this book, he describes have one word that guides your life; one word that expresses who you are and who you strive to be.

Our team was tasked with giving "one word" that describes ourselves, something that drives us. I pondered this questions for a few days. Each time I thought  this is it, the word just didn't say enough. Jon Gordon states,  "The simple power of One Word is that it impacts all six dimensions of your life – mental, physical, emotional, relational, spiritual, and financial. "

Finally I found the word that describes the word that influences each aspect of my life; the one word that describes what I strive for "QUALITY". 

Mental:  Each task that I am given I try to complete with organization and thoroughness. I must be devoted to the task at hand.

Physical:  Don't think you must be strong to be physical, but you must try your best and give your all.

Emotional: I must be "all in" to be emotional vested. I must  be willing to bring my heart and soul.

Relational:  Every conversation I have or connection I make I try to give my undivided attention to that person. I want them to know at that moment this is what matters.

Spiritual: I make time for those spiritual moments. To be truly reflective, my thoughts and mind must be in that moment.

Financial: For must this is the easiest, the least involvement. However, to show financial quality I must be willing to sacrifice. 


"QUALITY" doesn't mean you know it all, but it means you will give your best at all times.
