Framework

Over the past few months I’ve begun morning affirmations, with the goal of memorizing them. What began as very verbose and extensive ideas have increasingly been boiled down. If anyone ever asks how I got to where I am in life, these are the entire framework of it all.


Meaning

  • Jesus Christ and Him crucified is the meaning of life.

Purpose

  • My purpose is to know, love, obey, and reflect God.

Vows

  • I, Christopher, have taken Megan, to be my lawfully wedded wife, to have and to hold, for better and for worse, for richer and for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, to lead and to guide, to build up and to protect, till death do us part.

Principles

  • Music is universal.
  • Strategy is foundational.
  • Investment is exponential.

Prayers

  • Every new room, “Jesus, thank you.”
  • Every new talk, “Jesus, You speak.”
  • Every new person, “Jesus, help them.”
  • Every new talk, “Jesus, help me.”

Practices

  • Love God.
  • Encourage others.
  • Speak relaxed.
  • Work hard.
  • Stand tall.

Pillars

  • Scripture is strength, so memorize.
  • Prayer is dependency, so ask.
  • Sleep is revitalizing, so rest.
  • Water is essential, so hydrate.
  • Exercise is symbolic, so push.
  • Reading is adjusting, so learn.
  • Journaling is insight, so write.
  • Listening is connection, so expand.
  • Telling is limiting, so show.
  • Life is good, so smile.
