Leap Challenge Day 26: Take the Day Off

February 26, 2012

This is the fourth and final Sunday of the Leap Challenge. On previous Sundays we’ve addressed spiritual, emotional and mental rest. Today we add physical rest.

Task #26: Rest—take a break from work

One of the fundamental differences between a slave and a free worker is the ability to choose how and when to rest.

All too often I see people trying to rest from their work, but being sabotaged by their inability to first rest in their spirit, heart or mind. That’s why these tasks are in this order. The key to true, rejuvenating physical rest is to first deal your spiritual, emotional and mental fatigue.

Then you’ll find it easier to get some quality physical rest.

Any dream that’s worth going after will take time and energy. To succeed you’ll need the discipline of rest. Without it you risk fizzling out leaving behind no significant impact.

So rest up today (before we leap this week) and keep practicing the discipline as you pursue your dream.

How good are you at choosing to rest?
