Positioned to Prosper with Erica Pyle

The Real Antidote For Overwhelm (and How to Get More Done Without Burning Out)

Erica Pyle Episode 176

#176// There's nothing wrong with taking a break, Sis. Just make sure you're taking it on your own terms, and not because the enemy convinced you to "take the L" and "deal with it later."

As this year comes to a close, I've heard one too many Christian "influencers" on social media talking about how it's *okay* to "go easy on yourself" if you didn't "make it happen" this year, and not to worry too much about setting vision, targets or plans for the year that lies ahead. #TeamBeGentle 

But can I tell you something? The enemy is not planning on being gentle with you in this upcoming season. Not even a little bit. If you have a purpose and an assignment on your life that brings the Kingdom into this earth, his whole aim is to be the OPPOSITE of gentle with you at all times. Sister, you're in the middle of a war and no wise warrior goes in without a war plan. You hearing me??

Now listen . . . I'm not telling you to be hypervigilant or a striving maniac, okay? I'm not telling you to be legalistic or anxious about every single thing that comes before you. But what I AM telling you is:

You need a plan for how you're going to steward your time, talents and effort in this next season and it's best for that plan to be one that can produce peaceful productivity in your life without the overwhelm or risk of burnout. To the glory of God. Amen!

That kind of planning requires you to know what "ingredient" you need to keep the burnout OUT of your lane, Sis. You need to add the antidote for overwhelm to the *success soup* you're cooking up for the coming year. Do you know what that is?

On this episode of The Positioned to Prosper Podcast I'm sharing just that: the only real antidote for overwhelm. Want to know what it is? I did a live sessionthe other day with my Facebook community where I shared this real antidote, but not before putting the enemy on blast for the four counterfeit "antidotes" he tries to sell us every single day. If you're ready to overcome the overwhelm for good as you put together a peaceful productivity plan for the coming year (that's going to really work this time!), you're going to want to hit play on this episode right here. Grab your Bible, your journal and a pen, and . . . Let's Go!
