Achieving your God-given mission takes work. Hard work. A lot of hard work.

You know that working to achieve your mission means you’ll be busy. Busy you can deal with—but feeling hurried is something you can’t deal with. You don’t like feeling hurried, rushed, a little out of control. When you feel hurried, you don’t feel peaceful. Not good. Jesus agrees. On earth, He was busy achieving His mission, but He didn’t hurry.

So, how can you achieve your organization’s mission without feeling hurried? Let me answer that question by asking you some questions:

1. What’s your organization’s mission? (What is not your organization’s mission?)
   
2. What does it take to achieve your organization’s mission? (What is not involved in achieving your organization’s mission?)
   
3. In your job, how do you contribute to mission achievement? (What does your job not require you to contribute?)
   
4. To contribute to mission achievement: What 1-2 measurable priorities will you target this year? (What measurable priorities will you not target this year?) What 1-2 “good things” will you stop doing? Remember, “good things” are the enemy of “best things.” What 1-2 ways will you model an unhurried work style?
   
5. How will you monitor progress on #4?
   
6. How will you get the support, encouragement, and accountability you need to move from being hurried to being unhurried?
