Doing things differently requires thinking differently and having the courage to challenge even the established ways of thinking and doing.   For most of our lives, we are encouraged to trudge along the well-worn paths of those who have come before us. We learn the rules – in our families, in our schools, in our workplaces, in our churches – and most of the messages we receive tell us that following the rules will allow us to arrive at the lives we desire.    But when change becomes not only desirable but also urgently necessary, this way of being no longer serves us. In fact, in every human endeavor, every major leap forward, has involved a cataclysmic challenge to existing ways of thinking and being. Breakthroughs, by definition, run against the grain and almost always encounter skepticism and opposition.    In this book for leaders, thinkers, doers, and creators, Bishop T.D. Jakes illuminates the pathway to encouraging and unleashing disruptive thinking and provides the wisdom and practical skills we need to evolve our most original and potentially transformational ideas from vision to reality. Through his insight into how our minds and emotions work and through his experiences as a pastor, entrepreneur, and creator, Bishop Jakes leads us into a new way of relating to and transforming the world around us for good. Breakthrough will show you the mindset and the tools you need to create groundbreaking and meaningful change in your own life and in the world around you.

Learn a new way of thinking and living to help every new day become a new opportunity to grow in health and vitality.   Understanding the importance of maintaining a balanced life is absolutely crucial for us. We must learn how to identify when it’s time to rest, spend some time alone with God, enjoy time with our family, or even say “no” to a busy schedule. Taking care of ourselves isn't selfish—it's what ultimately allows us to fulfill our God-given destinies.   As we move through life, people and activities make greater and greater withdrawals on our time, our energy, and our mental and physical availability. It is easy for us to allow ourselves to run dry, to fail to make deposits back into our own well and take care of our bodies and our minds and our spirits so that we can continue to live and serve with joy, strength, and compassion.    In this practical and unique book from “encourager-in-chief” Joel Osteen, we learn about 15 inspiring ways to help us to improve both the quality and the quantity of our years on earth. Through references to lived wisdom and to the wisdom imparted to us through God’s Word, this practical guide inspires us with a purposeful plan for caring for our minds and bodies each day, allowing our spirits to recharge and our quality of life to improve rather than decline as our lives progress.   Living a healthy and full life is a necessity, not a luxury. We shouldn't be so busy that we don't have time to be alone, time to laugh, time to do the th
