Episode 15: Reasons You Don’t Take A Break

Welcome to Imagine Faith Talk! The podcast where we believe that faith in God is the key to unlocking everything you’ve been called to be. In this episode we explore the reasons you don’t take a break.

Listen to Kevin and Donovan talk about visualization, Donovan debunks ‘everything needs balance’ and other people’s agendas, Kevin talks about being comfortable with the love of saying ‘no,’ the precious use of time, and knowing the biggest moves that will actually move the needle forward in your life.

And then, once you have taken that pitstop and you are rejuvenated, what are some practical steps to make sure you are executing the mission? How do you not get distracted from the work at hand?
