3960 Why the Small Stuff Matters to God
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Have you ever thought why the small stuff matters to God? Shouldn't just the big things that shift your life get all the attention? It’s easy to let your everyday get swallowed up by the routines and distractions, work deadlines, household chores, and endless to-do lists that we often overlook where our faith truly intersects with our everyday moments. But you must remember, God cares deeply about the seemingly small, mundane parts of your day. It’s in these moments that your faith becomes real, not just a Sunday sentiment but a lived reality. Consider Colossians 3:23–24 (NIV):...

3959 Present But Distant
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Marriage isn’t just the big moments: the wedding day, anniversaries, or vacations. A huge part of it happens in the "in-between": the daily grind, the shuffle of family life, the countless errands, work schedules, and responsibilities that fill every corner of your time. In this chaos, it's easy and dangerously common for spouses to drift apart without even noticing. You’re both so busy serving the kids, managing the household, or chasing careers that choosing to connect as a couple takes a backseat. You become like two ships passing in the day and night, present but distant. Your marriage...

3958 Make Your Last Word Good
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Parenting is a relentless hustle. Sleepless nights blur into days of heartache, frustration, and moments when it feels like your efforts go unnoticed. In the chaos of discipline, schedules, and tears, it’s easy to lose sight of the fact that you are the constant in your child’s world—their anchor and their guide. The truth is, what you say last in any interaction leaves a lasting imprint. That’s why it’s crucial: make your last word good. What does that mean? It means shifting focus from reaction to reflection. It means choosing the lasting message you want your child to take...

3957 Dig A Little Deeper
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Life doesn’t wait for you to be ready. It hits hard, fast, and often without warning. When the storms roll in, they can scar your days and steal the peace from your nights. It’s raw. It’s real. And frankly, it’s not fun. Life has never been easy for anyone who’s ever done more than just exist. If you want to stand tall—if you want to break past the pain—you have to dig a little deeper. Digging deeper means rolling up your sleeves and getting your hands and heart a little dirty, diving headfirst into the mess that life throws your way. Desire to be supported and encouraged by...

3956 Why Does Everything Healthy Taste So Bad?
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Healthy living rarely feels easy. We say we want to be healthier, but when faced with salads that seem like lawn clippings or bland steamed veggies, we ask ourselves: Why does everything healthy taste so bad? The frustration isn’t just about flavor; it’s a symptom of a deeper battle between what our bodies crave and what our minds resist. Your taste buds and your body are often on two different pages, and that disconnect trips up even the most committed. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

3955 Put Down Your Mask
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
It’s easy to hide behind a mask — the carefully crafted image of who you think you should be or what you don’t want anyone to see. Behind this disguise, you might feel safer, less vulnerable. But you cannot move forward or live the life you were meant to live with God’s divine purpose in mind if you’re trapped behind that mask. So, put down your mask. Please put down your mask.

3954 How Do You Shift In Real Time?
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Life isn’t a straight path. It’s a wild mix of flavors, textures, highs, lows, wins, and setbacks. You grind to reach certain milestones, but just when you think you’ve arrived, reality reminds you there’s more hustle, more growth, more shifting to do. So how do you shift in real time when life throws you curveballs? Are you the kind of person who acts like you’ve already done the hard work—like you’ve ticked the box—only to wash your hands of responsibility? Then you lean back, waiting for the next step to come to you. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded...

3953 No More Words
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Have you ever paused to consider how God truly wants you to show up each day? It’s easy to walk into church on Sunday with a smile and a heart full of joy—or at least a glimpse of it. But ask yourself: how genuine is that moment? Is it real and life-giving? Or is it just a performance, a mask worn for the crowd, for appearances? God doesn’t need the mask. He sees behind it. He knows the truth that we often try to hide, even from ourselves. No more words. Jesus said it plainly in Matthew 5, in the Beatitudes—a blueprint for living “God’s way.” It’s a call to something deeper...

3952 Are You Chasing the Wrong Part of the Heart?
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Marriage. A word that conjures images of bliss, partnership, and forever—but also confusion, frustration, and unexpected challenges. When two people say, “I do,” it isn’t just a promise to love; it’s an entry into a complicated dance of needs, expectations, and realities. And somewhere along the way, you might find yourself wondering: Are you chasing the wrong part of the heart? Let’s be real—too many people step into marriage thinking it’s all about them. They want their partner’s role to serve their needs, validate their feelings, and eliminate inconveniences. Desire to be...

Staying calm when the noise is deafening, thinking strategically when every second counts, and making decisive moves when hesitation could cost everything—that’s not luck, that’s training a mindset like a muscle.
It takes dedication. It takes intentionality. It takes reading. It takes breathing. It takes rest. It takes you! You saying "YES" to your miles of greatness.
So here’s the challenge: What’s your game plan for greatness—not sometime down the road, but right now?
If you’re tired of chaos driving your decisions and want to lead yourself like a pro in your own arena, you must master your mental game.
The K.I.S.S. ~ Master your mental game!
That means it starts in the mind! You have got to control what you let into your mind, what you hang out with in your mind, and where you let your mind wander.
Here are three strategic moves to make today.
-
Own Your Mindset Daily
Like training muscles, sharpening your mental strength takes intention every single day. That means carving out time to center yourself—whether through journaling, meditation, or simply reviewing your goals before diving into the day. Build a habit of noticing when fear, doubt, or distractions creep in—and practice switching gears quickly. -
Craft Clear, Non-Negotiable Priorities
Greatness isn’t about doing more—it’s about focusing fiercely on what moves the needle. Get crystal clear on the few things that genuinely matter in your life. When decisions come at warp speed, these priorities become your playbook. No wasted energy, no confusion. -
Visualize the Win, Own the Process
Imagine that winning moment in vivid detail—the breakthrough call, the sold-out launch, the hard-earned celebration. But don’t stop there. Own the grind it takes to get there. That mental rehearsal primes your brain for success and instills the confidence to take massive action without hesitation.
Remember, success isn’t a lightning strike or a lucky break. It’s the result of mastering your mind to lead your life. When you connect what’s in your head with what’s in your heart, your actions align—and greatness becomes inevitable.
What’s your next move?
Sam Darnold will start for the Seattle Seahawks and Drake Maye will start for the New England Patriots this coming Super Bowl 2026. They must put in the mental work, or they will be beaten before they even set foot on the field.
This week, don’t just react to the chaos. Step into the driver’s seat of your mindset and lead like the champion you are and the better champion you're becoming.
“One step at a time leads to miles of greatness.” ~ Kristianne Wargo
