Have you ever heard someone say these four words? Maybe it was
your mother, or a boss, or your friend. Maybe you’ve said them
yourself, tacked on to the end of a sentence. Here are the four
words: “. . . and I mean it!” No matter the subject or what came
before those words, they were spoken to let the listener know, in
no uncertain terms, that the speaker was serious about what she
was saying. The topic mattered and those in earshot had better
“listen up, because this counts!”
Let’s look at what it takes to live a life that says: “I mean it.
The way I’m living is not just a careless, happenstance of random
events. What I’m doing and how I’m living counts. It matters
every day. I mean it when I live this life.”
In a world that too often believes in luck, randomness and
chance, every day people head out the door with no idea why
they’re alive on this earth or how to live through the day ahead
of them with purpose and meaning.
