Summer Personal Growth Plan – T.R.E.K. (Part Three)
The word ‘trek’ means ‘any long or difficult trip.’ I understand that this venture I am embarking on won’t be easy. As in trekking, I will encounter stumbling blocks, failures, discouragement, self-loathing and perhaps ridicule from others however, ‘there is no gain without pain,’ and I cannot pass on to others what I myself do not possess. And I will need the help of others to join me, if not on the trail- then in the ingredients that make up a good Trek, encouragement, prayer, accountability, refreshment and rest.
Each of the four letters that make up the word T.R.E.K will serve as an acronym for the elements I have articulated for my adventure during the summer months. These four areas I have developed, will be used as a catalyst in moving forward into the next chapters of my life.
Trekking is not always as adventurous when you go alone so, I invite you to TREK with me. To develop your own Personal Growth Plan (T.R.E.K.) and see what surprises God has along the way for us.
In these next blog posts, I will outline the areas that I need to give intentional focused attention and hope that they will serve as an encouragement for you to begin to develop a Summer T.R.E.K. Personal Growth Plan for yourself.

^^ Terminate those areas of my life that have control of me and continue moving towards being under God’s control.
^^ Track what I put into my body so that it honors being ‘healthy.’
^^ Transform busyness to developing systems and rhythms
^^ Trace any area where I am not living consistently on the outside with who God is creating me to be on the inside.
^^ Treat accountability with greater capacity that will serve as mutual nurturing.
