Motivation, Inspiration, from The Space Between with Sean McClellan

The loss of a loved one is often a stark reminder of our own mortality. When someone close to us passes away, especially from something as uncontrollable as cancer, it prompts a deep reflection on the fragility of life. This realization can stir a sense of urgency—an understanding that time is finite and that every moment counts. We begin to question how much time we have left to fulfill our dream...

Welcome to Farming on Faith Faith in my life has been a circuitous journey with many turns and ups & downs. The Farming On Faith blog is my outlet for sharing what I’ve learned over those years. You could consider the Bible to be God’s own faith blog. This website is my own. I hope that you enjoy reading. If you have any thoughts you’d like to share, please click on the littl...

Chasing a lofty goal or dream often feels like walking a tightrope, with fear lurking below. The very idea of reaching for something big—whether it’s a creative endeavor, an entrepreneurial venture, or a personal transformation—can stir up intense fear and self-doubt. This fear is amplified when you share your ambitions with close friends and family, and their responses are less than encouraging....

When we set out to pursue our goals and dreams, uncertainty is often a constant companion. We may not know exactly how things will unfold or whether the outcome will meet our expectations. In fact, the path to success is rarely a straight line—there will be obstacles, setbacks, and moments of doubt. Yet, it is in these uncertain times that we must activate our faith and keep moving forward, regard...

There will never be a perfect moment to pursue your goals and dreams. We often wait for the “right time”—a time when circumstances align, when we feel fully prepared, or when the stars seem to be in perfect alignment. However, this ideal moment rarely arrives. Life is unpredictable, and opportunities often slip through our fingers when we’re too focused on waiting for the perfect condi...

Creating healthy habits is essential when it comes to pursuing your goals and dreams. Habits shape the way we approach each day, and consistent positive habits form the foundation for success. Whether it’s setting aside time for personal growth, staying organized, or maintaining a healthy work-life balance, good habits ensure you stay focused and motivated, even during tough times. When you...

Podcasting is no longer just a hobby—it’s a legitimate avenue for generating a six-figure income. However, making this leap requires a strategic blueprint, a combination of consistent effort, and a clear understanding of how to retain an audience and monetize effectively. To start, it all begins with creating high-quality content. Your podcast needs to offer value, whether through entertainment, e...

Our thought life is incredibly powerful—it shapes how we see ourselves, the world, and our potential. What we think about constantly, we begin to believe. If we fill our minds with doubts, fears, and excuses, those thoughts can paralyze us, making it difficult to take action toward our dreams. On the other hand, when we focus on our goals, affirm our worth, and visualize success, we empower oursel...

Time is one of the most precious resources we have, and once it’s gone, it’s gone. That’s why we cannot afford to waste another minute settling for mediocrity or waiting for permission to chase our dreams. Life is too short to live anything less than fully in alignment with our true calling. Every single person has a dream, a passion, or a purpose that burns deep within them. Yet, too often, we ho...

Compromising our dreams on the journey to success may seem like a quick solution to overcome obstacles, but it often leads to regret. In moments of doubt, we may feel tempted to settle for less, to take a shortcut, or to modify our goals to fit what feels more “realistic.” However, this decision can come with a heavy cost. When we compromise our dreams, we lose the fire that once fueled our passio...

There comes a pivotal moment in everyone’s life—the day you decide to get moving toward your goals and dreams. This is the moment when “Day One” begins, a day that marks the start of something transformative. It’s the day you no longer let fear or doubt hold you back, but instead take that first step into the unknown with determination and hope. Day One is significant because it represents a shift...

In life, it’s not uncommon to feel lost, uncertain, or burdened by challenges. Often, in the midst of these struggles, God has a unique way of reaching us—through complete strangers. Whether it’s an unexpected conversation, a kind gesture, or a timely word of encouragement, God can use someone we don’t know to offer exactly what we need to hear. These encounters can feel serendipitous, but t...

My journey has been one of turning pain into purpose. After facing significant challenges—loss of my father, a toxic marriage, a difficult divorce, and a battle with alcohol addictionI realized that I had two choices: stay stuck in my circumstances or use those experiences as fuel to create something better. I chose the latter. Through rewiring my mindset and committing to personal growth, I inves...

In the pursuit of our dreams and goals, resistance is a natural part of the journey. Whether it’s self-doubt, setbacks, or external challenges, resistance shows up in many forms. The key to overcoming it lies in where we direct our focus. When we focus on the obstacles, the struggles feel bigger, and it’s easy to feel defeated. However, when we shift our focus toward the vision of our dream...

Staying in the game when chasing your dreams means refusing to give up, no matter how tough the journey gets. The road to success is rarely smooth, and there will be times when quitting feels like the easier option. In these moments, it’s crucial to reconnect with your “WHY”—the reason you started in the first place. Your WHY is your anchor, your guiding light that keeps you grou...

We only have one life to live on this earth, and that makes the pursuit of our dreams not just important, but essential. The desire to chase your dreams is a reflection of your unique passions, talents, and purpose. Failing to pursue them means leaving a part of yourself unexplored, and over time, that unfulfilled potential can weigh heavily on the heart and mind. Living a life without striving to...

Not pursuing your goals and dreams can have a profound and far-reaching impact on every area of your life. When we fail to take action toward our aspirations, we not only delay our potential but also risk living with regret and unfulfilled desires. The cost of inaction is often more than just missed opportunities—it can lead to a deep sense of dissatisfaction and stagnation that affects our person...

When pursuing our goals and dreams, it’s easy to become consumed with our personal ambitions and desires. However, a more powerful approach lies in shifting the focus from ourselves to the impact we can have on others. True success often stems from the ability to serve others, understanding that our achievements are deeply connected to the value we provide. By considering the needs and goals...

The inflection point in the pursuit of dreams and goals is a pivotal moment when an individual makes the conscious decision to fully commit to their aspirations.

In life, each of us is born with a unique set of gifts, talents, and potential. These are the tools that, when embraced, can lead us to our true purpose and fulfillment. Yet, far too often, we find ourselves looking at others and attempting to run their race. Whether it’s following someone else’s career path, copying their lifestyle, or measuring our success against theirs, this pursuit can easily...

Accomplishments in life are often celebrated as the pinnacle of success—whether it’s landing the dream job, achieving financial stability, or reaching a personal milestone. However, many people find themselves feeling unexpectedly empty once they reach these goals. The initial sense of excitement fades, leaving behind a lingering feeling of unfulfillment. This paradox is more common than we might...

Running back to the familiar things in life, while comforting, can ultimately limit your growth and hinder the realization of your dreams. When we cling to what we know—be it a job, relationship, or routine—we remain in a space of safety, but also stagnation. Growth requires us to step outside of our comfort zone, to challenge ourselves with new experiences, perspectives, and challenges that push...

Conformity within a job or organization can subtly chip away at your dreams, making it harder to live life on your own terms. While following rules and structures is necessary in many professional environments, too much conformity can trap you in a cycle that suppresses your individuality and creativity.
