1 Minute Motivation #82: Get Ready for the New Territory

When you first see a diamond fresh out of the ground, it doesn’t sparkle. It doesn’t even look valuable. It looks like dirt… dull, rough, irregular. But it’s a diamond all the same.You may feel like that right now… buried, overlooked, or unsure of your value. Especially if you’re a business owner or walking through a challenging season. I’ve been in that space too...questioning and being refined. But God reminded me of something powerful: you are a diamond, even if you’re still in the rough.I pray today you open your eyes to see what God sees... value, purpose, brilliance, and strength. You were placed here for a reason. You are being refined for a reason. And you are more precious than you realize.#unlockinggreatness #zenjaglass #unlockinggreatnesspodcast #necessaryVisit https://www.UnlockingGreatness.com

The Courage to Surrender: How to LAUGH at the Days to Come!God has been pressing into my spirit… the quiet strength that comes from surrender. Not giving up, not shrinking back, but that deep, holy confidence of knowing exactly who you belong to and surrendering every circumstance to Him.Life, family, business… we are all walking through different seasons. Some are heavy. Some feel confusing. Some stretch us more than we ever imagined. But God reminded me of the Proverbs 31 woman, reminding me that she can laugh at the days to come. Why? Because she knows her Father. She knows her Overseer. She knows the enemy is limited.And if she can live with that kind of confidence, why can’t we?So I ask you (and myself) this question…Can you laugh at the days to come, even in stress, anxiety, or uncertainty?The heartbeat of true surrender is remembering who guides our steps and who wrote our story before we ever lived a single day.No matter who you are... man, woman, married, single... this confidence is for you. This peace is for you. God is with us.We can laugh at the days to come!Where to Purchase “necessary.”Available as a paperback worldwide via Amazon.Access “necessary.” Audiobook [Pay What You Want] at: https://www.UnlockingGreatness.com #necessary #zenjaglass #unlockinggreatnessVisit https://www.UnlockingGreatness.com

Before you respond to any situation in your life, any phone call, any text message, any disruptive thought, negative people, self limiting beliefs, unexpected circumstances or challenges, etc… ask yourself one question: Is It Bearing Fruit? In other words, will my involvement, time, reaction, response, etc., serve the purpose God has for my life, and will it keep me in alignment with my vision and goals?I encourage you to read: Galatians 5:22-23 to learn more about the fruit of the Spirit. By Zenja Glass, mentor and author of “necessary.”Audiobook available exclusively at https://www.UnlockingGreatness.comMuch love,Z.Unlocking Greatness Podcast with Zenja GlassVisit https://www.UnlockingGreatness.com

There is a spiritual battle happening all around us... fear, distraction, doubt, and exhaustion trying to steal our peace. But God reminds us in Galatians 6:9, “Let us not grow weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.”This is a powerful message about standing firm in faith, putting on the full armor of God, and recognizing the lies of the enemy. The battle has already been won... but we must stay grounded in truth, rooted in God's Word, and surrounded by people who strengthen our spirit.Don’t give up. Don’t lose heart. God is still in control… and His light inside of you cannot be defeated.I encourage you to read Chapter 1 and Chapter 24 titled, "A Letter to the Enemy - Part 2" from my book "necessary."Book:The audiobook for “necessary.” by Zenja Glass is now available as 'Pay What You Want' exclusively at https://www.UnlockingGreatness.comAvailable also as a paperback worldwide via Amazon.Mentorship:Join the Unlocking Greatness Community LIVE WORKSHOPS with Zenja Glass at: https://www.UnlockingGreatness.comPodcast:Listen to Unlocking Greatness Podcast with Zenja Glass on your favorite streaming platform!

No matter how busy life feels, I want you to pause… and simply abide.In this episode, I share what I learned during a recent retreat... how to truly sit in the presence of God. We read through John 15 and replaced the word remain with the word abide… and everything changed. To abide means to dwell, to carry the presence of God through every moment... not just in prayer, but in the quiet, busy, and everyday moments in life as well.When we learn to abide, confidence returns. Confidence doesn’t come from titles, accomplishments, or perfection... it comes from knowing that God is with you, and you are with Him. As you walk, work, respond to others, and even take care of minor tasks, He’s right there.This episode is your reminder: Get your confidence back! Abide in God. The one who abides in Him will find peace… because when you walk with God, you walk in unshakable confidence!Book:The audiobook for “necessary.” by Zenja Glass is now available as 'Pay What You Want' exclusively at https://www.UnlockingGreatness.comAvailable also as a paperback worldwide via Amazon.

For so long, I thought the enemy was after me… my peace, my family, my dreams. But now I realize the truth: I was never the real target. The enemy was after the light inside of me. In this episode, I share a deeply personal letter to the enemy, coming from the pain of losing my son and the countless nights I spent on my knees, pleading for God’s rescue. What the enemy meant for evil, God is turning into testimony. Every tear, every dark place... I am determined to use them all to point others back to God. This is not just my fight; this is a reminder for you, too. You are more than the lies, more than the fear, more than the attacks you’ve faced. You carry dominion and authority as an heir of a child of God. And no matter how heavy the battle feels, your victory has already been won! Let this episode remind you: God is still sovereign. God is still faithful. And He will use your story for His glory.Book:The audiobook for “necessary.” by Zenja Glass is now available as 'Pay What You Want' exclusively at https://www.UnlockingGreatness.comAvailable also as a paperback worldwide via Amazon. Mentorship:Join the Unlocking Greatness Community LIVE WORKSHOPS with Zenja Glass at: https://www.UnlockingGreatness.comPodcast:Listen to Unlocking Greatness Podcast with Zenja Glass on your favorite streaming platform!

In this episode of the Unlocking Greatness Podcast, I share how wisdom... God’s wisdom... can transform fear into clarity, and uncertainty into action. Drawing from Proverbs 3, I walk through how leaning on our own understanding only keeps us stuck, but seeking God’s guidance opens the doors we never thought possible. From financial stress to personal struggles, we can find favor, understanding, and direction when we invite God into every choice, every plan, and every fear.This is your reminder: you don’t have to face life’s challenges alone. You don’t have to let fear rule your decisions. Let’s seek wisdom together, let’s grow, and let’s unlock the clarity and favor that has always been waiting for you… because the path to greatness begins when we stop leaning on our own understanding and start leaning on His!The audiobook for “necessary.” by Zenja Glass is now available as 'Pay What You Want' exclusively at https://www.UnlockingGreatness.comAvailable also as a paperback worldwide via Amazon. Join the Unlocking Greatness Community at: https://www.UnlockingGreatness.comListen to the Unlocking Greatness Podcast with Zenja Glass on your favorite streaming platform!

It’s time to break negative patterns and stop repeating cycles that are holding you back. If you’ve ever wondered, “How do you break negative thought patterns?”, “How do you stop repeating negative cycles and how do you break free from negative habits and generational patterns?” I pray this helps you develop some step-by-step processes to stay on track for your daily routine.Important tip I left out: We have to be very intentional about the seeds we are planting in our garden. Whatever you plant… will grow! If you concentrate on everything that is wrong, and constantly reproduce negative thought patterns, you will produce the same results because you are just that powerful in the spirit as an heir of God!This specific podcast episode on breaking negative patterns is focusing more on actual step-by-step activities you can implement as a stop gap to keep you focused on your goals (and spiritual warfare) instead of drifting into old patterns and routines.Book:The audiobook for “necessary.” by Zenja Glass is now available as 'Pay What You Want' exclusively at https://www.UnlockingGreatness.com Available also as a paperback worldwide via Amazon. Mentorship:Join the Unlocking Greatness Community LIVE WORKSHOPS with Zenja Glass at: https://www.UnlockingGreatness.comPodcast:Listen to Unlocking Greatness Podcast with Zenja Glass on your favorite streaming platform!
