Key 2 - Be Sure You Are Climbing the Right Mountain.
Most people are unwittingly climbing the wrong mountain. Unfortunately, once people reach the pinnacle of the mountain of man, they find that joy and strength are absent from their lives. Sadly, this basic problem is why so many successful people are miserable and some even drift into anxiety, depression and suicide.
However, a few wise ones are, instead, climbing the Mountain of God. For those in pursuit of the City that God is building, their day to day lives may look similar to those climbing the mountain of man, but their reality and life is filled with a confident expectation and desire for something good in the future. These are the ones who find strength, and joy unspeakable.

Key 3 - Fear Not - Rather Faith, Hope and Love
Fear will come to steal your destiny. But, we have a hope, we have a belief, we have a powerful love. Though often the outcomes and circumstances of life may leave one with the perception of failure or defeat - this is when clinging to a sense of destiny is like a life preserver in a storm. Make no mistake - it will be hard - you will need to persevere - you will be tested - but those who overcome will rule and reign with Christ.
The world may panic and deep darkness may cover the earth, but the Glory of the Lord will arise upon those who carry the purposes of the Lord. While others may shrink away in fear, you will arise and shine - and all that God hoped for your life will be revealed. Seek faith, hope and love and reject fear, conspiracy and anxiety as you tirelessly pursue your destiny. |

Key 4 - Be Patient With Yourself
Take your time and enjoy the journey of growing, learning and maturing as led by the Holy Spirit. Know that you will have failings, make mistakes and have bad days. Be patient with yourself, be quick to repent, be thankful for the provision of grace. On your journey you will experience peaks and valleys, but HIs Grace is sufficient. Choose to be thankful and acknowledge grace. And when you mess up, get back up, and keep moving forward.
Key 5 - Ask God and Listen to God
Ask God for indications, signs, and general encouragement for what you are to pursue. Learn to hear his voice and tune yourself to see the little indicators all around you. Make this an on-going conversation with God. Let Him bring you along and reveal more to you as your capacity for greater revelation grows. Never stop refining your understanding of your destiny. And then, engage all the steps mentioned here simultaneously. It will be the greatest adventure you could ever hope for. You will be addicted to God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit as they continually reveal to you the secrets of your destiny in their Divine Plan.
