| 0:00.0 | Hey everybody welcome to Year Move where we help you make better decisions and live with fewer regrets. |
| 0:06.0 | I'm Andy Stanley, I'll be your guide and did you know it's your direction, not your intention that determines your destination of life. |
| 0:13.0 | That's right, it's your direction, not your intention that determines your destination. |
| 0:18.0 | And that's what we're talking about right here on Year Move. |
| 0:21.0 | Here's something that we have all said in relationship to a geographical location, something every single one of us have said on multiple occasions. |
| 0:33.0 | I would have never gotten here without you, we've all said this. |
| 0:38.0 | You know somebody said just meet me at the top of my neighborhood and my neighborhood is too confusing, just meet me up there and follow and so that you follow and twist and turn and left and right and right and you get there and you get out of the car and say wow thanks so much for meeting me at the top of your neighborhood because I would have never |
| 0:50.0 | gotten here without you. |
| 0:52.0 | At some point along the way we have all said this to somebody, we've all followed someone we trusted when we did not know how to get to where we needed to go or where we wanted to go. |
| 1:01.0 | And they said at some point in the conversation look look I'll meet you just follow me, just follow me, just follow me. |
| 1:07.0 | And if you were convinced they knew how to get to where you wanted to be or where you needed to be and if you were convinced this was someone you could actually trust, you followed them. |
| 1:17.0 | Now we're going to come back to this idea in just a minute. |
| 1:20.0 | This entire series on the beginners' guides of predicting your future is built around a single premise, a single principle, a single prediction actually and that's simply this. |
| 1:30.0 | That direction, not intention determines our destination, that direction, not intention determines our destination. |
| 1:37.0 | And week one we talked about that direction determines destination and we all know this when it comes to driving, we all know this when it comes to hiking, we all know this when it comes to biking. |
| 1:47.0 | But when it comes to living oftentimes we miss the connection that our direction financially determines where we end up financially. |
| 1:53.0 | The direction you take in your marriage and your relationships and dating determines where you end up relationally. |
| 1:58.0 | But it's direction not intention and this was the trick and this was the thing we talked about last week. |
| 2:03.0 | That oftentimes there is a disconnect between what we intend to do, who we intend to become, where we intend to be and where we actually end up because intention does not determine our destination, direction determines destination. |
| 2:16.0 | Now today what we're going to focus on is this word, we're going to focus on direction. |
| 2:22.0 | And specifically, and I know this is a big ask and I know this is a bit bold and I hope you'll stay dialed in and tuned in when I tell you what I want to do today. |
| 2:30.0 | But specifically, I want to invite those of you who aren't already to become followers of Jesus Christ. |
