## Resource

Many men feel stuck in life—not because they lack effort, but because they lack intentional design in their growth. You can read more, pray more, and try harder… and still feel like nothing is changing. In this episode, we explore The Law of Design from John Maxwell’s 15 Invaluable Laws of Growth and why growth doesn’t happen by accident. If your life isn’t intentionally being shaped, you will drift into someone else’s design for you. And that usually leads to confusion, frustration, and feeling behind in life. We talk about: Why effort without design often leads to stagnation How identity, clarity, and calling are connected Why most men feel stuck even when they’re trying hard How God often develops who you are before He directs where you’re going What it looks like to intentionally design your growth instead of drifting through it This episode is about formation, not motivation. Because you don’t accidentally become who God is calling you to be—you are shaped into it over time. 🔗 Free coaching sessions: https://pursuitofcalling.as.me/intro 🔗 Pursuers Circle community: https://circle.pursuitofcalling.com
