"We have the power to reshape our perspectives, uplift our homes, jobs, and schools, enrich our communities, and ultimately, impact the world POSITIVELY, through each small act of positivity we choose to embrace."
Welcome to our monthly
Do Something Positive initiative!
Each month, we feature a theme centered around spreading positivity and kindness. We invite you to join us in embracing these themes, sharing your experiences with us and others, and offering suggestions for positive actions to take each month. Let's make a difference together!
What Does “Deliberate” Mean?
Deliberate means to do something on purpose, with careful thought, awareness, and intention—rather than by accident or habit. When you’re deliberate, you’re not rushing through life; you’re choosing your actions with meaning.
Biblical Perspective:
Do Something Deliberate
God calls us to live with purpose, not by accident. Throughout Scripture, we are encouraged to seek His wisdom, make thoughtful decisions, and intentionally love, serve, and obey Him. As you listen, consider how living deliberately can transform your faith, your relationships, and your daily walk with God.

I Have No Intention of Doing That
Rafael had been concerned about his growing belly for months. No matter what he tried, he felt as though he was losing the “battle of the bulge.”
“I’ve been staying away from fast food, cutting back on snacks, and drinking cucumber-and-lemon water all day,” Rafael explained to his friend Cherise. “Nothing seems to help. I guess I’ll keep watching these exercise videos.”
“Ralphie,” Cherise said with a smile, “you have to actually do the exercises—not just watch them. It sounds like you have no real intention of losing that belly.”
Rafael looked offended.
“What do you mean I have no intention of fixing my problem? I hate looking seven months pregnant! Of course I want to get in better shape.”
Cherise calmly explained.
“August is Do Something Deliberate Month. To be deliberate means to act intentionally and on purpose. Wanting something is not the same as making a deliberate decision to do it. You need a realistic plan. Choose the days and times you will exercise, decide what exercises you will do, track your progress, and remain consistent.”
Rafael paused and thought about what she had said. He realized that watching workout videos, drinking flavored water, and talking about losing weight were not enough. He had hoped for change, but he had not made a serious commitment to create it.
Cherise was right.
Sometimes we must honestly admit, “I have no intention of doing that,” when we have not created a thoughtful plan or taken meaningful action.
Perhaps you have been saying that you intend to start a business, finish a book, visit a loved one, improve your health, organize your home, save money, or complete an important project.
This August, move beyond good intentions.
Make a decision. Create a plan. Set aside the time. Measure your progress. Follow through.
Don’t merely think about it. Be intentional. Do Something Deliberate.
— R Lee Moore, Sr
“Our intention creates our reality.” — Wayne Dyer
7 Things to Do Deliberately This August
1. Start your day with intention.
Before grabbing your phone, sit quietly and set a goal for the day—something that matters to you.
2. Eat a meal without distractions.
No TV. No scrolling. Just taste, chew, and enjoy every bite.
3. Say “thank you” and mean it.
Write a note or call someone to express gratitude from the heart.
4. Take a mindful walk.
Feel the ground beneath your feet. Notice the colors of the trees. Breathe deeply.
5. Listen more than you talk.
During conversations, focus fully on what the other person is saying instead of planning your reply.
6. Declutter one area of your life.
Pick one drawer, one inbox, or one habit to clean out—intentionally.
7. Create something from scratch.
Cook. Write. Draw. Build. Do it not for perfection, but for purposeful joy.

Live Life ON PURPOSE
“Think, Feel, Speak, Write – Do 2.0 :
A Path Toward Realizing Your Purpose.”
Many of us are frustrated, confused, and lack enthusiasm; going through the motions in life because we are not doing what we have been created to do. We have settled for the world’s definition of who we are instead of agreeing with God who has created us on purpose.
In this book, I share insights and stories that offer a fresh outlook on how these principles can impact your journey.
You too may find that as you Think, Feel, Speak, Write, and DO purposefully, you can live a fulfilling life as God created you to live, with purpose. Get started today!
