Metrics are useful.
But if you're not careful,
they become gods.
You start living for numbers:
- followers
- income
- titles
- wins
- applause
And you ignore what can't be graphed:
- peace
- integrity
- family
- character
- devotion
Some people don't lose their lives through sin.
They lose their lives through optimisation.
They become efficient at everything
except being whole.

This week, create new metrics:
- Did I live honestly today?
- Did I do what I said I would do?
- Did I love people without using them?
- Did I obey God in small things?
If your numbers are up
but your soul is down,
that's not growth.
That's drift.
Fix the metric,
or the metric will finish you.
