Discussion Questions
7 questions1.Lysa describes a woman who is not lazy or irresponsible but genuinely worn down by too many commitments made with too little wisdom. Do you recognize yourself in that portrait? What are the signs in your own life that you are operating from a depleted place?
2.She points out that worn-down women often make their worst decisions precisely when they are most depleted — they say yes when they should say no because they don't have the emotional reserves to hold a boundary. Can you think of a recent example of this in your own experience?
3.Lysa distinguishes between being busy and being fruitful. What is the difference? How do you personally measure whether your activity is producing genuine fruit or just filling time?
