I strongly believe everyone should consistently check where they are in life. Are you on the right path. Are you successful or are you failing? Are you honoring God by trying to be great with the gifts He has given you. How do I correct the negatives and how do I increase my positives.
This self-checkup game, is not a game for the faint of heart.

I play this game every now and then when I am thinking about my place in life. It goes like this: If I took a time machine and went back a year ago and showed myself what I would have accomplished and what I have failed to accomplish – Would I take it or would I reject it? Would I be happy and proud of what I accomplished or would my failures be too many and have too much of a negative impact.
Sometimes this game brings me a feeling of pride and other times the negative truth fuels me to get better.
I want to play this same game with Trump’s first seven months on the job. Let’s take a time machine back to that first day of his new term in office on January 20, 2025. Remember when we go back into time on our time machine, we have to erase our knowledge of the future, our present. We have to look to the future asking the question: This is what Trump will have accomplished and what Trump failed at. Is this, ok?
Standing in the audience as Trump comes to the podium to be sworn into office, we see a huge screen behind the 47th President. On this screen will be flashes of what Trump will do in the coming seven months. Only you and I can see this screen. Here’s what we see:
America’s borders are sealed shut on day one
Arrests and deportations in the interior of America are increasing
Putin and Trump are closer to the end of the Ukraine war
The stock market is soaring
Inflation has significantly dropped
Unemployment is down to 4 percent
Violent crime is being addressed by placing the National Guard in DC to start
Investigations are beginning to materialize on the traitors and corruption in America
Tariffs are bringing tens of billions of dollars monthly
The world is on her heels as America is rising
National Media is dying and they become more and more irrelevant
Men are out of women’s spaces
LGBTQInsanity is being erased
America’s health system is being challenged
The Department of Education is being dismantled
Social Security is being cleaned out of fraud and criminal abuse
All branches of the military are being scrubbed of the gay, weak, and mentally ill to include high ranking military officers that created this rot
Trump is fighting with all he has to destroy the Left and the evil that has consumed our nation
Iran nuclear sites were destroyed, and we are not at war with Iran
Those are just some of what we watch on that big screen behind Trump as he calls out the Democrats sitting behind him to his left as traitors to our nation.
After watching those accomplishments, and many others, would you take it or would you say you want more?
If I am honest, I take it. I haven’t seen the negative yet, but I take it because to accomplish that in seven months seems unimaginable. Again, I am looking through my eyes seven months ago. Because of Trump’s successes, we see the picture of treason, corruption, and evil clearer than ever before. Because of this, I want and demand more and more success.
Seven months ago, I was saying the pace at what Trump is moving is incredible. Now, I want the pace faster and faster. What Trump has done for America in seven months is incredible, simply incredible. I am a proud MAGA and Trump supporter.
However…
In this game, I have to look at the failures, the lack of accomplishment in order to make a definitive statement of if I would take the future.
My next article will be looking through my same January 20, 2025, eyes and looking at that big screen behind Trump but all I will see are the failings.
Will the failings I see on that big screen show a nation in continued descension, or will I see a nation ascending back to greatness?
This is a game of high stakes.
Will America ascend or descend into the pits of hell?
That’s a question needing to be answered!
