That's where the pressures are mounting, events piling up, and endless distractions keep pulling your attention every which way. A spinning top is a real thing, even if you don't want to admit it.

When everything around you is out of control, how do you stay grounded in what matters? How do you still make an impact, even in the chaos?
Here's the truth: You don't have to lose who you are this Christmas just because the world feels wild.
Impact isn't about changing the whole planet in one swipe. It's about doing what matters most in the circles you touch — your family, friends, neighbors, church, colleagues, and community.
You are meant for more. But you must be willing to find harmony in the spinning.
The K.I.S.S. ~ Find harmony in the spinning!The craziness and chaos do not stop just because you wish them to. It requires you to find a way to slow down so you spin your wheels less.
Here are three powerful ways to see straight when the world feels dizzy—and to let your light shine steadily, no matter the season.
1. Take Control of Your Mindset, Even if You Can't Control the WorldChaos and noise outside don't have to dictate your inner world. You always control your attitude and your choices—those are your real superpowers.
Paul nailed it in Philippians 4:8: "Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things."
Make your mind a fortress of hope and gratitude, especially when everything seems upside down.
Example: Start each morning by listing three things you're grateful for. This simple act re-centers your focus and sets the tone for the day, no matter how out of control the world gets.
2. Simplify Your Holidays to Highlight What Truly MattersThe holidays don't need to be a never-ending checklist of parties, gifts, and stress. Too often, we lose sight of the core of the season: connection, generosity, and reflection.
What feeds your soul? You don't want to leave out the most important things. So stop overlooking what you value during this holiday season.
Put what feeds your soul at the top of the list. The rest? Cut loose.
Example: Pick two or three traditions that bring real joy and let the rest go. Maybe it's a quiet family dinner, a volunteer day, singing Christmas carols, reading the Bible, or just giving yourself time to unplug.
When you strip away the excess, the good stuff shines brighter.
3. Make Small Acts of Love Your Holiday ImpactYou don't have to fix the vast swirling problems of the world. What matters is the difference you make right where you are—with small, intentional acts that ripple outward.
Mother Teresa said it best: "Not all of us can do great things. But we can do small things with great love." This season, your impact is in those small moments.
Example: Write a sincere note to someone who needs encouragement, donate winter clothes, or listen attentively. These simple acts keep you connected to the purpose and spread light when everything else feels dark.
Remember: You're not powerless because the world spins wildly.
You see straight when you take charge of your mindset, refuse to be distracted from what counts, and show up with love in your corner of the world.
Isaiah 40:31 reminds us, "But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint."
Patience, faith, and focused action will keep you steady when the world tries to pull you under.
This Christmas, impact starts with you. Not because you control everything, but because you control the difference you choose to make.
"Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"
