Suggestion to consider: the Goal is to “work together”. At this time, people are “afraid” generally. When people are afraid, they think only about THEIR needs. To get them BACK INTO the idea of “together”, the fear has to be addressed, so that the people KNOW that they are NOT alone, and encouraged to have time together as a group, to “understand” each other’s difficulties as well, THEN talk about what we CAN DO….break down big obstacles, to smaller bites. Possibilities are real then. Procrastination is because of fear, or feeling of incompetence. What would you like to see? Do…? Letting others think of what the “solution” might be, gives them “skin in the game”, which equals self-propelled, continued “interest”to move forward. Those who feel needed and appreciated are “into” the group goal. You are “participating in the divine nature”. (2 Peter 1:3-4) A servant who has their “cup” filled, can serve others better. Yes, it DOES help to have a hobby or interest that “feeds” your growth “need” for being encouraged, and for gratification that is healthy. “If you are annoyed at someone for continuing to NOT change, then YOU are refusing to change.” (Pinterest) Jesus came to us, for the purpose of reconnecting us with the Father, and with each other. “Connection” is what it’s all about.

Glad you became aware of your faith-over-fear power, but realize that the “prosperity gospel” people abused this “spiritual truth”, so be thoughtful about what may happen if you share your ideas. Remember that you are a “fellow-worker WITH GOD, and Jesus reminded us in John 15, that “we can do nothing without (Him).” His Grace IS the “right” desire AND the “right” power, from Him, for His “business”. We offer our bodies to be used to do HIS WILL. The Power comes from God. The right desire comes from God. The idea of what you have thought to do, comes from God. You are His vehicle. Prayer works!😊
