MTD can often feel like a long-term, large-scale project, especially when our first exposure to the process often involves massive amounts of data compilation (name-storming) and strategic preparations. We want to introduce a simple strategy for changing MTD for those who are aiming to sustain their support from feeling like a project to making it a rhythm. We want to present a way of simplifying MTD that feels more manageable to your schedule and your capacity while you do full-time ministry.

Here is how it works:

The goal is to reach out to 2 people on each list each week (2 New ConnectionsContacts: 2 Non-Currents: 2 Current Partners). Not only does this help you from becoming overwhelmed with the process, but it also helps to focus (both prayerfully and physically) on only six specific people each week. Depending on time and capacity, this can be personalized to a 3:3:3 or 4:4:4 etc ratio. (This also helps to provide a weekly, very attainable goal - allowing for freedom when connections have been attempted or, if time/capacity allow, "bonus" connections to be made. Overall it creates attainable goals, short-term rewards, and breathing room in your MTD Process.)
