This weekend is my great aunt’s birthday. She is the epitome of what a true Christian should be. You have heard numerous people make claims that they are believers but their actions and words say otherwise. Not my great aunt. She is the kindest, sweetest woman I know. She goes out of her way to help others. I can’t recall her ever being anything but the way that Jesus would want us to be. As…
A mistake is a: MINOR INCONVENIENCE SOMETIMES TAKEN ALONG WITH KNOWLEDGE AND EVOLUTION No one is perfect and we can never make the correct choice all of the time. But we can choose to learn from each “mistake” that we make. These diversions along our journey are equally as important and sometimes even more meaningful than our victories and achievements.
Not having goals is a much more dangerous failure than not reaching all of the goals that you have set for yourself. When you don’t have goals, you cannot measure your progress and see the reward for your effort. However, when you have not reached your goals, you feel motivated and inspired to work harder and achieve more. Keep setting goals and striving to make progress…reaching each goal is just icing on the cake.
Life is like a body of water. It must remain in motion to stay clear and pure. When there is no motion, no progress, both a life and a body of water, become stagnant, cloudy, and harmful to humans. Keep moving along the path that is your life. Embrace the changes and challenges that come your way and know that they are both critical to keeping your life healthy and happy.
Leadership is not about clawing your way to the top. A true leader does not act on selfish motivation. Instead, a leader does what is best for the group, team, or company. A true leader only rises to the top as a result of doing what is best for others
Success is no longer measured in dollars earned, the square footage of your house, or the money you have spent on possessions. We have evolved to understand that success is measured in the happiness you gain from the experiences in your life, the love that you share, and the good that you pass along to others during your life.
Not everyone has a rock-solid foundation to build their life on. But if you can imagine the future that you want, you can achieve it no matter what your foundation looks like. Think of your future as a home, or a place that you will reside at some point in time. Some homes are built on concrete, while others are made to float on the water. And yet others are constructed in trees that sway…
I’m not God. You’re not God. Neither one of us is in control of anything. So you might as well just chill out and relax. Sure, I wake up every day with these ideas about what I want to do, but more times than not, things will not go the way I am hoping it will. I could get all out of sorts, but why? What is the point? What good would it do? God…
We each have a past that has contributed to the person that we are today. But those events and experiences do not define who you are or limit your future. It was only a starting point. You have the power to decide where you go from this day forward. With hard work and dedication, you can build any life that you desire.
We hear a lot about having a dream and making it your reality. But very often, no one mentions what it takes to make it happen.
