Coach or Player?

Don Coryell, ex-San Diego Chargers Coach, once said, "The country is full of good coaches. What it takes to win is a bunch of interested players." Do you need to be the coach or are you interested in being a winning player?

Are You Successful?

There are many ways to measure success; not the least of which is the way your child describes you when talking to a friend.
- Unknown

I heard a minister once say, "If you want to know if you are being talked about, ask the children."

I hope that I am succesful, especially in the eyes of God and my children.

Love's Greatest Enemy

Love's Greatest Natural Enemy

I heard the most fabulous message tonight by Nathan Hurst. This was his title. He preached that it isn't flesh, or the world, or even Satan. Everyone has to deal with this enemy. If we are not careful it affects our marriages, our relationships, even our spiritual lives.
Love's Greatest Natural Enemy--"TIME"!

The Human Spirit

The greatest achievement of the human spirit is to live up to one's opportunities, and to make the most of one's resources.

Two Simple Principles

The road to happiness lies in two simple principles: find what it is that interests you and that you can do well, and when you find it, put your whole soul into it -- every bit of energy and ambition and natural ability you have.
- John D. Rockefeller III

This type of ambition comes when you quit doing something in your head and start loving it with your heart. Many people go to work and continue working a job because they know how to do it (in their mind), but do not love what they are doing (with their heart). When you find what you love doing, then it is easy to complete it. It is not simply a task but a passion.

May I make a recommendation--quit simply living for God, that is a task! Start loving him with your heart--that will be your passion, therefore it will have energy, ambition, and be born out of a natural ability. After all, we are made in HIS image! Put your whole soul into it!!!

Happy People Produce

The happy people are those who are producing something; the bored people are those who are consuming much and producing nothing.
- - William Ralph Inge

How true! We need to make something happen! Be productive! It is not because of boredom that people are not productive, but rather they are bored because they do not produce. Keep striving! You will eventually succeed.
