What do you do when you get a little breakthrough? If you’re like me, you’ll try to leverage it… take the momentum, pimp it, and make the most out of it. It also doesn’t matter what you do. Since you’ve got a some extra time, cash or favor, a common thought is now you can spread […]
All work is not the same. Some work is a response, some is obedience, while other work is a seed to invoke a response. Sometimes we do things because we want to please God or others. We want our actions to line up with our words or beliefs. I think this is admirable and acceptable, […]
In the recent weeks, I’ve had opportunities to network and mingle in environments a bit different / slightly classy than my norms. As I’ve prepared for the events my mind swirls over a variety of issues like, what I should wear — how do I present myself? Am I underdressed or overdressed? Do I look […]
Over the past few weeks I’ve had the privilege of sitting in the company of a few very successful business owners. I even high five’d a billionaire during my morning run last Saturday, but that’s didn’t turn into any conversation… not this time. 😉 So as I listened to these men, each said a phrases […]
“What would you do differently with your time or life if you were rich?” This is a classic question in self-help literature. Other examples are, “what would you do for a living, if every job paid the exact same amount.” Or “what could you do for 6-8 hours  everyday, and when you’re finished even if […]
Somewhere along the course of life I’ve developed a pet peeve towards wasting things. They are the result of either experiences I’ve had, books I’ve read or examples I’ve witnessed. I remember reading a biography of Warren Buffet and him stating, “if I can keep track of my nickels, the dimes were take care of […]
“My Soul Longed”By: Arvell CraigMy soul longed for, the love of it’s life. A kiss in the day, and a touch in the night. Impromptu escapades where we travel by flight. And then a stroll on the beach, beneath the moon light. My soul longed for, the image of love. As Adam knew Eve, his helper made fit. Intimate but unashamed, […]
Faith is a spiritual substance. Not physical matter. You can’t feel it or hold it in your hand, but when you have it, you know you have it. It’s not confidence, that’s an emotion. It’s not belief, that’s a conscious perspective. (Well… technical faith resides inside of belief.. but the two still aren’t the same.) […]
My dreams and goals are pretty simple. Bulleted items, handwritten in worn down Moleskine notebooks. You know.. the normal stuff: Change the World Create Multimillion Dollar Organizations that Make People Better Love My Wife Raise Perfect Kids… But my excuses! They’re not written anywhere, but yet live in high-definition and 3D my head! Always available […]
I use to slightly pride myself of having learned a lot from experience. Or more specifically, endured and moved beyond failure. Yes, I know the adage about wise people learning from another person’s experience. And I know of the saying, “experience is a hard teacher for she gives the test first and teaches the lesson […]
