Your Calling: Will You Say Yes?

When a man misses what he feels to be his calling, what are the lingering effects? I was talking to a co-worker of mine and I brought up the fact that he looked lost. My co-worker replied that it is so funny you feel that way, because I do feel that way. I had this perfect life planned out in my mind where I would play college football and that would translate into me being drafted to the NFL and playing wide receiver and living out days as the best wide receiver in the history of the NFL. I dreamed of buying my mother a home on the beach, having a nice home for myself, an extensive amount of money in the bank and a beautiful wife and beautiful children. My calling or dream has been deferred due to the severe leg injury I sustained playing football in college and now I do not know what I am doing. I do now know whether I am coming or going. I have no 1 year, 5 year, or 10 year plan in place for my life. I have no one I can talk to, I have no one I can tell my story to. All I can do

Give Thanks To The New You!

There is an important lesson that everyone will have to learn. Bad things happen to very good people. Furthermore bad things will come! There will be a time in your life that you will find that you will be fighting for your very existence. There will be a time where you will question your very existence. There will be a time where you want to give up. There will be a time where you do not see the light at the end of the tunnel. There will be a time in your life when you question if there is a God. There will be a time when you ask the question: Why is this happening to me, God? There will be a time when you almost lose the faith. There will be a time when you wonder how much more can I take? There will be a time when you say to yourself: Why Bother? You have to know that everything we go through has to be met with this thinking in our mind: What lesson is God trying to teach me? What is the purpose of this difficult time in my life? Will I come out on the other side of this trying

Give Love! Every Day, Every Week, Every Month, Every Year!

Men....We have been charged with the task of protecting and providing of the woman in our lives. The woman in your life is a gift from the Almighty God the Creator of everything good. Think about a woman like the gift that you have anticipated to be under the Christmas Tree. You have sent the list of wants to God and he has formed and fashioned that woman just for you. Then that special day arrives when you can open your gift and it is everything you ever wanted and needed and you say: Thank You God For This Gift! That is the exact representation of the woman you wake up next to, the woman you profess your love to, the woman you said I do to, the woman you made children with, the woman you bought the house with, the woman you bought a car with, the woman who helped you fix your credit, the woman that helped you to get to the top, the woman that put aside her own wants and needs to help you shine. How do you pay her back for all that she has done for you? The truthful answer is you

Nothing Just Happens!

Think about your life. As a human being that has lived life past the teen age years and most certainly past your roaring 20's and into what I call the get real years of your 30's, you have in no uncertain terms experienced the ups and the downs of life. There is nothing in life that is guaranteed but that we all will be born and we will all die, that is it, that is all! What we do in between those two life events determine's how we will all be remembered by from all those individuals we call associates, business partners, coworkers, husbands, wives, mother and father, son's and daughter's. You may be wondering if anyone knows you exist, or even God for that matter? The answer is all you have to do is surrender your life and all your problems to God. You have to say to God I do not understand why I am going through the tests of life, but God I know you do. I have come to understand this that God has a plan for you life that is beyond your finite understanding.

Imagination Is The Key

If you can dream it, believe in what you just dreamed, then imagine that dream coming true it will eventually come to pass. To often we have a flash of GREATNESS that comes to us and gives implicit instructions on what to do to change our lives. The flash of GREATNESS can be the start of a business. The flash of GREATNESS can be an idea that catapults our life on a direction that will take is from poverty to the promised land. The flash of GREATNESS can be a book or blog or vlog that will impact lives in a way that causes a person to see life in a better way. The flash of GREATNESS can be a product or cell phone app that hits the mainstream and again changes your life and the life of the people that find your app useful. To often we ignore that moment when your IMAGINATION is showing you what is in store for you in your lifetime if you take the time to listen. The bible states that FAITH is the substance of things hoped for the evidence of things not seen.  Albert Einstein too

New Year! New Direction

What Do You Do Now That 2018 Is Here? Three Words: Go Into Beast-mode! Enter the new year with reckless abandon. Why do I say this because for too long you have been putting off what you should be doing in order to reach the expected end that you often times dream about. If you are like me then you may have let a countless amount of years pass before you were made aware you have wasted the precious time that God has given you. You are probably saying that I have tried to walk the walk and talk the talk that would take me to the promised land. I have shot myself in the foot and stopped all progress by not having the faith in my own ability to get the job done. Maybe you have written down a plan year after year and had a vision board hanging from the wall and you have read countless books and Internet articles on how to reach your full potential. You take down the notes and recite the affirmations and pray and still no results. So there you are in the same position in life, hoping, p

Being Uncomfortable With Comfortable

Comfort is indeed the enemy of success, You have to be willing to leave your comfort zone behind in order to achieve success. Napoleon Hill the author of the world renowned book entitled Think And Grow Rich Said it best: "Every person who wins in any undertaking must be willing to burn his ships and all sources of retreat. Only by doing so can we be sure of maintaining that state of mind known as burning to win, essential to success." What does comfort do to the man that is lost? He now is hopeless and develops into a man that has lost his way. What does comfort do to the man trying to do something with his life? He develops the hope and pray mentality, which means he hopes to fulfill his destiny while praying something miraculous happens without him developing the need to work hard to get it. What does comfort do to the man trying to pursue his dreams? His dreams now become a fallacy, he often daydreams about the life he wants, being comfortable with the life he ha

Your Woman; Your Responsibility

I think Sir William Goulding said it best: I think women are foolish to think they are equal to men, they are far superior and always have been. Whatever you give a woman she will make it greater. If you give her sperm, she will give you a baby. If you give a woman a house, she will give you a home. If you give a woman groceries, she will give you a meal. If you put a smile on her face, she will give you her heart. A woman multiplies and enlarges whatever is given to her. If you are a man and you do not think you need a good woman in your life, you do. If you are a man and you think that you can live without a good woman, you cannot. If you think that you will achieve success without a good woman in your life, you will not. If you think that you can play the field and survive, think again. God knew what to do when woman was created, she would be created to provide the yen to your yang. God knew what to do when woman was created, she would be created to be the motivating force in your
