#109 Appreciate Good Support
I am going to challenge you this week to take the compliment. Getting support from others involves give and take. When people give you solid helpful support, let them know you appreciate it! Getting a compliment especially on something that you are working on, but not yet accomplished can be uncomfortable. Do you catch yourself […]

Personal Finance – Doesn’t Have to be Scary
Money doesn’t have to control you. We live in a world where everything costs more than before and sadly our wages aren’t going up with it. This doesn’t mean we go into debt. It means it’s time to take control and tell your money where to go. Money is a tool or resource that we […]

Leading or Going for a Walk
Our culture loves talking about leadership. We have so many resources at our fingertips – books, podcasts, articles, and blogs discussing the next best leadership solutions. I love John Maxwell’s saying, “If you think you’re leading, but no one is following, then you are only taking a walk.” Leaders need people. Without people to lead […]

When you are committed to a challenging goal, there WILL be days that “you don’t feel like it…”. That’s what this week’s challenge is all about. Last week we made sure we were “committed” and not “interested” in the goal that you set. Now we are going to make sure you can stay committed even […]

#104 – Interested or Committed
We set goals with the best intentions and then after a few weeks those good intentions become just that….good intentions.

#103 – I Used to be that Way
How many of us made a New Year’s resolution? This year I am going to…. Now that we are in the 3rd week of January, how many of us have already gave up on that goal? Or even worse we never even made a goal in the first place because you knew it wouldn’t last […]

Eve – Original Bad Girl of the Bible
Throughout the Bible, God tells us about some “bad” girls that made mistakes. Some of those were BIG mistakes. I think God put their mistake in the Bible not for us to judge them, but to learn from them. I loved reading Liz Curtis Higg’s book – Bad Girls of the Bible and What We […]
