The Heroes Are Coming

I know that everyone is searching for heroes right now. That may or may not happen, but what I do know is that you won't find him lounging under a tree, proselytizing along a beach or speaking from the top of a mountain. Most likely she will be a Mother Teresa, covered in dirt and blood caring for the sick, starving and ill. Or he will be Martin Luther King, going house to house banging on doors to get the word to lead a celebration of freedom in the street. He could be another Che Guevara, leading the farmers in the fields away from the slavery and squalor they have known to better pay, better conditions and a chance at a decent life. Most likely, the heroes that do come, won't be recognized by us, because they wil be dirty, sweaty, and bloody from helping others. And when one of these true heroes asks for your help, what will you say?

Growing Big in Business

The basics of business is about solving problems. The bigger the business you want, the bigger and the more efficiently you must solve problems. If you want your company to grow fast, solve problems promptly. To make it big, solve bigger problems even more promptly.

People forget that business is not about business, It is about people. It is about doing the right thing in the the right situation. It is about stopping to fix a problem when everyone else keeps walking by.

Doing the little things do not keep you small; they lay for the foundation for greatness.

The Economic Crisis

I know that many people today are hurting in their pocketbooks, they have been laid off and are wondering how to get food on the table. The first thing you need to do is give thanks. Bow your head, close your eyes and pray. The Lord delivers us not only from our enemies but also from ourselves - and right now - we are scared. We are afraid of how to make the next house payment, we are afraid of how to pay the dental bill, we are afraid of what to do if someone gets sick or the car breakes down. I am not saying that these things wil not happen - maybe even worse things besides. What I am saying is that we have each other. And when it comes down to it. Each other is enough. That's what the church is for - each other.

Sharing is Perfect

Life would be much better if we all realized that life is perfect and that we all have enough to share. Then from that - we would share it. If we all did that, there truly would be enough for everyone.

Believing and Having

You can't get what you want, if you do not believe you can have it.

Deservingness

What you have in life is what you believe you deserve.

A Truism

The size of your belief determines the limit of your suceess.

Choose to be Happy

What it is you desire - these things - are brought to you automatically when you seek out and practice those things that make you happy.
