Imagine living all your life in a city you were born and raised in, established your business in, were raising your children in, and had a wonderfully fulfilling life focused on family, friends and community. Then one day you were told to get out, because a Category 5 hurricane was headed to New Orleans. Her name was Katrina.

Equipment
You may have heard it said that “God doesn’t call the equipped, but he equips the called.” All of us are uniquely qualified for a greater purpose. God gives us the choice to use it or not. Don’t wait until you’re “ready.” Be fearless. Find your purpose. Use it…
Relationships
Trust is the foundation of every successful, healthy relationship. It takes time to build trust, and trust should be held as sacred.
Fear
Not all fear is bad. We are hardwired to feel fearful in dangerous situations. But the fear of failure, fear of success (yes, it exists) and fear of other people’s judgments is unhealthy. It will leave us unfulfilled and frustrated. If you are fearful, do the work on yourself to release the fear and live fully. Self-work isn’t easy, but it’s worth it…
Rise Up
You can arise from any situation. You must get your mindset right and believe in yourself. Believe that you can accomplish anything you set your mind to, because you can…
Starting Line
Sometimes life feels like a race. Everyone is trying to win, and the competition is good. We are, in actuality, running our own race. Our only real competitor is ourselves. We should self-evaluate how well we are doing by how much effort we put into it. Give it everything you have in you. Finish strong…
Activity
It has become an honor to be known as the busiest person around. Has this become the culture of America? I hope not. We must make time for what matters most: people. If we gain wealth but have no real friends and our family merely tolerates us, we aren’t winning the game of life. Examine your focus. Recommit to the people who care about you…
Spectator Sports
I love watching great athletes. My dream when I was a teenager was to play safety in the NFL. My dream wasn’t to become a reality because I didn’t possess the physical gifts to play at that level. So I’m content being a spectator.
Life isn’t a spectator sport, though. We must get in the game every day and give it everything we have. All of us are gifted in some special way. You know your talents. Use them for the benefit of others. You will benefit, too…
Your Voice
Everyone has a voice, but not everyone has a worthwhile message. Make sure your voice is used to speak truth…
The I’s Have It…
Today’s culture says “look at me!” We are regressing to a focus on ourselves rather than on others. People feel empty, frustrated and alone. A “me first” attitudes leads to spiritual poverty. Shift your focus to people, and watch how your cup fills…
