Our culture is caught up in what we have and where we live, what I call our “status and stuff.” There is so much more to life than those things. The world is changed through the goodness in the heart of mankind…

Positive Thinking
Millions of books have been written about positive thinking. Millions more will be written. And we know too well that popular saying, “Let go. Let God.” That sounds great until you have to actually do it.
Ceding our desire to control is scary. We want our lives to have happy endings, so we try to control outcomes. Controlling things we have no control over doesn’t work.
Our Creator gives us control over one thing: our attitude. Keep yours focused on whatever is good, right and noble. That’s better than any self-help book…
Risky Business
We take risks every single day. For example, when we drive our car, we assume the risk that the other drivers will obey the law. If we have an accident, it doesn’t stop us from driving again.
God created each of us for a unique purpose. If we choose to not follow what’s been placed on our heart, we live an unfulfilled life full of frustrations.
Take a chance. Expect setbacks. Pursue your purpose with everything you have in you. You will succeed if you don’t quit, because God doesn’t lose. Ever…
Vision
A person with a vision for his future, combined with a deep drive to succeed will succeed. A person with no vision for their life will just drift…
Projection
Insecure people try to change us into someone they want us to be, rather than encouraging us to be the best version of ourselves we want to grow into. True change happens from within.
We are who we are. No one can take that from us…
Limitations
Other people like to set limitations on your life. The negative talk could come from a “friend,” a family member, or even your spouse! Do not allow their fear of living to stop you from pursuing your dreams.
God alone has authority over your life. He decides what limitations we might have, not other people…
Start Today!
What are your greatest dreams and ambitions? Perhaps you wanted to write a book or a screenplay. Maybe you want to find a way to serve others. You can do all these things and more. You just have to get started. So why not start today?
My interview with Christian Moore, Part 1
Christian Moore is an internationally renowned speaker, author and founder of the WhyTry program which teaches resilience to kids in schools.
Christian is an expert on resilience. He wrote “The Resilience Breakthrough,” selling well over 100,000 copies. But Christian Moore is a name we probably should have never heard of.
Moore grew up without much structure in his home. He has multiple learning disabilities, reading at only a 7th grade level. Yet through hard work, perseverance and yes, resilience, Christian holds a master’s degree from Brigham Young University.
In part one of our three-part interview, you will learn about his crazy upbringing, and about the wonderful people God placed in his life that shaped and guided him.

Ownership
Take ownership of your life. None of us are victims of our circumstances. If we give up on our dreams and desires, then we become a prisoner in a cell we created.
Our circumstances will change, but our dreams don’t have to die unless we allow them to perish. And that prison cell I mentioned? You hold the key to unlock it. Every day…
Heard
Everyone has a voice, and they want to be heard. Many people are afraid to speak up. Fear of judgment, rejection or simply believing they aren’t important enough to be listened to stops them from speaking.
People who are afraid need a voice. I ask God every day to let me be a voice for the voiceless. You be one, too…
