I Used My Church And The Chain Of Excellence As A Benchmark

The door(s) to opportunity are not clearly marked, so literally try every door you can get your hands on.

 

I used my Church and the legendary chain of excellence as a benchmark for creating my personal priorities, in a dramatic effort to become a great parent. I call these five priorities “Life’s Big Choices“.

Common sense Insight: Some truths only become self-evident when you try to live without them.

Be Thankful For The Mountain Of Work We Need To Climb Every Day?

Yes, be thankful for a tremendous workload. It teaches us how to overcome big obstacles, how to overcome daily pressure, how to prioritize, and how to relate to others who are going through the same thing.

Timeless Insight: Prioritization is the key to putting effective processes in place to manage the paperwork of life.

In someone’s world, this makes sense, and that’s the point – make your world make sense.

Just To Be Clear (please)

By the way, I am not saying, nor attempting to imply, that we are bad when we are disorganized.

Common sense Insight: Life comes at us every day. Our piles will grow unmanageable, like weeds in a garden, if we don’t tend to them.

Life’s Office Furniture

What do you make of it?

Metaphorically in the office of life, how is your furniture arranged? Organized? Coordinated? Eclectic? Simple? Complex? Relaxing? Inviting? Cluttered? Stressful? Inspiring? Demotivating?
