They Grow Up So Fast

Dear Friend,

I remember it like it was yesterday. My daughter, Alexandra, had just celebrated her ninth birthday. We had a party with her friends and the day of cake, and presents, and fun, was almost done.

I was putting her to bed, telling her a story about Wally the Weasel, our imaginary super­hero friend.

What’s Your Mission in Life?

Dear Friend,

What is your mission in life? Have you taken time to think about it?

In my experience, most people don’t. They never take the time to think it through. Or, if they do, they don’t commit and declare their mission.

Stepping Up

Dear Friend,

It is time to step up.

Are you ready?
Are people asking you to step up?
Are you expected to step up?
Are you afraid to step up?

It is time to step up.

What is holding you back?
What could go wrong?
What could go right?

It is time to step up.

Show #372: Roy Williams and the blessing of pain

But what if you have had it relatively easy? What do you do? Listen to the show to have your paradigm shifted and challenged.
