You have greatness within you. That’s right, you have been designed with specific gifts that only you possess. But few people ever tap into their abilities. Albert Schweitzer said, “The tragedy of life is what dies inside a man while he lives.” You don’t want to be like the the gravestone that read, “Died at 30…buried […]

Do you ever make things harder than they are? Maybe you don’t even realize it…but many times we make things way harder than they need to be. In fact, a majority of people take the path of most resistance, unknowingly. We tend to live like Watson in this interesting interaction… Holmes and Watson are on a […]
Hanging on when your season is over will diminish your impact. In fact, the longer you wait to move on, the longer your agony will prolong. We have to recognize that some seasons come to an end. But don’t worry, because what feels like an end is when a new season will begin. Just like the […]
