Forty Years

This blog post is taken from my Seminar Notes, and I’d like to start off by stating that when Moses was 40 years old, he felt like he was ready to lead the children of Israel out of slavery. However, the Israelites weren’t ready to leave the comforts of Egypt and God still needed to […]

Habits

This blog post is taken from my book Golden Nuggets, and it’s a good reminder that habits can work for you, or they can work against you. Losers allow habits to develop by default, while winners choose their habits intentionally. If you don’t master your habits, then they’ll master you, for habits are like comfortable […]
