Success Attributes – Gentleness
Power, manliness, fighting spirit, confidence, driven – these are all attributes that our society tends to associate with “successful” people. Scores of movies & TV dramas indicate this thought process; but sadly, a scan of any day’s news headlines will show us how this too often goes wrong. Power is too often abused, calls to […]

Success Attributes – Joy
I have often referred to my wife as the wisest person on the planet. Much of my personal growth – from anxious to peaceful, from uptight to gracious, from seeking to content – I attribute to the fact that God gifted me this woman as soulmate. One nugget she passed on to me years ago […]

Success Attributes – Kindness
At this point in a series on attributes that I believe will ensure your success, some of you may be confused. Where are traits like resolve, power, and being visionary? Surely these will round out the series, right? No. This is not a series on leadership attributes. But, even if your definition of success involves […]

Success Attributes – Virtue
Virtue, sadly, is not a word we commonly use in our society today. When we do, often we mistakenly minimize the word to merely mean sexual purity. While that meaning is listed at merriam-webster.com, it is 6th on the list. The first 5 definitions add much depth to the meaning of virtue: conformity to a […]

Success Attributes – Self-Control
My wife and I raised four children (now adults) and now we have four grandchildren all under the age of 3.

Success Attributes – Faithfulness
I would like to tell you that the week after I wrote about Patience, I intentionally wrote this week’s blog two days late to test you. I would like to tell you that, but the truth is I am simply late. Hopefully I did not make you suffer too long 😊. Through my life experience […]

Success Attributes – Patience
Each of us has what we can refer to as an “Achille’s heel”; that one faulty attribute that, if unchecked, will ultimately cause us to fail or, at least, miss out on reaching our full potential. Identifying this trait on our own is possible but difficult, so engaging someone you trust to help you find […]

Success Attributes – Knowledge
All of us want to be successful; none of us wants to fail. The question is, “what are the common attributes that successful people exhibit?” It is intentional that I have titled this post “Success Attributes” as opposed to “Leadership Attributes”. This writing is not for a limited audience of those that want to be […]

Sex, Guns, Power & Prayer
This week we’ve had to absorb the devastating news of a racially motivated shooting in Buffalo, the breaking report of sexual abuse & cover-up scandal within the SBC, and another shooting in a Texas school. I am heartbroken, and just those few words can in no way convey the actual weight of it all. I […]
