Life is about the journey. It’s not just about the pentacle. It's not just the summit, whatever that is for you. We're not spending the time, the effort and the energy with our families. Quit worrying about how long it takes you to get there. It’s called living life! It’s not all about the speed. It’s all about the relationships! Enjoy the journey!
If you scale on relationships as much as we’re trying to scale our business, you have more money than you know!

When you start feeling down and dissatisfied, sit down and compare DOWN, NOT UP! Do it privately and look how blessed you are compared to the third of the world who live in less than $2 a day.
You will be amazed at how blessed you will realize you are! Be grateful for all you have. Feel a sense of gratitude and appreciate all that you have. And watch your attitude, your disposition and your day change!

Some of you are tightwads! You are too tight for your own good. You can not save your way in to wealth and prosperity. You can’t increase revenue or sales if you are stepping over dollars picking up dimes! You have to be willing to spend money to take you to places you want to go! We have to prioritize our priorities. You got to have the tools you need to go to the next level!

Sometimes I get more ambition than I should have and I wrestled with it. Sometimes I get over ambitious and I get disappointed when results don’t coincide with my ambition. Oftentimes when your ambition is tied to a financial goal it doesn't really scratch the itch. I want to encourage you today to embrace the tension. It is what keeps us safe. If there is no tension in your life, something is going array. Enjoy where you are presently at. Learn to be content but don’t confuse that with complacency. I recommend you get and read Seth Buechley’s book Ambition: Leading with Gratitude and hopefully it will help you have more ambition or learn to be content with your ambitiousness.

I want to talk to you about how to keep the main thing the main thing. And I am talking about our relationship with our spouse, our marriage. The number one thing that we've done in our marriage to keep it successful is keeping Christ at the center. Our relentless pursuit of Christ I think has helped us more than anything in our relationship.
