Day 49 of the 98 days of summer
Faith is the Substance
Day 49 of the 98 Days of Summer
We are halfway through the 98 days of summer.
I know I have not seen the 50% of what I plan to accomplish this summer.
BUT...........
I also know "Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen" - Hebrews 11:1 from the bible; one of my favorite verses.
Do you know why it's one of my favorites?
The word "hoped" used here does not mean our 21st-century definition of wish.
The word means expect.
So, read it as "Faith is the substance of things expected for, the evidence of things not seen."
Reading this, I know our expectation is evidence of what is coming our way.
This works with positive expectations and negative expectations alike.
My question for you today is, what are you expecting?

Inform👉 Educate👉 Influence👉 Inspire Day 47 of the 98 Days of Summer
I will be honest.
Sometimes I spend way to much time listening
to talk radio
and allow myself the indulgence
of getting riled up.
The next several days are then
like a bad hangover
affecting my attitude,
my opinion of people,
and my expectation.
Like everyone else
I am affected by what I eat
and that includes what I allow in my mind,
in my heart,
and in my spirit.
I need to moderate how I
inform
educate
influence
& ultimately inspire myself.

How to Overcome Triggers that Set You Off - Preview
Day 40 of the 98 Days of Summer
If you are one of those laid back, nothing ruffles your feathers kind of person; I envy you, that is so long as you have gotten your triggers under control.
What do I mean by triggers?
Those things, situations, and interactions that get under your skin and prompt you to negative responses and actions.
We all have them.
I am thankful that I have learned moderation that keeps me from having near as many triggers that set me off.
I have not arrived, but I am on the path to never being set off.
NextTuesday at 7:00 pm, I will live stream with my guest Tim Lord discussing this topic.

98 days of summer day 39
Force Yourself to Engage to "Feel It"
Day 39 of the 98 Days of Summer
I made this video today for a few reasons, even though I am not "feeling it."
I committed myself to post daily for the 98 days of summer to document what I am accomplishing toward my fourteen Goals for 2022.
Moving forward with this daily post is not about what I am feeling.
I firmly believe that feelings lie and keep you from achieving goals.
It has been my experience that I will "feel it" once I get engaged.
That's my big point for the day. Let me repeat my point in case you missed it:
You Will "Feel It" Once You Get Engaged. - Think about It!

98 days of summer Day 38
Your Calling 👉🏼 Your Vision 👉🏼 Your Mission
Day 38 of the 98 Days of Summer
Please pardon the sun in my eyes for this video 😂
This morning I attended my church's weekly early morning (6:30 am) men's prayer meeting.
What really got me was when individual men were asked to pray about certain situations.
We prayed for our country.🙏🏽
We prayed for our government officials.🙏🏽
We prayed for Israel. 🙏🏽
We prayed for our church leaders. 🙏🏽
I was asked to pray for prosperity for those in attendance. 🔥
This topic is near to my heart,
and before you get all negative on me with "Money is the root of all evil."
please remember the bible actually says the LOVE of money is the root of all evil. (1 Timothy 6:10)
As I was praying for the men in attendance, I found myself praying and exhorting the following
and hope sharing it with you causes you to think today.
I prayed for the men to understand their calling and walk in it within their career and vocation and to adjust or tweak their current career, employment, and vocational roles to be calling-driven as that is where prosperity lies for the,
I prayed for the men to understand how their vision is focused outside themselves and toward the world while being driven by their calling.
Finally, I prayed for the men to embrace a personal mission thatt at its foundation is their calling with a road paved from their vision to achieve their mission.
My moment to pray publically has really struck me today about understanding calling, vision, and mission.
Calling - What God wants you to do with your life and how He has enabled you to do it.
Vision - How you will use your calling to help the world, defined as those outside your immediate family, but not leaving out your immediate family.
Mission - Producing a defined outcome by the actions of your vision built on the foundation of your calling.
That was how I started my day and has stuck with me throughout the day.
How did you start yours?

Show your patriotism by singing the national anthem!
Day 36 of 98 Days of Summer
Join me in the #nationalanthemchallenge
I told my mastermind group that I would be posting myself singing the national anthem today and challenged them to do the same.
What did they say?
- one agreed to join me
- one said, "nope"
and the rest, 20 more people, were silent. 😳
Join me today.
Put aside your pride.
No one cares how well you sing.
Put your Patriotism on display!

Be Brief, Be Concise
Be Brief, Be Concise
Day 35 of 98 Days of Summer
If Jesus could preach what many call His greatest sermon in 1032 words,
that's about 10 minutes,
I know I need to look at how I communicate.
I am guessing the same may be true for you.
Let me know what you think!

Day 33 of 98 Days of Summer
What Was, What Is, and What Is Yet to Come
Day 33 of 98 Days of Summer
Professionally, I talk about the importance of having a Quarterly Business Review (QBR) with customers and future customers,
but what about doing the same and having a QBR with yourself about your goals?
It is a great analysis to have with yourself.
Looking Backward 90 Days
✔️What have I done in the last 90 days that have been fruitful?
✔️Where have I done the last 90 days that wasted time?
✔️What did I do the last 90 days that did not turn out how I wanted?
✔️If someone else could look at my actions over the last 90 days, would those actions point to my dreams, plans, and goals?
Looking at Today
⭕What obstacles do I need to remove to move ahead?
⭕What habits do I need to drop/embrace to keep on target?
⭕Who can help me stay accountable to my dreams, plans, and goals?
Looking Ahead 90 Days
✅What progress do I want to achieve for each goal in the next 90 days?
✅What do I need to avoid so as not to waste time over the next 90 days?
✅What will be consistent over the next 90 days toward my focus on dreams, plans, and goals?
We are one-third of the way through 98 Days of Summer.
We are halfway through 2022.
And today is the first day of the rest of your life. 💯
