Dan, before we jump into the content of the book, let me ask you a question. “How did you overcome the natural fears that most aspiring authors have and actually write this ebook?” That’s a great question!

I love this quote by Dave Ramsey at Catalyst 11. Don’t let your ministry, workplace, and life go faster than your resources. When you’re growing faster than you’ve got money, you’re about to have problems The simple ramifications are massive. Broke churches, non-profits and business cannot lead well or fulfill their vision. Yet, few people want [...]

I believe one of the biggest reasons people fail to accomplish their goals in life is, “sideways energy”.  Somehow, we have to learn that you don’t have to say “yes”. This is an important principle. If you say yes to something, whether you know it or not, you’re saying no to something else. And that something else may be more important.  [...]

  It’s that time again – Monday is here…are you ready…? Let’s do this! Some thoughts: Catalyst Conference was great.  I really enjoyed the speakers (okay, so I heard only one speaker) vibe and people.  Of course, the best part was hanging and reconnecting with friends.  Tim Schraeder created this notebook from #cat11. Great resource. I [...]

Later today I head down to Atlanta.  I had scheduled some meetings for H.E.L.P. a while back, in Atlanta, without realizing Catalyst was at the same time.  H.E.L.P.’s team member Scott Wade is doing photog for Catalyst, and H.E.L.P.’s Africa Director,  Steven, will be there (he and his family head back to Cape Town on Sunday) and one of our advisory members Charles [...]

So my blog has basically become a weekly “Monday morning breakdown” for the last few months.  I just can’t find (make) the time to blog consistently.  I have tons of posts that need to be refined and posted… just zero energy to do so. Speaking of energy: The last month I’ve had little to none.  I feel [...]

It’s Monday: Time to make the world better by our daily actions. Let’s do this! Thoughts on progress and pace. Sometimes, the slower you go…the more productive you are. Speed can be an enemy of longevity! Pace is vital. Learn who you are (strengths), what you’re called to do (passion/vocation) and who you are called to [...]
