When we are old and our days are beginning to wind down, what will actually be left? Not the meetings we attended. Not the emails we answered. Not the long lists of tasks that once felt so important. What will remain are the stories. Someday, God willing, we’ll find ourselves sitting with friends, family, or [...]
As 2025 is winding down, we're days away from Christmas, the week between Christmas and New Year's Day. With a desire to maximize these last few days of the year, I went back to my AI Personal Board of Directors, I asked this question: “Ending the year, what should I be focused on over the [...]
As I started mapping out my goals for 2026, I caught myself wondering: What might I be missing? What should I not forget? I have a goal-setting tool I use every year, and it’s been incredibly valuable for bringing structure and clarity to what I’m working toward. But even with a strong process in place, [...]
The Problem With Most Goal Setting Every January, millions of people set resolutions… and most will abandon them by February. The reason? Resolutions lack structure. They’re built on emotion, not intention. Wishes like “I want to lose weight,” “make more money,” or “be happier” might sound inspiring in the moment, but they’re not a plan. [...]

Whether you lead a team of two or two hundred, these qualities separate good leaders from [...]
Picture this: A project manager sends a quick Slack message to their team late on a Friday afternoon. The message is short, maybe even a little abrupt: “Need the numbers for Monday’s meeting. Please send ASAP.” One team member reads it and feels attacked. “Why is she always on my case? Does she think I’m [...]
What makes a man truly Godly? Recent weeks have had me reflecting more on the disciplines of a Godly man and how we show up spiritually today. The disciplines of a Godly man don’t involve luck and chance, or simply showing up at church on Sunday. A Godly man is shaped by daily choices, the [...]
There’s been a lot of buzz lately about morning routines. Everyone wants the secret hack, the quick fix that will unlock personal and professional success. The truth? There are very few real hacks. Growth takes work, and that work starts the moment you wake up. The time right after you wake up is a gift. [...]
When Carol Dweck first introduced the idea of a growth mindset, she exposed something most of us already knew deep down: the way you think about yourself shapes what’s possible for you.
