You need to reduce unnecessary risk.

When your decision affects income, reputation, or stability,

  • Humility Isn’t Bad. The Meaning We Inherited Is.

    Every day, I read the chapter in Proverbs that corresponds with the date. If there are only 30 days in the month, I read both chapters 30 and 31 on the last day. It’s a discipline Steven K. Scott learned from Gary Smalley, and the logic is simple: if wisdom is available, why wouldn’t you…

  • If you find yourself in a hole, STOP DIGGING!

    What’s our natural tendency when things go wrong? What happens when someone says something we don’t like? What happens when we’re looking for something but can’t find it?

  • Be Wary of the New, Different or Unknown

      How useless to spread a net in full view of the birds This 17th verse from the first chapter in Proverbs captured my imagination this morning. I wanted to understand it more fully. What did this mean exactly? In order to catch birds fowlers (persons occupied as bird catchers) spread their nets, in clear…

  • Life in the Past Lane

    Life ALWAYS provides clues. This is not the main message but keep this in mind. Got up early this morning and had Emmet Fox on my mind. I have a copy of his book “Around the Year with Emmet Fox” and wondered what today’s entry would offer. [For those of you who don’t know Emmet…
