Steps

Each day your life is taking steps toward success or failure; it's your choice.

  Success is simple, but it takes action. P.E.A.C.E. Jay@EagleLaunch.com Proverbs 16:3, “Commit your work to the Lord, and your plans will be established.”  (ESV)

Work and Wait

Great things come to those who wait but continue to work their butts off while waiting.

Yesterday I achieved a goal I set for myself a couple of years ago.  I completed a ½ Ironman Triathlon distance race twice in one month…so I could say I did a full Ironman (2.4mi swim, 112mi bike, 26.2mi run) in one month. This particular goal took me three years longer than I wanted because…

Success and Fire

Success isn't a result of spontaneous combustion. You must set yourself on fire.

— Arnold H. Glasgow —

  It always amazes me how much a dream with a plan turns a life or a business on fire. Discipline and focus keeps the fire lit. P.E.A.C.E. Jay@EagleLaunch.com 1 Chronicles 16:11, “Seek the Lord and his strength; seek his presence continually!”

Small Disciplines

Small disciplines repeated with consistency every day lead to great achievements gained slowly over time.

— John Maxwell —

  Next Sunday I will be doing another 1/2 Ironman Triathlon which consist of a 1.2 mile swim, 56 mile bike ride and a 13.1 mile run…I’m not boasting but seeking your prayer support as this distance usually means I am working the “old” heart for 6 solid hours and also missing lunch. 🙂 I’ve…

Action and Wind

To the person who does not know where he wants to go there is no favorable wind.

— Seneca —

  …nuff said. P.E.A.C.E. Jay@EagleLaunch.com Habakkuk 2:2, “And the Lord answered me:  ‘Write the vision; make it plain on tablet, so he may run who reads it.”

Goals and Happiness

If you want to be happy, set a goal that commands your thoughts, liberates your energy and inspires your hopes.

— Andrew Carnegie —

  I love this quote by Andrew Carnegie. Visualizing a dream and creating a plan for execution through goal setting does indeed command your thoughts, liberates your energy and inspires your hopes…I write from experience. No matter where you are in life or what the Good Lord has given you to handle, set goals in…

Inside Out

Get the inside right. The outside will fall into place.

— Eckhart Tolle —

  I see a fair share of people these days who are impatiently chasing the next shiny object. In this quest for shiny objects is a neglect of truly understanding and knowing ourselves on the inside and a disconnect with what God has planned for us on the outside. I was one of these “shiny…

Paint It and Live It

Paint the picture you would like your life to become and then do the things you need to do one step at a time, and one day at a time in order for the picture to become your life.

— JJM —

  It is amazing how we begin to change once we put our life vision (what we want to “be”) as well as our life mission (what we need to do in order to “be”) in writing and on paper and review our vision/mission on a daily basis. The simple acts of writing and reviewing…

Winner Vision

Losers visualize the penalties of failure. Winners visualize the rewards of success.

— Unknown —

  What are you “seeing” these days? If you don’t like what you are seeing, it may be time to put on a new set of glasses and choose to view the world differently. P.E.A.C.E. Jay@EagleLaunch.com John 9:39, “For judgment I have come into this world, so that the blind will see and those who…

Mats

Accept responsibility for your life. Know that it is you who will get you where you want to go, no one else.

— Les Brown —

  Thanks Les!  Once I figured this out I could get to work with God and begin designing a life for my family and I. So often we forget no one can pick up our mats (read the scripture below) for us.  We have to make the decision to pick it up and seek God’s…
