If you don’t design your own life plan, chances are you’ll fall into someone else’s plan. And guess what they have planned for you? Not much. ~Jim Rohn No matter how big or small your dream is, take a stab at creating a plan to achieve it. The world is not changed by dreamers the…

“Opportunities multiply as they are seized.” – Sun Tzu My former business partner often said, “there are no free lunches.” If something great is going to happen in your life, you and only you can make it happen. Try adding a little “P.E.A.C.E.” to your life:Â Create a sound Plan, put forth Effort, apply the…

Proverbs 21:5
“Good planning and hard work lead to prosperity, but hasty shortcuts lead to poverty.” –Proverbs 21:5 (NLT) For those of you wondering why you are not prospering: …do you have a plan? …are you working hard? …are you avoiding the easier, softer way (i.e. shortcuts)?? Nuff Said. P.E.A.C.E. jay@eaglelaunch
Attach a plan to your “Yes or No”
Proverbs 13:4, “The soul of a lazy man desires, and has nothing; But the soul of the diligent shall be made rich.” Â (NKJV) (This is a continuation of “Yes or No”) A phrase I often say to myself is “the only thing separating success from failure is a plan reduced to writing.” Although having my…
Yes or No?
Matthew 5:37, “But let your ‘Yes’ be ‘Yes’, and your ‘No’, ‘No.’ Â For whatever is more than these is from the evil one.” (NKJV) I can remember many years ago sitting in my group therapy session during the early parts of my treatment center stay and the counselor asked us how we felt. Â The decade…
Ants “just do it”
Proverbs 6:6-11, “Go to the ant, you slacker! Observe its ways and become wise. Without leader, administrator, or ruler, it prepares its provisions in summer; it gathers its food during harvest. How long will you stay in bed, you slacker? When will you get up from your sleep? A little sleep, a little slumber, a…
Proverbs 19…Who’s driving your life?
Proverbs 19:21, “You can make many plans, but the Lord’s purpose will prevail.” This is one of my favorite Proverbs as it reminds me just how much control I really don’t have. I found out the hard way that it is much easier to swim with God’s current than against it and one way I…
Proverbs 12…P.E.A.C.E
The 12th Proverb touches on several aspects of effective living. It was easy to pull a verse and match it with each of the letters of my P.E.A.C.E. acrostic. As I’ve touched on several times in the past; successful people have a Plan, put forth consistent Effort to execute the plan, have an Attitude that believes…
Proverbs 10…words
A worthwhile exercise I always suggest for my coaching clients is to develop a vision statement for their life. The vision serves to keep you on course and helps ensure time is not being wasted on “nonvision” activities. Having a vision statement allows you to step back from whatever you are doing and ask yourself,…
