Little minds have little worries, big minds have no time for worries.
— Ralph Waldo Emerson —
A life of faith also has no time for worries. Are you a worrier? Try expanding your mind and faith by choosing to let go and let God…and let Him keep it 🙂 P.E.A.C.E. Jay@EagleLaunch.com Matthew 6:27, “And which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to his span of life?”
The most authentic thing about us is our capacity to create, to overcome, to endure, to transform, to love and to be greater than our suffering.

This quote is so true and I can’t help but think about our poor brothers and sisters who went to a Bible study in Charleston, SC without ever thinking it would be there last…at least on earth. I have two questions for you: 1. When your day comes are you ready? In other words…
Acceptance of what has happened is the first step to overcoming the consequences of any misfortune.

Life is full of shifts. Our response to the shifts will determine the type of life we live. A couple of years ago I got news about a problem with my health and I wasn’t real happy. I don’t know about you, but for most of us when a setback takes place we go through…
It is during our darkest moments that we must focus to see the light.

Truth. I observed this (above quote) in an unbelievable way last week. The way the people of Charleston, SC and especially the people of the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church responded to the senseless, evil tragedy that took place is beyond anything I’ve ever witnessed in my life. It is amazing how peaceful human…
Your present circumstances don't determine where you can go; they merely determine where you start.

It is never too late to start…just don’t be in a hurry. P.E.A.C.E. Jay@EagleLaunch.com Joshua 1:9, “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.”
And fathers, don't stir up anger in your children, but bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord.

Happy Father’s Day to my fellow Dads out there! I also want to send prayers and thoughts to some of my Dad readers who’ve lost a child…Keith, I still pray for you every morning brother. Back in the formative years of my adult life I spent way too much time Rocking and Rolling and the rolling…
Always do your best. what you plant now, you will harvest later.
— Og Mandino —
What you plant now, you WILL harvest later…I write from experience. What are you planting right now? Good seed or crap? Over the last several days; how many people and circumstances have you lifted up and injected energy into? Over the last several days; how many people and circumstances have you torn down and…
The greatest way to live with honor in this world is to be what we pretend to be.

I am so blessed to be able to offer assistance to many leaders during this second half of my professional life. I’ve always been intrigued with leadership and if there is a book on leadership, I’ve read it. The most important trait a leader must possess is the trait of walking the walk and…
