Daily focalPOINT – Humbly Grounded
“A belief in God helps provide a foundation to arbitrate our decisions.

Daily focalPOINT – Circumstances
“People are always blaming their circumstances for what they are. I do not believe in circumstances. The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want, and if they cannot find them, make them.” George Bernard Shaw This is one of my favorite quotes…
