Be Successful Today, not Tomorrow

There is no difference between today and tomorrow. None. Time is man-made, therefore if you want to be successful tomorrow, you must be successful today. Otherwise the success you want tomorrow will never come. We always live in the present, no matter what we do. That's what society tells us to do. So do it, but be mindful of how you do it. 

The first big leap is to view yourself as successful right now. If you can do this, you can become successful, you must look for a market no one else has done, or a variation of a market, you must see it- you must create it. You must see it now, you cannot expect to see it tomorrow because you are always in today and tomorrow will never come- because it doesn’t. You can't let yourself think like that. Tomorrow is always tomorrow, tomorrow is a "today" to come. "I'll do it tomorrow" is NEVER good enough, do all you can do every day and this will help you succeed more profoundly than any self help book. Living in the now is one of the most important functions man must learn to be able to shape tomorrow. You have heard the expression "he lives in the future." NO he doesn’t, he lives in today because his future will one day become today. You have to see today as your future. Your perception of accomplishment is one of the biggest hurdles you have to jump in order to be able to achieve greatness.

Breaking this down: if you see the future as today, and are successful right now, you are allowing yourself to build on that tomorrow (your next "today"). The snowball effect then comes and your success gets bigger and bigger with each "today", and you are now in the future you were focusing on in your first "today". You see, you were are already concentrating on the next day by being the best you can be today, without realizing it. You just continue to grow. 

Be the man you want to be TODAY.

Christianity and Irony

Easter 2015

I find it quite ironic that Wisconsin beat Kentucky during Easter Weekend. To the majority of people watching basketball, I am sure this came as quite a shock. Roughly 2,000 years ago, there was a much larger event that shook our world. The death and resurrection of our Savior, Jesus Christ.

I also believe a majority of Christians would agree the ideals and values of Christianity are constantly under attack by the media, government, and surrounding social groups. This disappoints me because I am sure they do not know who my God is. I can't see how a God who wants YOU to be a part of the greatest story ever told, is offensive.

My Lord, is The Lord of all who walk the earth. As foretold in the Old Testament, Jesus came speaking words of love, praising our God, and one mission. He was not afraid. He was not meek.  He wasn't a sheep… or a wolf. He told you how it was. He believed every man was equal, he believed every man had an opportunity to be saved, he believed in you. Jesus wants to share with humanity the greatest gift we could ever imagine, eternal life. All you have to do is believe in him and the rest comes naturally. He has already done all of the work. He sacrificed himself for you, first.

He didn't come to this world and sacrifice himself for the sins of Christians. He came here for you and me. He came for the Jews, Christians, non-believers, Muslims, Hindus, and Buddhists. 

All of you. 

All of you are forgiven and welcomed to be a part of His way.

Christianity is not offensive. The only way my religion can be construed as offensive, is by welcoming you to be a part of it.   He is Risen.
