Let's talk about the roller coaster. Some of you love roller coasters. Some of you hate roller coasters, some of you used to love them, and now hate them. That's the category that I fall in. And I first discovered this a couple of years ago, when we were at

I'm going to share what I've learned from spending over 1.5 million on Facebook ads, probably closer to 2 million. And it's not going to be technical. If you're looking for a technical information structure, that's not what this is going to be. I'm going to talk to you

For the last 20 years, I've had a number of different businesses. And I'm in the middle of launching a new business because I see a big need in the market. And I've been trying my best to avoid doing something that I really don't want to do. I don't

Ever wonder why some Christian entrepreneurs have the Midas Touch?  Why everything they touch.. just works?  I've been thinking about this question a lot too. I've run CBI, a Virtual Christian Business Incubator for fifteen years, worked with more than nine hundred sixty-five clients, and started ten companies in ten

Ever wondered if there is more to life than a good job? Are we the head or the tail? Are we making progress or excuses? Playing chess or checkers? I've been thinking about these questions a lot too. I've run a Christian Virtual Business Incubator for fifteen years, worked with

Ever wondered what it would be like to retire early? To live without any financial stress? I feel like God has called us to a higher standard. I believe that if anyone is to enjoy blessings, it should be us, His children, right? I've been thinking about this question a

What is true security? A business or a Job? Can a business ever be truly secure? God has not given us a spirit of fear but of power and love and a sound mind. I've been thinking about this question a lot too. I've run a Christian Virtual Business Incubator

My family and I had a fun adventure this past Saturday. We went to a local mall we hadn't visited in a while. Between my wife, my 14-year-old, my 11-year old and my five-year-old, it's sometimes hard to figure out something we'll all enjoy… But a mall does the trick.

Continued from previous article. So if you're in poverty, if you're not hitting your goals, which I consider that to be a form of poverty, if you don't have your income goals, if you are not operating in the blessing, Deuteronomy 8:18 of prosperity, I consider that to be

Continued from the previous article [https://christianbusinessincubator.ghost.io/blind-spots-3-of-5?utm=ghost] We have a feedback loop. That's very important because we talked in a previous article, which, if you haven't read, go check it out about the importance of setting a goal. Once we have a goal, we can

Continued from previous article. This is a learnable skill. You can learn this. Solomon said even a child is known by his doing whether his work is pure, whether it be right. If a child can do this you can too! So do you see a man diligent in his

Continued from part 1 [https://christianbusinessincubator.ghost.io/blind-spots-1-of-3?utm=ghost] We looked up a definition of diligence. Let's talk about synonyms of diligence, meticulousness, conscientiousness, thoroughness, carefulness. Still, these synonyms do not convey Solomon's full meaning. To understand what Solomon was talking about, we need to add qualities from

This is a five-part article. Be sure to read all of them. It's stout stuff. We're going to talk about something that many people think they know, but they don't know. Blind spots. And blind spots are what get us. It's the things that we think we know that just

A few days ago, I wrote about being decisive. I want to revisit that theme today. I want you to focus on your decisive factor. Practice this with little things. When you order food. Have you ever sat with somebody, and it takes them five minutes to order? How annoying

I wanted to share something that I think is pretty cool. I am hiring some cold callers for one of my businesses. And I'm a big believer in working ON my business and not IN my business. That is a recipe for scale and lifestyle. If you build a business,

Today, we're going to talk about a few things. The first is decisiveness. This is something that I've been working on recently. It's something that I've been coaching my kids on, and the reality is that wealthy people make decisions fast and change decisions, slow. Average people make decisions slow

Question for you? Do you want to "Operate" or "Build" a profitable and consistent business? Most people start from scratch. They have to first "Build" the business and then once it's build they have to learn to "Operate" the business. A smart few, understand the power of a "franchise" model.

Monday was fun. Some guy ran a red light and smashed into the minivan my wife was driving and my 4 year old was in. We are a grateful family...Everyone is okay. After he whacked into my wife, his car continued over the intersection about 50 feet across another

On the first day of class, Jerry Uelsmann, a professor at the University of Florida, divides his film photography students, into two groups. Everyone on the left side of the classroom would be in the “quantity” group. They would be graded solely on the amount of work they produced. On

We know more about "what is wrong" than "what is right". Let's class knowledge into two categories: 1. Negative knowledge (what is wrong, what does not work) 2. Positive knowledge (what is right, what works) Negative knowledge is more obvious to error than positive knowledge. Therefore — knowledge grows by subtraction

Order: routine, efficient Chaos: random, new, wandering The way to grow is to try something until you find a “configuration” that works. Then you go all in with that “configuration”. You optimize it and squeeze it to extract all the juice you can from that.  But at some point, someone

We thought it would be easy. We thought it would be fun. Ten 12, 13 and 14 year old girls...what could go wrong.. I’ll spare you all the details but one. We spent the night at a local hotel because our daughter wanted to have a pre-party with
