What Are You Going Through

Every Monday Matters. Are Mondays a drag for you? No matter what adversities you are facing here is a tip for you:

Instead of focusing on what you are going through, focus on what you are going to.

Wants vs Committments

"I want to be in better shape!" "I want to get better grades!" "I want to have a great relationship."


I have two words for you. WHO CARES!
Who cares what you want? The question is, What are you COMMITTED to? Let me watch your actions and I'll tell you your commitments.

What we want, is just something we say. It is not an action or a confession of achieving it.

"Thoughts determine what you want. But actions determine what you get." ~Dr. Rob Gilbert

Wins? Losses? Or Lessons? What Drives You?

At this Sunday's Super Bowl Game, the average person will learn about 2 things and some will complain about them.
The win!
Or the loss!

But there are those who will watch for the lessons being learned. Why? Because they know that success leaves clues. And they are looking for any secret for their gain.

Just ask the great Lou Holtz Football coach who wrote the book, "Wins, Losses, and Lessons."

They know this, "A day without learning is a day without living." ~Lou Holtz

Can You Be Half Committed?

A great football coach once said, "A half hearted commitment is worse than no commitment at all." He also said, "You can tell a lot about a person's character, not by the mistakes he has made, but how he has handled those mistakes."

Who is he?

Are you committed to growing through your mistakes? Or are you committed to just going through them?
