Independence

Why does it matter?

Its a word that brings on many thoughts and feelings. It stirs memories of that first set of keys jingling in your pocket, the moving truck (old beatin up van) coming to take you to college, a first job offer that leaves you scratching your head, and that vow of marriage that changes everything.

I've always considered myself someone that stands on their own. I do. But in the end, its not much of the same. I always find myself thinking of gaining ground in many areas of life, but just to find out that wealth and wisdom of all areas of knowledge continue to humble my independent ambition.

So again, I ask, why does it matter, independence that is....

It matters because without our independence for free thought, action, worship through all of our God given freedoms then we are in the end restrainig God's creation. When we lack indepence we are in a sense putting miracles of innovation, creativivity, and talent on a shelf and waitng for it to expire.

So I challenge you to fight for God's right of claim on you and your abilities to change the world.

  Business Tips : TRACTION (EOS – Entrepreneurial Operating System) Our management is implementing a new system called “Traction”. It will provide direction over the next year through a wonderful system. We look forward to sharing it with you here. We hope you will take the journey with us. ~Telling the Story~ Some time ago, a friend of mine and his wife visited a major Maui tourist attraction called The Road to Hana. It comprised a long and winding road that, over the course of hours, took them through breathtaking scenery, waterfalls, cliffs, mountains, and beaches. At the end, there was nothing but the small town of Hana, with one gas station. When they finally arrived, my friend’s wife was very upset. She said, “We drove all of this way for this?” She missed the point. The Road to Hana is about the journey, not the destination. Don’t make the same mistake with The EOS Process. The journey of building a great business is not about the destination at all. Of course, you...

Business Tips : TRACTION (EOS – Entrepreneurial Operating System) Our management is implementing a new system called “Traction”. It will provide direction over the next year through a wonderful system. We look forward to sharing it with you here. We hope you will take the journey with us. ~Traction~ The vision is clear, the right people are in the right seats, data is managed, you’re solving issues, you have defined your way of doing business and everyone is following it. Creating accountability, discipline and execution is where most weakness reveals itself. Traction is the ability to take a visionaries head out of the clouds and place it into clear action. Many are held back for the fear of creating discomfort, but with each hard step towards systematic success, things become straightforward even with contingencies and the tremendous peace of traction. From no accountability, poor communication, stagnation, chaos you will find just the opposite with traction. Accountability...
