 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.

~Finances~

You can learn a lot about finances just by tracking yours. What is coming in and what is going out. Physically track it on paper. If you do that for a few weeks, you will know where and how your money is going. Another option is to learn from the best. They have a Financial Fitness Program called “Financial Fitness: The offense, defense, and playing field of personal finance – CONTACT ME IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN THIS.

I have also written a book called Life for Life that helps understand how to use your money twice.

Ask us for help should you want to learn more on finances.

Learning a New Language

Learning a language is a fantastic way of improving your mental capabilities. When you learn a new language, you expose yourself to a brand-new set of rules and vocabulary that exercise your brain muscles.

In theory, you’re training your brain to function better by learning a new language. Research shows that bilinguals take more rational decisions and have a stronger working memory.

Being bilingual can open a lot more doors in life than you’d think. By learning a local language, you can better connect with the people of that area.

One of the easiest ways to learn any language is by using a language learning app. Here’re some good ones recommended for you

Notable quotes: They are italicized above.

Live the abundant life

                Its sometimes hard to detail “abundant” as many have differing world views. However, by now, you know mine. When the world says, pick yourself up by your bootstraps – it can leave you empty without any foundation to hold onto. When the world says, you will get through it or it will be ok or sorry for your loss – it still leaves you questioning…..really?

                The abundant live places your safety, confidence, and trust in a God that knows your name and you personally as your creator. There is a specific plan that outlines for us the truth and foundational principles that align with both the spiritual and physical world. So what about this abundant life?

                Even in the darkest, most confusing, hardest, most depressed, indecisive, best days God does more for us than we likely want to admit. So it is that abundance comes when we realize that nothing is ours in the first place including the next breath. Therefore, we can live in abundance knowing that we can get up and return quickly to joy knowing that there is a plan for us beyond what we experience in the here and now. That’s the gospel.

Something I want you to know:

Learn finances, being competitive, learning a new language and understanding living an abundant life.
