Run Your Own Race

It’s not your job to tell yourself no. It’s not your job to reject yourself or grade yourself or debate the value or worthiness of your ideas. Your job is to create. Your job is to share. Your job is to overcome fear and run the race. Yes, if you build something people might judge it or dislike it. But if you don’t create and share the things that you have inside of you, then you’ll commit the far worse crime of rejecting yourself. You can either be judged because you created something or ignored because you left your greatness inside of you.

Someone asked me this question recently: what do children of diplomats do when they’re stuck? Answer: same thing as what their parents frequently do: they ask for help!

Who is the Truly Rich Man?

I may not be famous, I may not be wealthy, and I may not be powerful. But family comes first and in their eyes I’m number 1. That’s all that matters.  Happy Monday from our family to yours! Keep accumulating real wealth – the relationships that matter to you most. You can never go wrong in investing more time with your kids and your spouse. Read that line again.

Ease vs. Hardship? Which Leads to Greater Happiness?

It is natural for people to want to lead a life of comfort and ease. Most people do not seek out hardship for hardship’s sake. Hardship is difficult and often painful. However, it leads to growth. No hardship, no growth. No growth, no fruit. A successful life, therefore, is not a life without hardship. It is one with hardship. Success dies with the person. The fruit you bear, however, lasts even after you’re gone. Now that’s the kind of legacy worth leaving, a generational one. Each of us decides our own legacy. Don’t wait to make yours.
