Self Assessment is by far one of the most pivotal things you can do to help move your business, idea, non-profit, or life forward. This episode is all about how we did it, complete with interviews, examples, and a lot of laughs.

For season two of the podcast we want to continue with the metaphor of starting a fire. No great camp fire or fire in your fireplace thrives without someone who is diligently tending to it. That means adding new wood and removing the debris. Paying attention to the things that we’re trying to create can mean the difference between hoping for something nice and creating something great… so this season we’re going to be taking you inside our own fire, the church plant called beacon in Denver Colorado.

There is something to be said about the drive needed to do something new. We’ve talked about single-minded purpose or laser-like focus before but let’s be clear that’s not narrow sighted selfishness. We cannot mistake the need to be driven for the desire to be narcissistic.

In life, set-backs are inevitable but the difference between a minor slow down and a permanent stop is all in how you see it.

Too many leaders are busy trying to surround themselves with the leaders they think will make them matter at the expense of those they lead... the people to whom you actually matter.

This episode is really about personal growth. It can easily be ascribed to spirituality, business, or entrepreneurism. The whole idea we want to tackle today is that we need to be faithful not famous

Leading people is one of the most challenging things you can do. Simply put: people are a trip, here’s how to make sure they don’t trip you up on your journey.

The worse it feels the better you get. God is always working to refine us and that means he’s burning and pruning things that we no longer need and removing parts that don’t please him. It hurts and that’s good. Here’s how pain helps.

There’s this current self-help notion among people interested in purpose it’s ok to cut people off. The toxic people, the disrespectful people, the disagreeable people. That notion is wrong. STOP CUTTING PEOPLE OFF

Any time you endeavor to do something great, you’ll find the distractions increase exponentially. If you really want to win, you have to keep the main thing, the main thing.

There’s an old-school axiom passed down from generations meant to inspire young people to lead and work with strength and dignity but it’s a big fat lie. Never let them see you sweat is the dumbest thing we’ve ever told ourselves and today we’re going to change that!

Timing is everything: there is a difference between doing things right now and doing things right. For the dreamers out there, it can be very difficult to slow our pace and get things in order but preparation can mean the difference between a fleeting fire and a long burn
