My favorite personal development tool is my Ipod. Anyone who is serious about changing their life needs to invest in an mp3 player of some sort. I recommend the Ipod. Why do you need an mp3 player? It can hold thousands of songs that can be organized and best of all, it’s portable.

In evaluating my own relationships its very clear who my reasons, seasons, and lifetimes are and vice versa.

I’m very thankful to have crossed paths with such remarkable people throughout my life and I look forward to crossing paths with many more.  Read more...
