I like the freedom to think and be creative, and I believe we all have a desire to create what we think. Allow the people around you to harness the creative juices within. I have made millions of dollars for my employers over the years because they understood this principle. Little do you know that […]

If you are trying to cut costs and save money, here is a word of advice: if it’s not necessary in the overall scheme of accomplishing your goals, eliminate it. Get basic cable instead of premium channels. Have the expense of one car instead of two. Eat tuna and chicken more often than filet mignon. […]

Executive level thinkers want to be on top – first place, the head honcho. There is a curious pride that comes with being the best at what you do. God has a “me-first” mentality, and so should you. God expects the best from us, but He only gives the best to us. Don’t get your […]

I remember an opportunity that presented itself to me ten years ago. A basket business owner and his wife wanted to sell me their business. They had started and run the business for 20 years and wanted to retire to Florida. They had what I thought was a great product – they shipped baskets filled […]

I have learned over the last 15 years that people are essential to my success. With that in mind, those relationships need to be cultivated and nurtured.

“This week will bring about a significant shift in my life. Doors that I have only dreamed about will open and those dreadful doors of yester year will close. I am “beautifully and wonderfully made” and that’s why I will not be defeated by any enemy or obstacle. My friends support me, my family loves […]

A character in a Tyler Perry movie once said, “When people show you who they are the first time, BELIEVE THEM!” One can waste so much time and energy over a lifespan, that in hindsight it’s almost insane. If the girl you are dating now cheated on her previous boyfriend and has already cheated on […]

It’s no secret that nothing stays the same forever. Be ready for and embrace the possibilities that change can offer. Executive level thinkers become rich when change presents itself. Those who fear change usually get left behind. You may need to change jobs to get to where you want to be even if you have […]

“Decide today that mediocrity will not be the norm in your life. You will soar with the eagles not scratch with the chickens. You will run like the gazelle instead of wallowing like the swine. Today brings new possibilities to you if it visits no one else. Triumph is the word of the day not […]

“If you buy a house, whether new or old, it was originally someone else’s dream. I have a goal to design and build my own house, as it represents me building my dream home. I have owned several homes, and while each one had certain things I liked, each also had some things I disliked. […]
