Good Read

My brother sent me this the other day and loved it! Def worth a read; I read this blog post and it was a guy who asked for the top advice from the wisest people he knew. Here is the list: The most important person you can lead is yourself. Nothing is more valuable than relationships. Maximize the moments with your children. Listen—you will never find the pulse of your family or organization if you don’t learn to listen. Worrying is temporary atheism. Rid yourself of worry. Become a better steward of your financial resources through investments and wise decision-making. The older you get the more you’ll want to give away, being able to do so begins with the financial decisions you make today. Balance—the words “No” and “Not now” are empowering when accompanied with wisdom. Spend time reading and receiving the Truth every morning, because the world will only lie to you the rest of the day. Saying “I’m sorry,” when spoken from a genuine heart, has great healing power. Character should always trump talent. Retreat and Rest—if ships don’t come back to the harbor, they’ll eventually sink. Don’t stop learning—you’re not as smart as you think. Learn to value patience. You’re likely to learn more while you wait. Time management—without it time will control you. Develop authentic and deep relationships with men who will sharpen you and see through you.
