In this episode of the podcast I want to tell you about something we just did with our kids, something that applies to me and to you…
There’s a great passage tucked in the end of Proverbs that’s often misquoted.
Solomon writes, “Where there is no vision, the...
Life must be lived forward. But, it only makes sense when we learn the lessons of the past.
The final week of the year is a time when a lot of people sit down, assess the previous 365 days, and make some decisions about how things went in the recent past and what they might like to do in...
We tend to count and measure the things that matter the most. It's why we count our money and balance the checkbook at the end of the month. It's why I track our business numbers just about every single day. It's why we count our kids when we get in the car.

In session 6 at The Advance, we talk through the power of relationships. One of the biggest takeaways is this: every significant turning point in your life- good or bad- is probably marked more by a PERSON that it is a PLACE. That is, we rarely make decisions “in a vacuum.”...
