It's been my experience that people who make proclamations about themselves are usually the opposite of what they claim to be.
Get in God's word every day. God's word equips us for everything we do.
Movies are definitely more fun because there are so many different seasons in a movie. It is exciting to be drafting together. Writing a book is very hard, it's like writing 15 college term papers in a row, and you are just like, "when is going to end?" You can communicate so much more when you are writing a book, and you can go so much deeper.
Jesus communicated parables to the secular people around him and he used stories that were very relevant to their lives, and He was taking heaven's truth and packaging it in an earthly context.
Often parents have a great desire and hopes, and aspirations for their kids but they don't have any practical plans of action.
Sometimes it wasn't even when we were knocking on doors, it would be, the phone would ring and somebody would say, "God told me to do this," and it would be exactly the perfect timing to help us with the next step of the filmmaking.
Well that's basically how we launched Sherwood Pictures, and with our films, we sat down and we had a long list of specific things that we were praying for God to provide, and then we would just deal with all those things in prayer first, and then when we went out and began knocking on doors and calling, it was clear that God was going before us and providing the way and sending the resources.
The critical thing about the design process is to identify your scarcest resource. Despite what you may think, that very often is not money. For example, in a NASA moon shot, money is abundant but lightness is scarce; every ounce of weight requires tons of material below. On the design of a beach vacation home, the limitation may be your ocean-front footage. You have to make sure your whole team understands what scarce resource you're optimizing.
The attitude in terms of how players work both on and off the field has a massive impact on us as coaches but also the performance and how the team does as well.
You beef wit me, I'm-a even the score equally. Take you on Jerry Springer and beat your ass legally.
Success is mine when I work my hardest to become my best, and I alone determine whether I do so.
