True Learning

Are you like me, in that you really love the learning process?  I can't get enough of it.  I am truly addicted to learning.  I love reading, I love listening to audios on various topics, and my greatest love of all is teaching.  There are few challenges greater than trying to inspire a group of people, of any age, to truly want to learn and educate themselves.

I believe that there are only two ways to really learn something:  1. Apply the new information in your life.  2. Teach it to someone else.

Applying new information into your own life has to be the first step.  If you're not doing what you're teaching you are a hypocrite and only a theorist.  After all, what's the point of gathering new information if you're not going to do anything with it.  You'll only sound smart until people take a closer look at your life.  The application process is really where learning begins.  It's when you start applying that new information into your life that you really begin to understand what the books and Cd's are trying to teach you. You'll fail at first.  Since you're doing something new and uncomfortable your words won't come out quite right and your timing probably won't be that great, either.  But if you have the courage to keep at it, you will get better.  Your life will improve as you hone that skill and continue to practice it.

Teaching is the ultimate in learning.  Teaching always reveals to me how much more I have to learn on a given subject, as well as how much I need to improve my communication and presentation skills.  No matter how well I think I know a subject, teaching it always reveals areas for improvement.  My favorite part of teaching is sharing knowledge and information with people who are hungry to learn and grow.  I have never had a teaching session where I didn't learn as much from the students as they learned from me.  I love how their questions force me to think and evaluate my own thoughts- why do I think the way I think?  I strongly encourage everyone to take advantage of every teachable moment that presents itself throughout your week. Sometimes you'll be the teacher, sometimes you'll be the student.  Be prepared to be whichever the situation calls for, many times you'll probably be both.

Developing Young Leaders

Listen to this Article

I believe most parents truly want their children to grow up and do something great with their life.  The question I have for parents is:  Are you?

Are you living, and pursuing, your God-given purpose every day?
Are you striving to learn and grow every day?
Are you reading every day?

If you want your children to grow into leaders, the world-shapers, of tomorrow, you need to be setting the example at home.  Do your children ever see you reading a leadership book?  If you haven't taken responsibility for your own education, your children will most likely follow your lead as they grow up.  "Do as I say, not as I do," is not leadership.  What you do will be duplicated, especially by your children.

The biggest failure I see in education today, is PARENTS.  Parents seem to want to turn their kids over to someone else, and wash their hands of the responsibility for their child's education.  Schools are programming centers.  Very few schools in our country actually educate.  They focus on teaching what to think, not how to think.  "How" to think is much more important.  Your children will not receive that kind of education at a conveyor-belt school.

As a parent, if you are not plugged into a Leadership Education yourself, your children are more likely to grow up to be part of the masses- not one of the leaders.  It is essential to your child's growth and development to see his parents constantly striving to get better; to learn and grow daily, working hard to really live their mission in life.  If you aren't already, I would strongly encourage you to get started on your leadership education.  You are worth it.  Your children and this generation desperately need it.  We need you to courageously grow your leadership-ability.

If God blessed you with the gift of children, He has also blessed you with the responsibility of leadership.  Will you answer that call?

Quarterly Study Plan

As we near the end of July, have you started thinking about your fourth quarter studies?  Are you going to study something specific to Thanksgiving or Christmas?  When was the last time you read about the Pilgrims, Plymouth Rock, or The Mayflower Compact?

What about the Reformation?  I know, as a culture, we have sold out to celebrating the pagan holiday of Halloween, but October 31 is Reformation.  The celebration of Christians breaking away from the tyranny of the Catholic Church.

And Christmas, my favorite time of year.  There is so much around Christmas to help us stay grounded in the true meaning of this blessed holiday.  From God's Word to Dickens to all the great activities available at this time of year.  Will you be attending a live nativity somewhere?  What about a horse-drawn sleigh/carriage ride?  What are some of your favorite Christmas carols?

As July comes to a close next week, it is not too early to start planning your fourth quarter.  Plan your studies to maximize your effectiveness.  Keep up the great work.

Restore the Republic

On this Independence Day weekend, it's a great time to take a serious look at our country, and ourselves.  We can all identify a dozen different problems facing our country right now.  What is your solution?  Are you one of millions blaming the politicians?  Is your answer, "If somebody would just..."?   Do you really believe that Washington is the problem, and that Washington can solve the problem?

If the last three questions identify you, then you are part of the problem.  Very few of the problems we face are rooted in Washington D.C.  All of the problems we face are rooted within the homes of America.  The root causes of our current decline are:  little, to no, parental involvement in the education of  their children; too few adults engaged in a leadership education themselves;  too many people worshiping anything as God, except for the One True God;  too many people that have chosen ease and comfort over sacrifice and freedom/liberty.

There are probably many more that we could discuss, but I think that's plenty to get the conversation started.  Ultimately, the root of all our problems is that as a nation we have turned our backs on the Lord God Almighty, and have embraced satan's empty promises of ease and pleasure.  What we need is for the men and women of this nation to turn back to God, and become Godly entrepreneurs, husbands, wives, parents, and community leaders.  This doesn't happen through any kind of legislation.  This happens by men and women rejecting the lies of Satan and the world; by being baptized and turning from their sinful lifestyles, and by submitting their lives to Christ.  It's time to turn off the t.v. and start thinking for ourselves.

The first step that you can take is to get plugged in to a self-directed leadership education.  That is essential.  A leadership education is the foundation that everything else is built upon.  If your only education is coming from a conveyor-belt school or mainstream media sources, you are voluntarily enslaving yourself to billionaires that don't care about you.  They are just happy to use you as a pawn to accomplish their agenda, i.e. influencing the way you vote and gaining the hearts and minds of your children.

If you are ready to take control of your life, contact me (use Contact Us form).  I will help you start your leadership journey and break the chains of mainstream media bondage.  God made you a genius, I would love to help you bring it out.

Summer Vacation

With summer vacation upon us, are your children done learning for the next three months?  Do you understand how detrimental this is to your children?  There is really no excuse to ever take a break from learning.

Summer vacation is actually a purposeful aspect of the conveyor belt schooling system.  Your children are being taught a lasting lesson through their summer vacations:  Studying is hard and tedious, and you should look for every opportunity to break from it and avoid learning at all costs.

Down time and relaxation are absolutely critical to restoring your mental and emotional reserves.  But there are very few legitimate reasons to ever take a three month hiatus from your education.  Learning is a life-long, year round, activity.  If you are truly educating yourself, you will never be able to take such an extended period of time off from your studies.  Once you allow learning to saturate your heart and soul, studying and learning is just who you are.  You won't be able to go long periods of time without reading and studying, because those things are who you are, it's what you do.

I invite you to start your leadership education.
