My wife, Kimberly and two daughters, Lucy and Eliza, will be hosting dinner tomorrow with my mother who is in town from Vietnam, some really great friends, and my wife’s family.

It’s a time that I am looking forward to just loving on them all.

Even as busy of a person as I am – I make time for the important people in my life – and I give you this as a thought for those in similar roles. Just be present with the people in your life. When you can show them your attention in the now – it matters.

Have a great day everyone. And God Bless you all.

Each morning I wake up, I feel out a worksheet I created to set my intentions for the day and what I will accomplish to make a difference for God, my family, and humanity. I review them throughout the day. And I end the day with a journal to assess my performance to hold myself accountable.

I include my mission statement and a gratitude prayer at the top of the worksheet. I’d like to share these with you and maybe they might offer you inspiration.

Mission Statement: My mission is to be a true disciple of Jesus Christ, loving my family daily, living to my fullest ability and sharing my gifts with the world.

Gratitude Prayer: Thank you God for your grace in waking me up this morning and the guidance you will give me all day long in making the right decisions, and living a Christ-centered life. Thank you for the ever-present ABUNDANCE that is reflected in each moment of my life. Thank you for the blessings you bestow upon me every day. Help me share your generosity and love with those I meet. Thank you for my wife, Kimberly, my daughters, Lucy and Eliza, my family, friends, career, health, wealth, love and physical energy & perfect health that is present and growing every day. Thank you God for allowing me to live from my higher self. I will make you proud today.

So far, it’s working great and keeping me aligned.

I’ve attached it below. Feel free to make your own.

It’s a mix of prose and biblical lesson. It invokes epiphany. Truly.

My first lesson to implement. “I will form good habits and become their slaves.”

This is so strong of a statement. I am slave to my habits as are all grown men. The only way to get ahead of any feat is to establish “good habits’. It is through the ‘bad habits’ inherited thru years of trying to figure out things myself without God that I have been side railed.

Today, I begin a new life.
