Fall In Love With Your Life

Maria Carter and I met at an On-Purpose Person workshop I conducted in San Diego around 1995.  She bubbled with enthusiasm for life and people.  She has a voice and spirit that is positively uplifting.

At the time we met, Maria had a dream of helping people learn to love themselves more fully.   I'm proud to recommend her book, Fall In  Love With Your Life Forever.  This work is an expression of her purpose and is true gift to women who struggle with their inner critic.  Go to her website and order the book today. 

Guys, it is a great gift to give to women in your life.  Wives, daughters, and mothers alike will benefit from calming their self critical voice and allowing their true selves to emerge on-purpose.  Not only will her life be better, but so will yours.   If momma is happy, then everyone is happy.  ; )   

How Good Are Your Questions?

Is the mark of a leader their ability to give solid answers or to ask great questions? In this On-Purpose Minute I explore some of the benefits of being a great questioner.

What is the Upside to a Down Economy?

Financial challenges rip at a misplaced sense of security.   These can be very challenging and humbling times.   My business has been hurting this year because I allowed myself to be in a position where a client could stiff me for a large sum of money.  The ripple effects touch every aspect of my life and business. 

Because we're working as a team and as a family, good is coming out of the hardship.   How about you?  Please share your comments or story of the upside of a down economy.  Your thoughts may inspire, comfort, or encourage someone in a similar situation to see things in a more positive and productive light.   Hope need never be lost.

Crown Ministries Founder Howard Dayton

Howard Dayton is one of the creators of Crown Financial Ministries.  I've been blessed to participate in several Crown Ministries programs over the years.  In fact, my Crown Group still meets regularly to study, learn, grow, and support each other in life and work.  

Howard and I first connected back in 1993 when The On-Purpose Person was first released.  I remember having lunch with him and being impressed with his gracious manner, genuine faith, and sense of call upon his life.  Here was an on-purpose person par excellence.  At the time, I remember Howard's excitement that over 27,000 people that year had participated in the Crown Financial Ministries flagship program:  Biblical Financial Study.  Today, there are probably 27,000 per week doing this program.   It is life transforming.  Do this program! 

Over the years, Howard and my paths would cross from time to time with chance meetings in airports and such.   Wednesday, Howard was the keynote speaker at the stewardship dinner for my church – All Saints Episcopal- Winter Park. We shared a brief reunion. I was delighted to have this photo snapped so I could share it with you.  I treasure his leadership and example.

Few of us will ever have the opportunity to transform so many lives.  So meet my friend Howard Dayton and give thanks for his life and ministry.  By the way, October 7 was his 66th birthday.  Happy birthday Howard! 

Be On-Purpose!
