Fear and intimidation is the most common and easy shark attack to fall prey to.

Sharks don’t eat fish because of anything the fish do. They don’t eat fish because those fish aren’t good enough fish, or because those fish aren’t nice enough to the sharks. Sharks eat fish because they are sharks.

If you’re waiting for the perfect opportunity, the perfect training, or the perfect tools before you step out in obedience to God, you’ll be waiting forever.

The one thing every successful person has in common is that they started where they WERE with what they HAD. That’s all they could do, and that’s all you can do too.

Nothing equips you for success like noble failure.

We wanted to help people, but because we gave so much of an allowance to negative people in our lives, we lost sight of the big picture. We wasted our time on people who couldn’t be pleased, and we felt like we had failed.

If you always take responsibility for the people who wrong you or don’t like you, you will be bound by a spirit of people pleasing and, ultimately, miss your destiny!

Great leaders don’t allow failure to redefine their purpose- they use failure to refine their purpose.

Whether you fail or succeed doesn’t alter the identify or purpose God has placed in you.
