Giving up on God’s assignment on your life because of naysayers, manipulators, fear, or setbacks is the biggest mistake we can make.

You have to learn how to deal with difficult situations and difficult people! They are never going away!

You live in shark-infested waters. You can either be afraid and intimidated or you can learn to deal with them.

If you get out of the boat, you’re going to have to learn how to swim. You’re going to have to learn to adapt, think new thoughts, and learn new skill sets. You’re going to have to change, and that’s what God wants!

God wants us to get out of the boat, get into the water, and learn as we go.

I want to encourage you, don’t settle- build the dream God has given you!

You risk failure no matter what you do, so why not do what you love?

You can always find a reason to hesitate, to quit, or to delay jumping headfirst into your dreams, but you’ll never step into the call on your life until you do.

If we live in a place of hurt, how can we be effective in our own lives or in impacting others?
