In my latest newsletter, I'm exploring the tension of "10X thinking" for faith-driven leaders. We all want to reach our goals faster, but we have to ask: to what end, and with what motivation? Read more on the delicate balance between ambition and surrender.

@JoshuaBarzon I always liked the chi rho.. also the Celtic knot, however saw way too many tats in the 90's so it ruined it for me :)

Which ancient Christian symbol do you like best?

@Codie_Sanchez It's worse than your world- it's your soul.

You'll never be able to get back time with your parents, your kids, your spouse. Don't gain the world and lose your world.

To reach that vastly different future, you must actively dismantle or abandon the very things that define your present.

The Christian hope is not about escaping a doomed planet to go to a spiritual "heaven." The goal is the renewal of all things.

There is more than enough, because the Source is not the economy, our job, or our own strength—the Source is the infinite, inexhaustible, creative goodness of God Himself. #notetoself

Leadership is lonely when you let it be.

Self-awareness is just the starting line. True leadership begins when you master leading yourself.

When you finally stop obsessing over the outcomes—and start focusing on faithfulness in the inputs—something powerful happens: peace. You realize God holds the results. You’re called to plant, water, show up, obey. He’s the one who makes it grow.

You're not pursuing perfection, you're avoiding the messy reality of progress. #notetoself

Company culture is not soft. It’s strategic. Are you intentionally building a healthy culture?

You carry more than responsibility—you carry a calling. You’re not just leading a business or organization. You’re stewarding people, culture, and Kingdom impact.

Intellectual wandering is a luxurious form of procrastination. #notetoself

The hard truth is that your visionary mind is currently a liability, not an asset, because it's leading to diffusion, not focus. #notetoself

@cliftonsellers Pay debt. Give 10%. Invest in buying a small business.

If you got handed $5M, what’s your next move?

@MatthewBerman Isaiah 26:3

I can't fall asleep at night. I've tried everything, nothing helps. * Exercise daily * Sunlight first thing in the morning * First and last coffee 7:30am * No screens before bed * Last meal 4 hours before bed * Meditation * Sleep restriction * I don't drink alcohol * Only get in bed when ready to sleep * Weighted blanket * 8 Sleep set to cool * Room is cold But, without fail, my brain won't let me sleep. I get to the point where I'm about to fall asleep, then I wake up and that's it...I'm up. Any suggestions are very welcome. cc @bryan_johnson

Most leaders don’t wake up wondering how to drive compliance. But that’s often where they end up. They set vision, create strategy, roll out processes—and then find themselves managing behavior instead of multiplying belief.

@thejustinwelsh I love using short- and long-term planning! Add purpose as foundation and fuel!

Here is how I think about my business: - Goals: Decades - Strategy: Yearly - Tactics: Quarterly - Effort: Daily I simply plan on outlasting most people.

@TheNolanGore Not enough people think about this! Investing in those fundamental team interactions – the communication and relationship dynamics –is foundational!

I spend a lot of time thinking about how my team (especially my managers) interact. How are their relationships? Do they like each other? Are there things that are rubbing in their relationships? We do not all need to be best friends...or even friends...but enjoying your coworkers is a heck of a retention tool... ...and it's just good for life.
