One of the main success factors is attitude. Not only is attitude a vital component in any and all success one reaps it’s also a powerful contributor to most failures in our lives. In a recent article written by Rev Bob Gass I read the following “How many jobs do people lose every day because… Continue reading The power of… ATTITUDE
Now that I have reached the age I am, which is eighty-four, and look back over time, I notice there’s been some slippage: I’ve slipped from a do-it-now person to a “gonna” one. I’ve discovered just how many things I was gonna do but never did, and how this “gonna” attitude led from small things… Continue reading The “Gonna” Pitfall
I have found that few things compare with the deep satisfaction that comes from a job well done. I’ve also tasted the opposite: at the beginning of my work career I gave half-hearted effort to whatever job I had, and reaped nothing but dissatisfaction and unhappiness with circumstances and self.

The only explanation I can think of is that deep down we Christians don’t… Continue reading The Ultimate Success Strategy

Noticing this, people often ask me which comes first: ownership, or the attitude of an owner? Do you develop the character and attitude of… Continue reading An Owner’s Attitude
Like the lobster who foolishly enters the lobster trap to go for the bait is the “want” person who lets their “want this, want that” appetite rule their behaviour. Both have lost their freedom and will end up being food for someone: the lobster on the plate of a hungry diner, and the “want” person… Continue reading The “Want” Trap
Have you ever thought about what daily workplace success would look like, or what it would feel like? Imagine coming home day after day from your workplace with that wonderful inner glow that comes from knowing you’ve successfully achieved your goal! To experience this victory feeling on a daily basis, though, you have to first… Continue reading Success for the Day
“I won’t put my heart into it until I get a job I like.” You may have heard this said, or perhaps even said it yourself.
