OK, so I am one of the old guys of Twitter; now @x. I have been around since September of 2008. But, here is who I am...
...I am a husband, father, G-Paw.
...I am a person who wants people to get better.
...I am a coffee addict.
...I am a recovering control freak.
...I am not perfect, just "past broken, moving forward."
...I am not as "mean" as you think.
...I get frustrated by the small things of life.
...I have "Grew up outside in the 80's syndrome."
...I broke the paradigm I grew up with.
...I say the "inside things" outside.
...I love people, but they annoy me.
...I hope I live to be 125.
...I believe the past is behind us for a reason.
...I believe people are greater than what they know.
...I believe the best time to be alive is now.
...I believe that 98.7% of people are good people.
...I believe that Jesus is the only Savior.
...I believe that tater tots are better than fries.
...I believe politics is a soul-sucking leech.
...I believe that the next generation is awesome.
...I believe that the retirement is a facade of being lazy.
...I believe that college does not have to be an "option."
...I believe education starts at home.
...I have stories many think are not true.
...I have a hard time saying, "No." But I am learning.
...I desire to do better each day.
...I want to build a network of great people.
...I want to help my grandchildren start businesses.
...I want people to go to heaven.
So, there is some of me. Now, who are you?

On Veterans Day, pause long enough to say thank you. Freedom is not free, and the men and women who carried that cost deserve more than a quiet nod. Thank God for them. Tell one you are grateful.

Veterans Day isn't just about flags and free pancakes. Somebody gave years of their life so you could complain about traffic in a free country.
Thank one veteran by name today, then go use that freedom on something worth their sacrifice.

Grok @Bot people: Here is a cheat code I have learned. I ask @Bot this question each week. I love the breakdown. It is like a staff meeting.
"Can you evaluate the use of bots this week and see how I can improve communication or we can improve the bots. Also, check to see what bots can be added to improve the the workflow and output."
So far, it is working wonderfully.

When someone asks if I have ADD/ADHD/ABCEDFG...hey!
I show them this. These are results from a test a few years ago. I always wanted to be above average.

Somebody out there will spend all day complaining about a problem they could fix in ten minutes. Don't be that somebody.
Grab the ten minutes, solve the thing, and enjoy the quiet where the grumbling used to live.
Quit feeding your problems snacks.
Have any other @Outlook users noticed it being a little annoying the past week? It is like a angry three-year-old in Mountain Dew while trying to watch the Wiggles while eating cookies on the couch.
Complete chaos.

A full calendar is not a full cup. Before you squeeze one more thing into today, read Psalm 23 and give the Shepherd your attention. Busy is not the same as restored.

Today we put out three courses on the Ministry website. I need a few people to test them out for me.
Message me or just go ahead and sign-up.

Most weeks get spent waiting for Friday. What if you treated Monday like it mattered just as much? Show up. Be kind. Do the work. Let God handle the scoreboard.

Your excuses worked overtime last week. Give them Monday off. You don't need perfect weather, a new planner, or a better mood to start. You need ten honest minutes and the nerve to begin badly. Begin badly. Fix it Tuesday. Life is not that bad, and neither are you.
It is late. It has been a full day. We are going to soft relaunch an online business tomorrow. It is exciting.

Many people want a large home, a beach house, a couple supercars, fame, constant parties to be invited to, and be followed by thousands of followers.
I want an RV to travel with my wife. Travel to see our parents, kids, close friends, and a writing speaking business on the side.
I want a close group of friends that support each other. They challenge, they push, they love, they help you to reach forward.
That is fun.

X is where people scroll by every post, until you...
(1) make a spelling error
(2) say something they do not like
...then the unload or comment like a wounded dog with anger issues brought on my ADHD childhood trauma on crack.
Your weekly reminder is...Don't be that person. Be an encouragement, not a life-sucking-leech.

Sunday isn't a leftover day you kill until Monday shows up. It's yours.
Rest if you're tired. Worship if that's your practice. Do one small thing that makes tomorrow kinder to you.
The week will come either way. Meet it standing, not scrambling.

Watching football and reflecting on what @caefurd mentioned to me this week about Alabama. If @CoachForGov and get Alabama politics in gear, there is great hope for this to become a "technology forward moving state."
I hope it happens; especially in our area. It needs industry.

Last week, was a bear. Coming back from 8 days of travel and speaking, then to play catch-up with church admin, coffee shop, writing, creating, and more.
Today is a look at life for the next week.
What is your schedule?
