Nobody's Fault But Mine

All the different genrations have their positives and negatives I suppose.  Do you know which one you bleong too?  In this episode we dive into the 3 or 4 most recent generations and talk through the good, bad and sometimes ugly part of being "labeled".  And, how does Religion or Christianity fit into each of the newer generations.  You might be surprised at the results.  Thanks and God Bless.

Why is Valentine's Day, Valentine's Day?  Where did it come from and why is it so close to the Super Bowl?  Are they both pagan festivals that were meant to be very close to each other?  Are the players in the NFL, Gods in a sense that should be worshipped and given sacrifices?  What on earth am I talking about?  Well, listen to this episode and find out.  God Bless.  

I heard someone in a YouTube video once say that we are all the "CEO's of our own bank of time".  We control the minutes we have each and every day.  And we can either use them for success or waste them.  Spend them wisely or foolishly.  Just like money.  But I would argue that time is much more valuable than money.  So, I put together some tips on better time management sprinkled with my own experiences thorughout my career.  Hope they help and you enjoy.  God Bless.  

God works in mysterious ways.  We've all heard it.  We all know it.  And when it's good "works" we love it.  But, there is also a side that is not so fun.  The side when you are at your wits end, down in a valley and too tired to go on that God can "work" in your life and you don't even realize it.  Or, accept the results as you are in a fog of pain. Well, as I try to be was honest and forthecoming as I can in the Podcast, this episode might be going a little too far.  You are definately going to see another side of my life that social media rarely displays.  A vulnerable, hurting and non traditional side of me that God, in his intimate and immense wisdom, pummeled out of me recently so that I could grow.  Give In.  Trust.  My journey is just one small story, but one that I hope brings healing or possibly a path for others to try.  God always has a why.  A way.  A how.  We just typically are the last to figure it out.  Here is my story.   

If you know anything about me, when I am in on something, I am in 100%.  All or Nothing!!  Ride or Die!!!  But is that really healthy?  Is that really sustainable? According to today's culture, the answer is absolutely yes.  You're not a "man" if you don't go all in.  You're not truly committed unless you give it your all. Well, I have come to find out that it's not really a healthy or in the end, productive way of life.  But....Jesus has his own opinion about the All or Nothing proposition and this episode explores that.  I hope you enjoy!

When the going gets tough, do you get going?  Or do you retreat and head in another direction.  Well, you wouldn't be the first one to tuck tail and run.  But, what if you didn't.  What if you stood firm and tried to make your way through it.  And.....what it you made it.  How would that boost your confidence for future trials.  Or, what it you failed?  What did you really lose?  Time.  Money.  Pride.  Well, maybe you learned something that next time you can use to be even more successful.  I took a big step this year and did something I never thought possible.  Here is how it is going so far.  Thanks and hope you enjoy.  

One of the biggest things in life to conquer is Fear.  It will keep you from attempting something to stopping you in your tracks if you do.  Fear is what is mostly behind you not taking action.  Not pursuing dreams.  Not living life to it's fullest.  All of us have fears.  But, with a few tips, tricks and advice, we can try and put most fears behind us.  Even all of them to a degree, with a little help from God.  Hope you enjoy this episode on FEAR.  

Not sure if anyone noticed, but we went through a pandemic.  And in doing so we quickly realized that our conventional thought and wisdom about our friends, family,  faith, work and government changed overnight.  Family feuds.  Friends, unfriended each other.  Faith grew and waned.  Work stopped. And our government flip flopped and flopped some more.  What did it teach you about yourself or the world? How did this time in history change your behavior?  How did it change your opinions?  How did it change your actions?  Or did it?  We dive into that on this 3rd Episode of Nobody's Fault But Mine.   Hope you enjoy.

A little longer episode this time but we dive into how Music and Technology has influenced all of our lives over the past 30 years.  The advancements made in Technology cannot be overstated.  Huge.  And music, always has had such an impact on cultures, emotions and life.  In fact, most of you have a song that instantly brings you back to a moment in time with good memories.  Songs, artists or genres of music have such a solid place in our lives, and I am the same.  This episode explores all of that and helps explain in a little more detail why this podcast has come to exist in the first place. Thank you and I hope you enjoy.
