Achieve your destiny and be successful at any level by staying rooted in a strong work ethic, determination, and integrity.

My path took me in a business direction, but it was still the work ethics and values of my blue collar roots that helped me reach top executive levels. My Dad was a man of few words, but as I navigated through my career I could always find the answers I needed in the subtle thin ...

You don't drown from falling …

What started with a story about sharing a sandwich with Dads old coon hound has grown into something I could have never even imagined in four years: 8,842,000 plays on 6 Continents, in 62 Countries/Territories, and 1,040 Cities. A book and a series of five more in production. This little podcast has brought me rewards far beyond any business deal I…

Talk is cheap and easy. We say I love you, but do we show it? When we know someone in need we say we will pray for them, but maybe God's response to us is why are you not helping them? "Action speaks louder than words but not nearly as often" Mark TwainLewis Taulbee Jr

We say "seeing is believing", but God says "BELIEVING is seeing". He wants us to live in faith, but that can be hard sometimes. Especially when the dark clouds move in. It's in the middle of the storm when holding on to faith is the most difficult. When it seems like all hope is gone and our prayers have gone unheard. This is when we need to stand …

We all seek advancing technology yet we also all share a yearning for a simpler life. Technology can help us be more efficient and effective, but it can also rob us from inner peace at the same time. It is important to disconnect sometimes and enjoy the simplicities of life. It's simple to be happy, but it is becoming more and more difficult to be …

There is no smaller package than a man wrapped up in himself. We have become a society of self absorbed people. We are quick to complain or criticize others if it disrupts our agenda. However, we don't always know what that person may be going through. We are all in this world together sharing the same struggles, so instead of being quick to point …

They say when we first enter Heaven we will see a replay of our lives. Well there will be a lot of laughing when they roll mine! This is a 100% true story of one of my brilliant ideas gone bad!

Two words that can be arranged to hold opposite meanings. Making Resolutions and setting goals are important, but we must take action on Day One and not One Day.

Life was not designed to give us what we need. It was designed to give us what we deserve. We don’t reap a harvest in the fall because we want it, we reap a harvest in the fall because we plant the seeds in the spring and work diligently to grow it. “We reap what we sow”Lewis Taulbee Jr

Ever have a near death experience? Bet you have and didn't even know it! That's the best kind to have. Think of the sleepless nights, heart palpitations and antacids we avoided.

Have you ever wondered why a dandelion is considered an annoyance to a well kept lawn? They are the brightest spot of a yard, but it doesn't fit in with the million blades of grass so we consider them a nuisance and try to eliminate them everytime they pop up. Many people do the same thing in society and criticize anyone who doesn't fit the mold or…

If you could write a letter to your younger self what would you say? Would you offer caution and give directions for detours around the tough times? I would not because it is those challenging times that made us who we are and built our character.

Most people tiptoe through life to make it safely to death. The sad reality is that they will never reach their true destiny or achieve their dreams. Therefore by not taking risks we are risking more. "Only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go." T. S. EliotLewis Taulbee Jr

Many who achieved fame have struggled with maintaining an image that is not their true being at heart. This creates an inner conflict that has led to drug abuse, mental illness, and even death. It's not only the famous. With the inception of social media it is becoming more of an issue. This is a major contributor to the increase in anxiety, depres…

No matter what your beliefs are, none can deny t…

Many people will go to a job that they don't like tomorrow because it's what they did yesterday.

Many people use New Year's Day as a new beginning for improving areas of their life. The sad fact is 43% fail before February, and almost one out of four quit within the first week of setting their New Year’s resolution. Most people quit before the end of January, and only 9% see their resolutions through until succession. So, why do we set these l…

We all have different opinions, thoughts, and ideas of how to get from point A to point B. In the end, the only thing that matters is that we get there. It is okay to be passionate about our perspective, but it is not okay to judge or be critical of those with opposing views. In the words of the great Charlie Brown can’t we all just get along?!!! “…

“If you’re going through hell, keep going,” is a quote attributed to Winston Churchill that has wisdom beyond its short appearance. Recognizing that it might currently feel like hell, but there is a future beyond it, helps us remember that pain is fleeting. It won’t be here forever, but neither will we, so keep going. Unfortunately, many of us exte…

On July 6, 2022 to a tornado ripped through my hometown and left a devastating aftermath in it's wake. It tore apart structures, but it also brought the hearts of a community together.

We all have dreams and they are as unique to us as our fingerprints and DNA. We are born with them in our heart and will die with them.

We are all chasing something in this life, so it might as well be our dreams! …

Life is full of circumstances outside of our control, but how we handle those circumstances is always 100% within our control. We are not affected by what we know or what happens to us, rather we are affected by how we feel about what we know and how we choose to handle it. If we live our life with great expectations that is what we will get. If we…

Growing up I was always confused when I heard the pastor talk about staying humble and striving to be all God created us to be. Seemed to be a contradiction. However, I have learned that staying humble doesn’t mean staying poor, weak, or meek. Actually, it has nothing to do with the amount of success or wealth one achieves, rather it has everything…

The difference between a successful person and others is not a lack of strength, not a lack of knowledge, not a lack of resources, but rather lack of will. We have a growing culture in which a sense of entitlement is being instilled instead of a strong work ethic. We were all created to be productive for one another. Being lazy is not only the key …

Greatness is not a rare magical thing that is only given to a chosen few. Greatness exists in all of us! Unfortunately, we often suppress it because we either don’t recognize it or we allow our environment to convince us that we cannot achieve it. If we seek greatness, it will find us, and we just need to open the door and BE GREAT! “Surround yours…

The essence of life cannot be found in the minutes, hours, or days that we have. We all have a different amount of time and it isn't given to us for consumption, but for contribution. As we look back at our journey, we will not see time, rather only the moments that we made along the way. These are the steppingstones along our path that we leave fo…
