My Mission is My Passion

Image
Legacy Friwends at Pattern Realm This week I podcasted a feature show called Faith Live now where Pastor Kary Kesee (who I affectionately call Gary K) and his wife Drenda interview Dr. Delatorro McNeal II’ on his book Caught between a Dream and a Job. I have read that book to some detail and I have my unique perspective. What would you do if you knew you coulldn’t fail? If your debts were paid with your bills what would you do? What’s your passion? What’s your PAss-I-ON. What is it that God gives you in life thaat you can pass you on to impact others? A common teaching of the Landmark Forum (I will paraphrase the title of the concept in my own words “There is no is, reality.” In other words we cannot use the catchword phrase “”It is what it is with a defeatist attitude that is destructive to the soul. Instead, kllet God in His Word provide you the meaning of things to tap into success. Another one we need to overcome is excuses. Fear doesn’t need to be a ...

Covenant Weekly Reset

Image
Legacy Pattern Friends at Pattern Realm, This topic has been strong on my mind for 2 weeks now, and I have been thinking of ways to incorporate it in my teaching. Billionaires like Bill Marriott and Truitt Caffy have one thing in common. They have a weekly reset to enter the house of God, partake of sacrament and renew their covenants. Honestly, any covenant entrepreneur can work six days a week giving them all they got. But truth is we all need one day to focus solely on our relationship with the Lord, our family, and to recconfigure our goals according to the map of faith and family. Few people in business are willing to take that break. They call covenant entrepreneurs like me crazy for believing that. They say “Sunday is church, but after thaat real life.” I used to believe that until July 8, 2001 when I entered the covenant waters of baptism and committed to a covenant relationship with Jesus Christ. Many people have a problem with that dynamic,...

Real Christiann 10X Life

Image
Friends at Pattern Realm, Funny what cravings and righteous desires a good Christian heart can have? But are we keeping in alignment of those with the desires of Christ. You inow secretly I hope for a best friend to invite me to do something amazing, stunning and exciting for my coaching business. But the fact is I received an invitation from my real best friend, Christ. I just didn’t know it. This morning I was watching a snippet from Faith Driven Entrepreneurs, and it occurred to me that my very best friend from childhood, Christ invites me to live the 10X Christian life in business and personal life. Exciting! What humans can’t fulfill in us, Christ steps in and takes the reigns. He invites us to live quietly and testify loudly. For 2 years I have longed to be a Toastmasters officer with some public recognition, only to lose. But then hearing what I heard through Faith Driven Entrepreneurs I’ve learned that I must disappear to be seen. You may say, “J...

Para Mi Corazon, Emotional Intellligence and Authenticity.

Image
Friends at Pattern Realm, Pattern Realm, perhaps you look at the news and feel the whole world’s gone crazy. There’s economic and political upheaval even in your own country, and the slaughter of unborn innocents. Not to mention those with disabilities in rural areas facing logistical problems in living independantly. Honestly, there are days I lie in bed and pray, crying out to Heavenly Father feeling like I want to go Home. Days I just feel likke giving up Because in a world where dreamers and thought leaders are craving fellowship and finding none the sting of that hurts living on. Catastrophizing and self doubt are the tools of fear that are enemies of our success. I know them all to well suffering from bipollar disorder PTSD and imposter syndrone. But then I think about a Sunday discussion a few weeks ago at church when my bishop opened up a discussion about the founding documents of America. More particularly what stirs me is talking about what the p...

Lessons Fro The Blind

Image
Dear Friends at Pattern Realm, This blog tells stories of self empowerment in the blindness c ommunity. Blind people for too long have been surrounded by stigma and misconception. But yesterday I sat down with my good friend and fellow Toastmaster Mike to talk about lessons both of have learned as men who happen to be blind. We believe in self advocacy and empowerment. 3 days ago in Sunday School a teacher with caution asked me "I know that you are blind, but not offending you, I notice you can see to read, how is that." I calmly explained to him that there was no offense taken. Blindness is just a simple physical characteristic that doesn't define us. I could've patterned my life life after Theodore Roosevelt, but I had people who saw a better path for mine. No one owes us equality. With alternative techniques the blind can function in society on terms of full equality. Leaders like George Card, Jacobus Tenbrook Kenneth Jern...

Covenant Business Leadership Without Selling Out

Image
Legacy Patterns at Pattern Realm Believe it’s absolutely, you could climb the corporate ladder nd be a flashy bigshot, speak to corporations living a flashy lifestyle. But in the end is it really worth it. Jesus spoke an ancient truth in Matthew 8;36. You find you gain the whole world and wake up and lose your soul, when i started writing back in 2015 i prayed to God that he bring me higher, but keep me humble. 9 years later, he sent me Blanca to be my eternal companion. Brothers and sisters members of Legacy Patterns i tell you this, mi Princessa wil never let me sell out my spiritual birthright for a pile of cash with a busted life. It’s ok to have wealth, but it is not ok to sell out to something that compromises your core values. Now i know some people think i am being very harsh. But i used to want to be rich period, Just saw this ad of a speaker guru offering this flashy package to help thought leaders. I don’t buy it, because it says this “Pay me money,...

White Shirt Anthology

Image
Dear Pattern Realm, Imagine this, you are speaking at a major convention where tickets are sold out. People are cheering your name. But like me you aren’t a sellout. I believe in this second act of our eternal existence we can find meaning or be a sellout to the story. Severing those ties for a covenant business is a better path. “Pure religion and undefiled is this, to visit the homes of the fatherless and the widows and to keep oneself unspotted from the world.” (James 1;27. That means don’t sell out to the Machine, but to the Hidden Council of God in Jesus Christ. My podcast may be in Apple Podcast, but the way I see it I’m willing to be a professional not to sell out to a corrupt system, but with the Heavenly Council. That’s where I am. White shirts must be kept clean. You know I’ve been married to my eternal companion for a year and a half I fight for my marriage as a Priesthood man when. All her life she’s had men be rough with her or want one thing, I don...
