Join the marathon ............

Join the marathon.

Becoming proficient at setting and reaching goals and managing your time doesn’t happen over night. Achieving these things will have a profoundly positive impact on your career and your life, and like most significant accomplishments, takes time. Be patient and cut yourself some slack as you develop these new habits. When you fall short and fail, simply ask yourself what you can learn from it. Transforming your career is a marathon, not a sprint. Approaching it as such will make you more disciplined and focused on long term results and less impulsive and frustrated when things don’t always fall the way you’d like them to. Recommit to “being in it for the long haul.” Keep your eyes on the horizon and that’s where you’ll find your focus as well. - Dave Anderson


Have a Blessed Day Chris!

...... will be expecting the following .........

Dear one term President Obama and future Ex-senators;

I'm planning to move my family and extended family into Mexico because I can no longer afford to pay taxes here and I would like to ask you to assist me. We're planning to simply walk across the border from the U.S. into Mexico, and we'll need your help to make a few arrangements. We plan to skip all the legal stuff like visas, passports, immigration quotas and laws. I'm sure they handle those things the same way you do here. So, would you mind telling your buddy, Pres. Calderon, that I'm on my way over? Please let him know that I will be expecting the following:

1. free medical care for my entire family.
2. English-speaking government bureaucrats for all services I need, whether I use them or not.
3. Please print all Mexican government forms in English.
4. I want my grandkids to be taught Spanish by English-speaking (bi-lingual) teachers.
5. Tell their schools they need to include classes in American culture and history.
6. I want my grandkids to see the American flag on one of the flag poles at their school.
7. Please plan to feed my grandkids at school for both breakfast and lunch.
8. I will need a local Mexican driver???s license so I have easy access to government services.
9. I do plan to get a car and drive in Mexico, but, I don't plan to purchase car insurance, and I probably won't make any special effort to learn local traffic laws.
10. In case one of the Mexican police officers does not get the memo from their president to leave me alone, please be sure that every patrol car has at least one English-speaking officer.
11. I plan to fly the U.S. Flag from my housetop, pt U S. Flag decals on my car, and have a gigantic celebration on July 4th. I do not want any complaints or negative comments from the locals.
12. I would also like to have a good job without paying any taxes, or having any labor or tax laws enforced on any business I may start.
13. Please have the president tell all the Mexican people to be extremely nice and never say critical things about me or my family, or about the strain we place on their economy.
14. I want to receive free food stamps.
15. Naturally, I'll expect free rent subsidies.
16. I???ll need Income tax credits so although I don't pay Mexican Taxes, I'll receive money from the government.
17. Please arrange it so that the Mexican Gov't pays $4,500 to help me buy a new car.
18. Oh yes, I almost forgot, please enroll me for free into the Mexican Social Security program so that I'll get a monthly income in retirement. I know this is an easy request because you already do all these things for all his people who walk over to the U.S. from Mexico. I am sure that President Calderon won't mind returning the favor if you ask him nicely.


Thank you so much for your kind help. You're the man!!!

..........

Dear Lord, I thank You for this day,

I thank You for my being able to see And to hear this morning.

I'm blessed because You are A forgiving God and An understanding God..

You have done so much for me And You keep on blessing me.

Forgive me this day for everything I have done, said or thought That was not pleasing to you.

I ask now for Your forgiveness. Please keep me safe From all danger and harm.

Help me to start this day With a new attitude and plenty of gratitude.

Let me make the best of each and every day To clear my mind so that I can hear from You.

Please broaden my mind That I can accept all things. Let me not whine and whimper Over things I have no control over.

And give me the best response When I'm pushed beyond my limits. I know that when I can't pray, You listen to my heart.

Continue to use me to do Your will.

Continue to bless me that I may be A blessing to others.

Keep me strong that I may help the weak...

Keep me uplifted that I may have Words of encouragement for others.

I pray for those that are lost And can't find their way. I pray for those that are misjudged And misunderstood..

I pray for those who Don't know You intimately. I pray for those that don't believe.

But I thank You that I believe That God changes people and God changes things. I pray for all my sisters and brothers.

For each and every family member In their households.

I pray for peace, love and joy In their homes; that they are out of debt And all their needs are met. I pray that every eye that reads this Knows there is no problem, circumstance, Or situation greater than God.

Every battle is in Your hands for You to fight.

I pray that these words be received Into the hearts of every eye that sees it In Jesus' name.

Amen!
