Have you taken the time to define what success looks like? Do you have the courage to even say what you want? or go after what you want? If you haven’t, that might be why you’re struggling with getting the results you want.
Faith = Hope + Evidence (unseen) Having faith means believing in God’s vision and trusting that his plan will land you where you need to be. Anchor your hope in God’s Faith.
Hope is an indicator that you need to move past your current situation. Hope is the evidence of that which you cannot see. Faith that you can get past whatever disappointment you’re facing and experience something better for your growth.
You need to put yourself out there! You may be great and have a lot of Value but if you’re not being seen, you can’t take advantage of that. Make connections, make yourself visible and your chances of success grow exponentially.
Creativity is not in short supply, we’ve just been around a long time. Things are almost always remakes and remixes of something else, but that doesn’t mean that creativity is dead or in danger. We’ve seen most things, borrow from your surroundings, from what you watch and use those influences to make something brand new and exciting. Learn from Picasso and be a great artist.
The best way to simplify is just to start with the number 0. Steve Jobs and his designers is one of the best examples of how keeping it simple can mean HUGE success. We tend to overcomplicate things and it’s real easy to get incredibly overwhelmed, if you’re able to take a breath and just break things down to their simplest components. Life will be a lot easier and you’ll be able to focus on what you need to do to be successful. Scripture Referenced: Matthew 22: 34-40...

Today we have our very first guest on the new show. His name is Caleb McCleskey. A Journalism major that runs his own podcast about life called The Joker’s Shadow. He gives us some insight on Fake news and accountability. Check out his podcast here:
Pride will isolate you and prevent you from reaching your goals. Foster a sense of humility that will allow you to absorb the necessary information you need to either shift your perspective or elevate your current self to the next step is. Otherwise your pride will kill most opportunities than it’ll give you.
By being Prideful, you’re essentially saying “I know more than God” and it is slowly killing your goals and potential. Humility is the true path to growth and to allow God to guide your path instead of taking it up on yourself is how we, as followers of God, can reach the true potential in our lives.
Everyone gets one gift. There’s no reason for you not to be able to harness that gift into a valuable skillset or even several.
Today we’re going to talk about Polymaths and why they’re important to our culture and the shift that occurs in the presence of polymaths and their abilities. Nikola Tesla, George Washington Carver, Leonardo Davinci… All people who had seemingly endless skills and understanding of the world around them. All of them also people who shifted the world and culture around them. Polymaths are some of the most influential people in our culture and there’s a thing or two we can learn from them....
Hello Everybody! Life Designed is shifting and moving up. Taking it’s steps one at a time. This will be the last Life Refreshed Podcast. Moving forward we will be “Shifts and Ladders”. Thought it was fitting, since in life we’re constantly going through shifts and the ladders those shifts bring. In Today’s episode we’re chatting about the ladders that present in our lives, the fears they can bring and what we can learn from them. Hope to see you next week on Shifts and Ladders....
There are a lot of shifts happening in our daily lives at any given time, but have you ever taken the time to think about why those shifts are happening? Whether it’s cultural, personal or spiritual? Let’s talk about Shifts and the reason they happen in our lives.
The pursuit of more could be costing you greatness. We love more stuff & everything else that comes with the word “More” but intentionality suffers as a result of it. Chances are we need to to dial it back and be more careful and purposeful in what we pursue. The Essentials. Book referenced: Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of less....
Ultimately, there’s only one thing that dictates whether the mighty, a person or company, fall from the top of their grace. Hubris. A person or business that carries a sense of hubris about their past will eventually fall. They think that they can’t do wrong because they are comfortable and they think that things will always work out. What they fail to realize is that eventually, the past is no longer good enough and they either have to adapt or go extinct. Let go of your hubris and learn to cha...
Comparison is such an insidious thing. It can take genuinely well deserved compliments and achievements and turn them into throwaway moments that you never really get to enjoy. Life is about celebrating the person God designed you to be, he made you and he made you well. Enjoy that and don’t let it infect your life or take your calling away from you.
Let’s be honest, we do a lot of talking to make ourselves feel better, and in that talking we stop focusing on the thing that matters most. Actually doing the work. Let’s stop lying to ourselves and Do the work. Scripture referenced: – Proverbs 6:6 – Proverbs 24
There’s a reason that faith is often compared to a seed of mustard. They’re almost unimaginable tiny. 2mm, actually. but they grow into huge, huge trees. Faith is incredibly potent. So is your potential to better yourself and grow. Let your faith germinate and spread into the people around you so that it enhances the potential inside of you. Even if it is as small as a seed of mustard. Scripture referenced: Matthew 17:14...

We’re back again exploring the idea of Value Exchange in our relationships. Are you going to continue putting yourself at a discount or are you raising your prices to what you’re actually worth? a huge amount of people are constantly selling themselves short as a result of not wanting to increase their worth in fear of losing people that often don’t value them enough. Move on to people that are willing to exchange with the actual value both you and them are worth. Scripture Referenced: Proverbs ...
You exchange based on what it is you value. Never put yourself on sale because you think people won't value you. Value doesn't come from an fixed scale, some people will value you as a person way more than others and Vice Versa. Make sure you don't Trade in your relationship with God for other less valuable relationships in your life. It's important for us to be uncomfortable accepting that value is abstract and you won't be equally valuable as a person to everybody. Find the people that believe...

When you measure twice and cut once, you must be prepared to make the cut only once. Take the time to prepare and sharpen your axe before chopping down whatever it is you're struggling with. "Give me six hours to chop down a tree, I'll spend the first four sharpening the axe" - Abraham Lincoln. Scripture Referenced Ecclesiastes 10:10...
With the New Years, comes the New Year Resolutions. In theory these are great, but there's a catch to them. You have to plan out how you want to achieve those resolutions. A lot of people don't put intentionality on how they will be achieving their goals and without that intentionality, the whole thing kind of falls apart. You can't just say you want to do or be something, you have to put in the work and pay the cost of acquiring that thing or version of yourself. That's why we measure twice and...
