Crushing It! by Gary V Chapter 1

The Path is All Yours
Chapter 1

 You must be smart and strategic about how you use your content.
First create valuable content that will grow your influence.
Q: Are you creating valuable content that is strategically used?

 Think of yourself as tomorrow’s newest star.
Q: How do you think about yourself?

 It’s a matter of survival to think beyond your current successes and constantly look for ways to create new ones so that you are never limited to any one platform or even one topic. Do this by creating a personal brand so powerful it transcends even your passion!
Q: How are you forward looking when it comes to constantly creating new successes?
(When it comes to social media) you are in complete control of how the world sees you, how often, and in what context.
Remember: in complete control. Use this privilege to the max for your success!

(Some who have made it) said that the experiences and skills they gained in their former jobs – even the ones they hated – were essential to helping them become the entrepreneurs they are today.
Q: What experiences and skills have I gained from my former jobs – even the ones I hated – that are essential to helping me become successful?

You’re not crushing it because you haven’t fully committed to making the leap yet. You’re making excuses. (To crush it) will require big risks. It will take all your mental capacity, your time and your leisure.
No more excuses. Bite the bullet and give it your all continually.

The principles are universal, the path is all yours. Stories of people’s successes are examples, not commands.

QUESTIONS OLDER CHRISTIANS HAVE BUT ARE AFRAID TO ASK ALOUD

QUESTIONS OLDER CHRISTIANS HAVE BUT ARE AFRAID TO ASK ALOUD Old age presents a unique set of challenges, and for Christians, these can intersect with their faith in profound ways. Here are five common questions or struggles Christians may face in their later years: Why does God allow suffering and decline? As bodies weaken, illnesses become more frequent, and loved ones pass away, Christians may grapple with the problem of evil and suffering. They might question why a loving and all-powerful God permits such physical and emotional pain, leading to doubts about His goodness, presence, or even existence. This can be especially difficult for those who have lived a life of faith and expected a more peaceful or less challenging end. What is my purpose now? Retirement, loss of independence, and the inability to participate in activities they once enjoyed can lead to a profound sense of loss of purpose. Christians who have been activ...

The Dream Jacket

New Zealand was cold but he knew just what he needed to keep him warm . . . and to bring him closer to realizing his dream. A leather jacket. He may have told me how and where he got the jacket but I can't remember. All I knew he wore it a lot while studying in New Zealand where he dreamt of wearing it when he rode his big bike. His jacket was part of his dream - to study overseas, to ride big bikes, to be successful - and he treasured it. He eventually returned home and as the years passed, put on weight and no longer could wear the jacket. Furthermore it was too hot and heavy for the humid Malaysian weather but he kept it. A treasure. A memento. A link to a special time in history. But the day came when, out of his generous heart and love for his brother, he gifted the jacket to his brother who was going to Melbourne for a much needed rest. The jacket was received with joy and it served the brother well by keeping him warm and more than that, my continuing its role as memory ...

Am I A Beggar, Begging?

I believe there are people out there who want to help and are able to help, so I share needs, both personal and church/ministry related. I also believe what James said in his letter, "You do not have because you do not ASK." So it was a surprise to me to be (recently) labelled a beggar and to have my sharing of needs and requesting for assistance and donations described as begging. My initial response was, "What? Me a beggar, begging? I began to wonder when did asking become begging and is there a difference between asking and begging. So I turned to Google and typed in 'difference between asking and begging', and lo, to my surprise, it was an often asked question! The articles, forums and comments listed were helpful and most importantly, eye opening, especially the dictionary definitions. It says that if I ask someone or ask for something earnestly and/or humbly, thats begging. Then I have been begging (oh no!). It also says that if I ask especially f...
