Gratitude changes our perspective.

It's easy to keep looking ahead - to the next goal, the next opportunity, or the next thing we want to accomplish. But Thanksgiving gives us a chance to slow down and recognize what we already have.

I'm grateful for my wife and for my family. For the friends who have walked alongside me. For the people who have invested in my life. I'm grateful for the chance to keep learning, growing, serving, and making a difference in this world. And most of all, I'm grateful to God for the people and experiences that continue to shape my life.

Gratitude has a way of changing our perspective.

Before you rush into what's next, take a moment to appreciate what's already here.

What's one thing you're especially grateful for this Thanksgiving?

Are you giving your most important relationships your best - or just what's left?

It's easy to give our best energy to work, goals, and everything we're trying to accomplish. But the relationships that matter most shouldn't get whatever is left over.

For me, one of the greatest investments I can make is in my marriage to Debbie. After 42 years together, I've learned that a strong marriage doesn't happen by accident. It takes time, attention, patience, forgiveness, laughter, and choosing each other again and again.

Leadership isn't just about how we lead at work. It's also how we love, serve, and show up for the people waiting for us at home.

What are you doing with what you've been given?

We often think about stewardship in terms of money. But I believe it goes much deeper than that.

What are you doing with your time?
Your abilities?
Your relationships?
Your opportunities?
Your resources?

We don't all start with the same things, but we all have something we've been entrusted with.

The question isn't simply, "How much do I have?"
It's "What am I doing with what I have?"

For me, good stewardship means using what I've been given in a way that creates value, serves others, and makes a difference.

What's one thing you've been given that you want to steward better?

What are your non-negotiable values?

It's one thing to know what you value. It's another thing to know what you are not willing to compromise.

For me, those values include faith, family, generosity, compassion, connection, humility, and intentional living.

When you know what you stand for, it becomes easier to know what to say yes to - and what to say no to.

Take a minute to watch my thoughts and then ask yourself:
What are the values you refuse to compromise?

Who's in your circle?

The people we surround ourselves with have a way of shaping how we think, how we lead, and who we become.

For me, John C. Maxwell has been one of those people. Through his books, teaching, and personal influence, John has challenged me to keep learning, keep growing, and keep investing in others.

Your circle doesn't have to be large. It just needs to be intentional.

Who is someone in your circle who challenges you to become better?

A microphone gives you a platform, but a platform is only valuable if you're using it to make a difference.

One of the things I value most about what I get to do is invest in people - whether I'm speaking to business leaders, training teams, teaching students, or simply sitting down with someone who needs encouragement and perspective.

But leadership isn't just about what we accomplish, it's about who we help along the way.

Who has invested in you and helped shape the person you've become??

Your values have probably been leaving fingerprints all over your life - you just have to look for the pattern.

Look at the things you consistently make time for, the people you invest in, and what keeps drawing your attention. Look at your schedule and what your prioritizing.

What patterns keep showing up?

Sometimes the clearest clues to what we value aren't found in one big moment, but in the things we repeatedly choose.

Look back. Notice the pattern. What is your life telling you about what you value?

“What did you mean by that?”

Sometimes, those five words can make all the difference in a conversation.

Especially when the conversation is difficult, important, or touches on something sensitive.

One of the greatest gifts we can give another person is to truly hear and understand them—not just at the surface level, but at a deeper level.

Whether it's with your spouse, family, coworkers, friends, or business associates, stronger relationships are built when we're willing to ask good questions and genuinely listen to the answers.

Don't just stay at the surface.

Ask the next question.
Listen more deeply.
Seek to understand where they're coming from.

Because sometimes, the greatest gift you can give someone is simply letting them know:

“I want to understand you.”

💬 Who in your life could you better understand right now—and what question could you ask to go deeper?

Sometimes, what frustrates you most can reveal what you value most.

Pay attention to the things that consistently bother you. Your frustrations may be pointing to something deeper.

For example:

• If dishonesty frustrates you, you may highly value integrity.

• If seeing potential wasted frustrates you, you may value growth and purpose.

• If unfairness bothers you, you may value justice and equality.

• If relationships are neglected, you may deeply value connection and commitment.

The things that frustrate us aren't always just annoyances.

Sometimes, they're clues.

What frustrates you—and what might that reveal about what you value?

Some of the hardest decisions in life aren't between something good and something bad.

They're between two good things.

When you're forced to choose, what guides your decision?

Your answer may reveal more about your values than you realize.

Take a look back at some of the hardest decisions you've made. What mattered most to you in those moments?

Your values are often revealed by what you're willing to choose—and what you're willing to let go of.
