3 Phases for Achieving Vision - A Radical Vision

The post below was originally from December 4, 2011. My dad's birthday. It's always been a holiday and it always will be. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Enjoy! For the past nine months I've walked into and in front of people almost every day. If you've been on my right side you've been ignored, unnoticed and sometimes even gotten the inadvertent right hand slap. [ 462 more words ]

Are you kidding me? I laughed at him? You can't be serious. I'm having a lot of success in the position that I've only held for 4 months. This doesn't make any sense. "I'm sorry, but this is what I've been told. This isn't what I thought my job would be". This is a conversation that nobody ever wants to have. [ 217 more words ]

This afternoon I'm taking a trip. I'm going to a place where I can disconnect and be who I am. It's a place like none other. It's a place where time stands still. It's a place where most people can't go. Many people don't even want to go. It's a place that brings me back to who I am and where I'm from. [ 114 more words ]

Back when I was a kid in high school we had a “CC” team that ran through the cornfields of Northwest Ohio. It wasn’t a large team, but it brought with it a great sense of belonging and diversity. I always thought that the “CC” stood for Cross County. For some reason, in the past few years there have been quite of few “XC” teams popping up. [ 265 more words ]

There. I said it. One of the things that I used to love is gone. Just keepin in real. I bought a car in February of 2011 that had 5,000 miles on it. On March 3rd, less than a month later, I was blinded by one of two Cavernous Malformations in my brain stem. From that point, until mid-October of that same year, Connie drove my new car to get me where I needed to be. [ 361 more words ]

This is a tough subject for me to write about. No-one can really imagine what I see, but I'd like to give you an idea. The idea is that you'll have an appreciation. Maybe someday this will help somebody. I often remind people that I only have one eye. Well, that's not entirely true. I actually have two eyes. One that I use and another that I keep under covers.

These last few days I've had my face in my phone more than normal. I've been trying to read as much as I can. Why? Well, I know that the more I read the easier it will be for me to write. Why do I need to write? Why can't I just be a dad, a husband, a coworker, a salesman, a customer, a christian? [ 308 more words ]

Over the past few days Connie and I have been on a college movement crusade. First, we took our daughter to Bowling Green to begin her first year as a college student. She's a bright and beautiful girl who fills her dad with pride. I still remember the day that we found out about her heart condition. This condition would cause her to have heart surgery when she was only four months old. [ 253 more words ]

Self limiting beliefs (you know, those things that creep into our "self-conscious" where we sabotage our self image and credibility) are bad enough, but THEN you have other people that add to those doubts. It goes something like this. I'll tell people that I'm writing a book and beginning a speaking career and here are some of the responses that I've gotten. [ 326 more words ]

What's it like when you know that you have to get out of bed, but don't want to? What's it like when you want to stay home, but have to go to work? What's it like when you've given a free pass, but don't want to take it? What's it like when someone has offered you a ride, because they know that you could probably use it? [ 234 more words. ]
