Love…

Love.

Love God, yourself, and people.

Love your work and Love your team.

Love the pursuit and passion of following your dream.

Love the falling and the failing.

Love recovering and the healing.

Love the breaking and the building.

Love the storms and savor the smooth sailing.

Love seasons and the changes.

Love what is not common and makes no sense.

Love God, love people, and remove your fence.

This, friends, is the only poem I’ve ever published. It’s on page 269 near the end of the 12 Essentials of Personal Excellence playbook. It’s there to remind you and me of the incredible power of love. Never underestimate this fuel. Look up. Fill up. Get up. Never, ever give up. Instead, give it up. Paradoxically, your cup will overflow. Damn.

“If you asked twenty good men today what they thought the highest of virtues, nineteen of them would reply, unselfishness. But if you asked almost any of the great Christians of old he would have replied, Love.” C.S. Lewis

Live hard. Love ❤️ harder. Much harder…
