Top Highlights
“Displaying discipline and self-control in one area shores it up in others; conversely, neglecting discipline and self-control in any major area makes it all the more difficult to emphasize it in others.” (source)
“Here it is: a home for everything, and like goes with like.” (source)
“Productivity is effectively stewarding your gifts, talents, time, energy, and enthusiasm for the good of others and the glory of God. This means you are responsible to take all you have and direct it to this one great goal. You are responsible before God to excel in productivity.” (source)
“As you study the sluggard throughout Proverbs you will see that he is a man who refuses to begin new ventures, a man who will not finish what he has begun, a man who will not face reality and, through it all, a man who is restless, helpless, and useless. His life is chaotic because his soul is chaotic. He cares little for God, so he cares little for those things that honor and glorify God—things like hard work and doing good for others.” (source)
“I have needed to learn the slow ‘yes’ and the quick ‘no.’7” (source)
