I'm sure for God, it must be painful to hear us pray for something that was delivered last month but we do not yet see it.

During an "on the street" radio interview last week, a reporter discussed with a couple about their woes following Hurricane Sandy. The couple were understandably upset about…

I get the puzzled look from some people about my working so much. In there eyes maybe I work too much; in my eyes it seems that I could always do more. Sometimes its neighbors who get home at 6pm in the evening notice that I’m working on some stuff still, or writing, or preparing for some product or system launch, and it might…

I’ve missed many opportunities in my life and I’m sure many of us have. The trends seem to arrive quicker that we have a chance to figure out what we just saw.

You can be ahead of the trends if you want to, we all…

I am the oldest, so it was just us three at the time; me, my mom, and my dad. I can catch little glimpses in my memory sometimes sitting in a baby carrier looking up at my mom and dad. I must have been only a few months old at the time and I can only guess that because I’m in a baby carrier looking up…

I think it used to be my job to put out fires. Though I was hired to implement projects, or support certain systems there was always a fire to put out; there was always something that went wrong.

What I figured out later that what was wrong was my perspective; my attitude. What was wrong was my inability to see…

The things we do each day have built upon something that preceded it. Nothing just appears, as it’s all about preparation. You need to always prepare.

Even the thoughts you think are all thoughts you are thinking because you are prepared to. The ideas you get are ideas that you’re prepared to have. You’re…

Recently we have been told the world was going to end May 21st at 6:30pm or something close to that.  Many folks that I know were having fun with the idea of the world ending and were telling me about all the crazy risks they were going to take like max out their credit cards and have a party to end all party's and they were going to do this or that.  Some of the ideas can't be discussed here.  Of course here we are May 23rd and the world continues to turn.  As a person of Christian faith and… Continue

Faith without preparation is not the best use of anyone’s time.

Roger Staubach said that “spectacular achievements come from unspectacular preparation”.

While faith is the tipping point that separates the champions from the contenders, when you take the time to fully prepare yourself, not just spiritually, but also emotionally, mentally, and physically, you

are at the peak of readiness and can be used by God in the fullest way

What is it for a man to give a life to someone, when he has none to give? Sometimes, we find ourselves wanting to serve so much that we end up biting off way more than we can chew. Usually it’s the result of outside influences or what is subliminally expected of us through the social norm to do things beyond our current grasps; and as a future result we end up doing nothing.…

Readiness is the key that turns the lock of opportunity. -jb

Can you remember the last time you traveled? Before you left, there were certain things you needed to do to prepare yourself for a successful journey.

If you are believing God to take you to a new destination, wouldn't the same concept of preparation and readiness be true here?

Sometimes people approach this concept backward. They say things like, "God show me where you want me to go ..." or "God please open…

“I just want a job” or “I’ll take anything” are comments I hear very often as I am working with clients. I also heard this from almost every job seeker I spoke with at a recent job fair I helped out with. Although many job seekers feel this way it is vital not to say or project this feeling to contacts, networking acquaintances, recruiters and most of all during an… Continue

Reposted from The ResumeWonders Blog. With the current economic conditions, most companies are looking for ways to cut corners and save money. One way companies are saving money is by how and where interviews are conducted. For many companies that are looking at candidates outside the local area, the interview process can be an expense one.



In the past would have had to bring candidates to their location for interviews which mean covering… Continue
