Year 3

January 17, 2010

I wrote my first true blog 2-years ago. Here it is; Keep reading to my signature because today’s thoughts come after the post from two years ago. 

Making a Difference

Most of my life I have wanted to make a difference in the world. I want my life to count, Author Mark Batterson said in his book
“In A Pit With A Lion On A Snowy Day” that “a dream becomes a reality one opportunity at a time.”  This blog is an opportunity for me to make a difference in many lives. I hope to share insights from my life and my 30 year banking career that will be meaningful to you. I want this blog to help you build a better life.

So, spend forward now to To January 17, 2011. This past Sunday, I celebrated my 59th birthday. I still want my life to count. I want to do things that matter, that make a difference. I was created to help people and I love doing it. I enjoy helping others succeed. It is how God made me. I am a coach, a mentor, an encourager, a connector, a change agent all rolled into one. Sure, I have other skills and abilities but most of my life I have just wanted to help someone else. So, I bare my soul most days by writing this article. I feel a lot like what Erwin McManus once said,

“We are all haunted with the fear of living lives of insignificance and we all hear the voice telling us we can live the dream. Somehow we all know that to play it safe is to lose the game.”

— Erwin McManus
