i like this saying or story or parable, or whatever you want to call it.
if your deal is art, work your booty off. if your deal is sales, work your ass off. if your bag is ______ go and do it. it’s worship.

wedding days and puke stains
so I always see wedding pics posted to FB.
so I always cringe when I see wedding pics posted to FB.
so I feel like people think life just got a notch better
so i feel like i can’t stand how much people spend or care what things look like or that 9 months of planning went in to it
so i feel
i understand i have some hangups but the traditional american wedding as it now stands makes me...
lets be completely honest
i like god because he makes me think and feel better.
more dynamic, smarter, chill, able to enjoy, etc

some simple business stats
i hang around lots of smart people for work, especially in the area of financials - thought i would share a few simple ones that I find interesting.
-naturally you lose 10% of your recurring business each year (hence u have to find new business). so if you want to grow business by 10% you will need to grow NEW business by 20%
-‘service’ businesses should shoot for around 20% admin...
what are we?
the questions surmount, ever increasing, while answers to those questions seem far in between.
i am glad they are good answers.
the morning after
………after i teach/preach i have a hard time. it has always been this way.
temptation to; fall, get pompous, be frustrated, never teach again, to want to teach for personal gain, etc - the list goes on.
i have to fight it. ‘eat my own dog food’ as the saying goes. i must rely not on my faith account but that of Christ’s.
the morning after - after being the key...

"that was sooo last year" - theory u
I am excited about a new read, i have to wait 2 weeks before i can really dig in unfortunately.The book is around the topic of social technology and idea of presencing. before reading my best guess is that these people just ‘do’ and don’t necessarily ask the question of relevance bc they are tapped into the social fabric currently being woven all around them.
discussing anyone...
Weirdo's And Puberty
So….I should have guessed that at the opening night of batman it would be an experience. To the right drunk weird trechy types and all around are pubescent teens who’s parents must be smoking to let them out this late. Posted with LifeCast

hurry the F up
anyone who knows me unfortunately knows that i do have a struggle with patience. I find it like ‘nails on a chalkboard’ when you don’t get something that i think i get. whether that’s how to do a certain something on the computer or the logic behind dish washer organization.
i feel as if either the awareness of such lack of patience has increased or my lack of patience has...

Xcentric.com article - thought i would share some...
So…..why a new website? I can boil it down to 3 words; vision, tool, and appeal. Okay four words - dollars. Vision While we thought our old website sufficed for an online brochure, we felt at the same time that it did not communicate what we hold dear - how we helpCPAs . That’s our focus, that’s our passion. Why? We are not always sure to be honest, perhaps other verticals would...
live through the day
i have the ability to rehash some things from yesterday. I am also able to plan a few things for tomorrow.
tomorrow will I want to rehash yesterday in which I spent the whole day planning for tomorrow and rehashing yesterday?
i have buried treasure all around me right now. not sure if I would sell my anxiety’s in order to take hold of it.

freakin radiohead
radiohead i must say takes me to a ‘contemplative place’ -
in this place I find a;
-fascination with koosh balls and the brilliance behind them -love for strange farm animals and the hills they lurk on -want to read more of the bible -desire to paint even though i suck at it (pretty good at 5 finger turkeys though)
most worship albums take me to an ‘interesting place’ as...
frivolous words
i write more for work these days and I have been made aware of all the frivolous words i tend to type and use in conversation. perhaps the most alarming of these words that I use too often is ‘just’…..
I ‘just’ wanted to send an email to check in regarding blah blah blah
or
God I ‘just’ want you to xyz me!
Unless using the word in context of Justice I...

your brain on indian food
i am convinced i like Indian food more than i like air or water or sleep. however i am also grudgingly convinced it makes me absolutely dumb. i shall only eat it on Saturdays, fore this is the day Americans don’t think. also the day, by and large, we resort to consumtion because we can’t think of what else to do with our time.

lesbians, alcholics, and divorcees - oh and an...
there are 3 groups of people on each side of me (yes, i have three sides). all of which are very good conversations and I am amazed on the ?’s that are being asked around me. i live by an unsually cool Starbucks I might say. All types of people even though we are in a wealthy white suburb of Atlanta.
to the right: x-husband, X-wife, their 2 kids. both have re-married and both have...
