Elevate Life

  • When you summon the courage to do what others won’t, you will have in life what others don’t. 
  • We ask for what we wish; we seek for what we miss; we knock for what has shut us out.
  • Persistence is the bridge over failure that leads to success, because you never fail until you stop trying. You can persist when you know the middle is not the end.
  • Each of you must examine your own actions. Then you can be proud of your own accomplishments without comparing yourself to others.
  • A Warrior is measured by his accomplishments! Man can acquire knowledge and skill, but it doesn’t guarantee accomplishment. A Warrior is measured by his character! Character is who you are when nobody is around. A Warrior is measured by his companions! Tell me who you hang with and I will tell you who you are. A Warrior is measured by his commitments! A Warrior is measured by his concerns! You know a man by what keeps him up at night.
  • A Mighty Man is one who strengthens himself and in the process leads others to do the same.  A mighty man is obedient to the unenforceable, is willing to do whatever it takes, is loyal, courageous, and embraces resistance.
  • Spirit seeks God, Soul thinks faith, Body stands firm.
  • You do nobody a favor by playing small. Have great strength in the midst of danger.
  • Everything looks like failure in the middle. Get in the boat, deal with the middle, and don’t be distracted by the storm.
  • In the middle of anything will be a storm.
  • Dream big, even when people make you feel small.
  • Never allow pits to make you pitiful. Always be willing to learn from your lowest points.
  • I will add more value than anyone could pay, because I am worth more than anyone could pay.
  • Make everywhere you go better, because you went there.
  • Be the best you, in the worst of situations (and when the worst has been displayed by others).
  • What needs to happen needs to happen immediately. Don’t put off until tomorrow what should have been done last year.
  • The most important decision that you made yesterday, that you are making today, and that you will make tomorrow is what matters most to you
  • Face your fears and accomplish something important!
  • Your attitude is the only thing you truly own and is either the best part of you or the worst part of you.
  • It’s not what happens to you that matters most, but what happens in you. What happens in you will ultimately determine what happens through you.
  • Patience: to be long of spirit, not losing heat; to persevere with bravery, bearing the hurts and offences of others.
  • Forgive yourself, forgive others, and refuse offence.
  • When you are valued more for how you think rather than what you do, you will be paid more for what you do.
  • Energy producers are people who speak blessing over people’s lives and encourage them.
  • The law of first things is God is first in all things.
  • Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear- not absence of fear.
  • Courage is being scared to death, but saddling up anyway.
  • Begin with an end in mind; act as if…
  • It is easier to act your way into a feeling than feel your way into an action.
  • Fear is faith too…
  • Think like God: What am I creating? Who am I loving (the way they need to be loved)? How am I showing honor?
  • God-like is to be fruitful, multiply, replenish, and force discipline.
  • Order your life and follow the pattern.
  • Integrity is the glue that holds our way of life together. We must constantly strive to keep our integrity intact. When wealth is lost, nothing is lost; when health is lost, something is lost, when character is lost, all is lost.
  • Integrity breeds confidence, leads to true riches, and leaves a blessed legacy.
  • Don’t allow the good to be robber of the best.
