Human beings have used their incredible abilities to develop a staggering array of limiting beliefs, justifications and excuses for every occasion. What a waste!
I thought they won a lot of individual battles in the first half. They set the tone and tempo. The second half we did a better job of stepping up in some of the individual battles.
I think we've become adept at it. It has become our signature play.
I think what we're finding across the church is that people are tired of just writing the check for the mission. They really want to do it. We made a commitment to the city to put up 50 roofs over the next couple of months. We hope to perhaps complete 25 this week with the crews that we have.
I think what it can do for you is center you on the values your team has and make sure you appreciate and honor those values - and consistently honor them,
I think that everyone is capable of being a leader when given a chance.
I think Brian learned a valuable lesson last week. He was frustrated and I told him, 'They're going to make us beat them by throwing the football, so you need to take that as a compliment.' That doesn't mean you surrender. You keep playing because it's going to be a game where you earn every one of your yards.

I think there is a correlation if you have a whole team of guys who can't process information,
I saw a pretty dominating performance by Sarah. She's a good pitcher and does a really good job at mixing up her pitches.
I said to my husband, what will Slava be worth in five years? Every day people pay $30,000 for a new car and trade it off in a few years, but what will he be worth? He's blended in to our family so well. Sending him back there (to Russia) is to me the equivalent of abortion because living out there is like living on the outskirts of hell.
OPEC is keeping it from going any higher. But we've risen on Nigeria. Nigerian crude is light, sweet crude. It tends to be in short supply.
