EAT THAT FROG

Brian Stacy wrote a great book on leadership. He starts with three sayings that inspired his title:

1. If the first thing you do each morning is to eat a live frog, you can go through the day with the satisfaction of knowing that that is probably the worst thing that is going to happen to you all day long.

2. If you have to eat two frogs, eat the ugliest first.

3. If you have to eat a live frog, it doesn't pay to sit and look at it for very long.

So what I'm wondering is...

What are the frogs that are staring at you??

Eat That Frog Summary

Two Wolves

One evening an old man told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside every person.  He said, "My son, the battle is between two "wolves" inside us all.

One is Evil. It is anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego.

The other is Good. It is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness,  benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith."

The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather:

"Which wolf wins?"

The old man replied simply, "The one you feed."  

So the question is...  Which wolf are you feeding?

Galations 6:7-8

Francis Chan - on 1 John 2:6

I'm not sure that I've ever heard it said any better than this. As a disciple of Jesus, we are called to a life of service to Him - not to ourselves. We're called to nail our desires to the cross and follow His example of sacrifice and humility. This is definitely not casual Christianity!
