Do something that matter for people who care - Seth Godin.
What Seth had said resonated with me over the past 40 years. With the businesses that I have had, we did things that matter for those who care. Differentiate your business. I'd like to encourage you today to do things that matter for the people that are carrying you in your industry. Do not waiver, stand on your core values! Stand on your principles and provide a great service. Decide on that you are and stick with that thing!

Have you ever thought about how much your words matter you know? In the book of James it talks about how if we can hold our tongue. If we can get control of our tongue we can control our whole body and I'm like man that is such a powerful word. To think about our words and how they matter. Think about the ways that you could encourage your peers and your colleagues. Start at home. Think of ways that you could encourage your wife instead of belittling her and berating her in front of her friends. Think about if you encouraged and edified her. I want to tell you right now man your words matter and I want to encourage you to think clearly today on how you can edify and encourage those that are around you.

"You always want to leave your audience wanting more." What does this mean? We got to be careful even in our conversations when we are getting to know people even better. You want to leave them wanting a little more. You do not want them leaving and saying "I am glad that is over!". There are also cases that when we are in the phase of knowing someone better, we talk a little too much about our ourself. It would be best to turn the conversation around. Always point it back to the person you are with. In doing so, we are leaving a sweet taste in their mouth, like they can't wait to get back to that conversation.

Have you ever noticed in pro sports or even college sports people how they win all the time? Do you know why they win all the time? They know how to recruit. They're the best recruiters on the planet. Those guys know how to pick the team. Why do we think it's any differently in our businesses? We go out and we get the cheapest person. You're like, "Hey, come on you're $12 an hour, we'll take you. You're $8 an hour. You're $20 an hour. You're $50 an hour." Whatever it is that you think is cheap, for whatever that you're having them to do, you pick that person rather than their passion, rather than their heart. You need to pick the right person. You need to go after the talent. The ones that have heart.

I wanted to encourage you guys to do is to serve. Either in your local church or in your community. Don't spend all your time working and trying to make money. Listen, we're gonna be remembered for that legacy and it's not for how much you've got but it's how much you give away. Take the time out and serve locally. Serve the people that are around you and I promise you the dividends will be huge. If you're feeling that tug to go and serve at your local church, don't be, you know, just a taker, be somebody that give. So use your skills. Use your talents and see what can happen as a result of it.
