Today’s Message is: “Trial and Error Day!” Why Not?


“Great leaders have a ‘trial and error’ mindset. They will plan the plan, test the plan, watch the execution, take notes, learn, and adjust fire as necessary. These leaders are flexible and they learn to remove errors and failures with their experience and desire to succeed. Do you have the problem-solving skills to work through trial and error along the leadership journey?” — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs

I would love to have my brothers and sisters learn that the only way to Heaven is thru our believing and acceptance of Jesus, as our our Lord and Savior. Trust in Him and understand that the way of Jesus assures…

Been there, done that several times, and got plenty of "T-Shirts!" my friend. That is part of leadership... if you run into a bmp in the road, you fill in, smooth it over, and try to roll over it again, and again! Have a great day Jack!
