How do you feel when someone tells you “You are doing a fantastic job.”

My intent is to always be blogging about current issues I am experiencing in my business and how the Bible is useful in not only arriving at a solution but at teaching me how to handle similar solutions in the future.

A chasm exists between the business attitude toward selfishness and the biblical commandment for humility.

I’m having a great day; everything is going my way, the sun is shining, and I’m feeling good. You could make the argument that I’m happy and I’d probably agree.

Go ahead and whine, or don’t.

I just did it. I did not mean to, but I didn’t want a confrontation or to hurt anyone’s feelings. It is just a habit, unfortunately, that is automatic and it occasionally happens to me without thinking.

What is on the top of my mind today is decision making.

I don’t do this often, but I sat down this morning and wrote a list of all the business issues that are nagging at my brain. I seem to have worked myself into a logjam of problems that seem to continue to pile up into a Mt. Everest size proportion. What’s worse, none of them appear to be getting close to being settled despite my making a daily resolve to conquer at least one of these issues.

By way of introduction, I am Philip Struble, author of Zebedee and Sons Fishing Co., Business Advice from the Bible.
