A couple of years ago, I was having lunch with my mentor at work. He noticed that I was drinking water and not eating food. This was unusual because I always ate when we met. He asked me why I was not eating. I told him each January I fast for a couple of days. This involves eating no food and drinking just water. To my amazement, he said, "Isn't this too aggressive? In other words, why was I subjecting myself to something so difficult and "risky?" Sadly, my mentor dropped de

New year resolutions are useless: If you want a different outcome for 2022, set SMART Goals When I was a child, I made new year resolutions, and they worked for a few days and at most one month.

There is nothing wrong w

We can all agree on the how of Christmas because Jesus was born. However, we will miss the bigger picture if we talk only about the how and not the why. Many people have been able to pass the how. This is why Merry Christmas has been replaced with Happy Holiday. The celebration of the birth of Christ has been reduced to material consumption and many other things. Many are uncomfortable mentioning the name of Christ because they have refused to acknowledge the WHY of Christmas

For your money to grow, you must put it to work. Money that is not put to work will depreciate and lose value over time. Inflation is your worst enemy. To grow your money you must delay gratification and add time to the money.

Philippians

In 2018 after many years of procrastination and waiting to become lucky in writing, I realized that luck had forgotten the road to my house and was refusing to show up. I had been waiting and praying for inspiration to knock on my door and help me to write prolifically. I was disappointed because even inspiration missed my address, it seems luck and inspiration had conspired to cause my downfall by sabotaging my writing career before it even started. I kept waiting for the fe

What comes in your mind when you see a picture like this? Do you take a minute to let a picture like this have an impact on you or you just skip it? What are some of the stereotypes such a picture enforces? Do you have what it takes to see beyond the distractions in this picture? Being vulnerable is not for the faint-hearted, but you have to learn to be vulnerable if you want your life to inspire, encourage, and bless other people. The pressure to always appear put together,

In 2002 I was sitting in a conference room listening to a speaker from the United States of America delivering a speech. When I heard the gentle voice of the Holy Spirit in my heart, "Eric you are going to America for graduate school." Lord, how is this going to happen? America is too far and expensive. How on earth am I going to raise the 12 million francs that is needed to pay my tuition per year, when I was not even having one hundred thousand in my account? The air ticket

You need to see the light in the eyes of the children, feel the energy in the room, and hear the excitement in their voices as they connect to foundation of our civilization and way of life. The children have every reason to be excited because geology truly inspires! " We are part of the rock cycle," I proudly declared and the students took a second look at their hands when I made them understand that we have minerals in our bodies that come from rocks. After probing them for
