Slow Down
May 14, 2019 10:33 - 5 minutes - 11.6 MBEven though we only have a limited amount of time here on this earth, sometimes the most productive use of our time is to slow down.

The Game Is On The Line
May 13, 2019 09:00 - 5 minutes - 11.8 MBThere are many great players in sports that have an unbelievable ability to perform with the game on the line, but we must keep in mind that there were a lot of plays before that which had to happen in order to make that last play possible.

That doesn't just apply to sports, but it applies to anything we are trying to accomplish in our daily lives. We must perform like the game...
Look In The Mirror

Arrogance
May 09, 2019 10:57 - 5 minutes - 11.7 MBWe have to be careful not to let our achievements turn into arrogance.

Instead we should help them. www.ChamesEntertainment.com
I Wish I Could Do That
May 08, 2019 10:57 - 5 minutes - 11.7 MBWe go online and we see people doing these crazy stunts and trick shots. Sometimes we think to ourselves, "wow I wish I could do that!" Why?

Passion
May 07, 2019 11:01 - 5 minutes - 11.7 MBWhat is your passion? Sometimes we get our passions confused with our innate talents. We can be talented at something, but that doesn't make it our passion. Even if you are talented, if you don't enjoy it then it becomes slavery. www.ChamesEntertainment.com
Don't Laugh, Learn
May 06, 2019 10:55 - 5 minutes - 11.9 MBInstead of laughing at the mistakes of others, you should try to learn from them.

What if instead we took notes on how to be better in our own individual journeys? www.ChamesEntertainment.com
Treat People Right
May 03, 2019 10:58 - 5 minutes - 11.5 MBIt is important for us to remember that we must treat people right, regardless of what we think they might be able to do for us in the future. We must be in the habit of giving rather than receiving. www.ChamesEntertainment.com
Don't Stop
May 02, 2019 10:48 - 5 minutes - 11.6 MBIt is ok to feel distraught. Emotional distress is an inevitable part of life. The key is to channel that energy back into mission, as opposed to using the energy to blame other people for your distress. www.ChamesEntertainment.com
Take Risks

Faith

It Doesn't Get Easier
April 29, 2019 10:55 - 5 minutes - 11.6 MBIf you are continuing to push yourself as you continue your journey, it is not going to get easier.

Uplift Others
April 26, 2019 10:45 - 5 minutes - 11.6 MBFriendly competition is fine, but we shouldn't be tearing each other down. We should be uplifting each other. We should all be inspiring each other to live our most fulfilling lives. You must give before you can receive. www.ChamesEntertainment.com
Get Rich Quick
April 25, 2019 10:41 - 5 minutes - 11.6 MBMany of us desire to get rich quick, but history shows us that the people who receive a lot of money in a short amount of time will lose it if they don't know what to do with it when they get it.

Be The Greatest
April 22, 2019 10:40 - 5 minutes - 11.5 MBBe the greatest version of yourself that you can be.

A Single Instant

Don't Isolate Yourself
April 18, 2019 10:59 - 5 minutes - 11.6 MBIt is easy to want to isolate yourself so you don't have to deal with doubters, but ultimately nothing great is ever accomplished in isolation. It takes a team of people with different skill sets and perspectives. www.ChamesEntertainment.com
Forgiveness
April 17, 2019 10:40 - 5 minutes - 11.5 MBWhen we lack forgiveness we do more harm to ourselves than we do to the other person.

Left or Right

Disappearing Jobs

Be Honest
April 04, 2019 11:11 - 5 minutes - 11.6 MBBe Honest with yourself about where you are in your journey.
