‘Why’ is a question that Christians should be comfortable with asking. It has always been near the center of Christian thought. It’s the type of question that we’ve been asking for as long as our faith has been around. It’s a question that science can’t answer, but only faith can. Science can tell us ‘How’…

One speaker after another would get up to share how unfair the renovation of their facilities were, selectively forgetting the process the residents went through agreeing that the renovation was needed. During this exchange, I was…

For years now I have been a loyal member of the Star Alliance Frequent Flyer Program. Although I don’t fancy a few airlines that are part of the Star Alliance Network, I refuse to give up because of Singapore Airlines.

((Please disregard my earlier post, it was an accident.)) “It all starts with clarity. You have to know WHY you do WHAT you do. If people don’t buy WHAT you do, they buy WHY you do it, so it follows that if you don’t know WHY you do WHAT you do, how will anyone else?…

Simon Sinek closes his book Start with Why with the following statement that more or less summarizes everything contained in it. “Leaders never start with what needs to be done. Leaders start with WHY we need to do things. Leaders inspire action.” (Sinek 2009, 228) In other words, discovering our Why and passionately communicating it is…

“Those who are able to inspire give people a sense of purpose.” Simon Sinek This year I have been influenced by many readings and people. There have been times of being inspired.
