This week I worked alot and lost momentum on my running.  Eventually I will need to really pick it up if I wish to reach my goals.  I also did a practice run on Heroic Conflict Resolution.  I will need to do some adjustments but I enjoyed doing it.  I also took Rachel to work with me this week.  Working along side of my daughter felt very rewarding.  She filmed portions of the Heroic Conflict Resolution class for me to add to my portfolio soon.  She is busy editing the video.
I continued to read more about conflict resolution this week but the book that I finished was a new book by Lencioni called "Getting Naked".  From this are the following principles that will hopefully develop into what I do as I transition into being a public speaker and author:
1) Consult don't sell
2) Give away the business
3) Tell the kind truth
4)Enter the danger
5)Ask dumb questions
6) Make dumb suggestions
7)Celebrate mistakes
8) Take a bullet for the client
9)Make everything about the client
10)Honor the client's work
11) Do the dirty work

The point is to live a life of transparency.  I will be moving in this direction even more in the days and weeks to come.  I realize that along the way that I will be offending some so I am carefully crafting my words to speak the truth in love.  Essentially I see this nation that I love selling itself to the devil and as a result our nation is collapsing.  I can not stand back and do nothing.  Over the next several months I will be developing my plan and in God's timing I will do what I can to right this ship.  Pray for wisdom on what to do and when.  Thanks.
