Kindle Notes & Highlights
You can prosper effectively only by drawing on what is authentically in you. The drawing process starts from your core. You can only be fruitful out of your understanding of and connection to what is in your core.
Creativity inspires creativity. When you align yourself with people who inspire you and help draw out the best in you, you find your best self.
When you understand that your timing and God’s timing are different, you are in a better position to accept life’s inconveniences.
A present inconvenience may be necessary for a long-term benefit.
Ultimately, we want to be successful so that we can make a difference in the lives of others. But before you can be successful, you have to be a survivor.
Prioritize your spending so you can be free to travel the road of Destiny. You can’t be free to pursue Destiny if you’re a slave to debt and spending.

God can use disorder to create a new order in your life. Sometimes disruptions actually serve to order our chaotic circumstances and take us to a new place.
Sometimes the best hello to a new opportunity is the good-bye you gave to a dead situation.
The West African Ashanti people say, “If you understand the beginning well, the end will not trouble you.”
Parents must allow their children to learn how to struggle well and grow strong enough to survive.

Bil Keane: “Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift. That’s why it’s called the present!”
The cool breeze of death warms the heart to maximize the moment.
Just like your party wasn’t meant to go on forever, some provisions for your vision are not meant to stay in your life forever.
Do not attack every situation like a warrior. Sometimes you do not need to win a fight, you need a God-given strategy.
You need a godly strategy to handle the internal defaults that have gotten you stuck because Destiny requires you to live beyond the temporary, inconvenient challenges.
…and trauma
