My pastor says something that rings with so much truth: Jesus is the goal. Daniel Villarreal is a visionary guy. He understands dreams. He understands risk. He’s living a life that’s all about that. But he understands that ultimately, the dream isn’t the end result. Jesus is the end result. He’s the completion. There’s a…

When I look back on it now, I realize how ridiculous I was being. But it didn’t feel that way when I was in the middle of it. You see; up until recently, I was hosting my main flagship site on a web host that cost $8/month. That small investment was running my site which…

Every now and then I’ll go to the “Discover” section of Instagram. I’ll stumble on someone whose profile is the epitome of cool. They’re always at the coolest beaches, drinking the coolest coffees, or watching the best concerts. It’s a lie. Well, maybe they really do those things. But if you look at only the…

I constantly talk to people who complain about not having enough time. “I’d love to hang out but I just have too much work to do.” Or they say, “I’d love to write a book, I just don’t have the time to make it happen.” I say that’s a lie. Now, before all my friends…

When people find out I’m a published author, I frequently get questions about a book someone’s working on. “I’m interested in publishing a book. I was thinking of going with x publisher. What do you think about them?” I always say, “Sounds good. Go for it.” Because to be honest, I don’t really believe the…
