I was talking with God this morning about the many opportunities that men have and I felt led to try an experiment with Todays WUPA. Let’s see how it goes….

To begin, let me ask you to make a choice to align your thinking with God.

The only way we can do that, is if we know what he has to say about us.

Here are 7 things God says about you.

  1. Be Successful in love, in life, in business, in health, in relationships, in all things, because there is no failure in me. Proverbs
  2. Be Healed in love, in life, in business, in health, in relationships, in all things, because there is no dis-ease or di-stress in me. 1 John 1
  3. Be Wealthy in love, in life, in business, in health, in relationships, in all things, because I am a God of Abundance and there is no lack in me. Genesis 26
  4. Be Perfect in love, in life, in business, in health, in relationships, in all things, because I am Perfect. Matthew 5
  5. Be Free in love, in life, in business, in health, in relationships, in all things, because I am Free.  John 8 and 1 John 5
  6. Be Whole in love, in life, in business, in health, in relationships, in all things, because I am Whole. 1 Peter
  7. Be just like Christ in life, in business, in health, in relationship, in all things, because Christ is Your head and You Are His Body. 1 Corinthians 11 and Ephesians 4

Being what God says you are, is a choice that you have to make. Being what God says you are is a State of Being that you must Choose.

That means that (you have to say with your heart and with your mouth), I choose to agree with God, I Be what God says I AM.

I Be Successful, I Be Healed, I Be Wealthy, I Be Perfect, I Be Free, I Be Whole, I Be Just Like Christ in Love, in Life, in Business, in Health, in Relationships, in all Things.

That is what Christ bought for me. Christ came to seek and to save that which was lost and he found everything that was lost and he saved everything that he found. Luke 19:10

It is done, it is finished, it is complete. Amen

But wait….

if it is finished, if it is complete – then why doesn’t my life look and feel like the one that is described above? Why do I have illness in my body or broken relationships or lack in my finances?

Glad you asked! Everywhere you are not experiencing what God says about you, those are areas in your heart and in your head where you are in disagreement with God. This internal and outward disagreement causes you to resist getting and applying the truth, the education, the understanding, the wisdom, the skill, the help necessary to Thrive in that specific area.

For instance, let’s say that you’re successful as a brick layer, your craftsmanship is that of the great masters, when people look at your work they stand in awe….but you suck at people management, you’re overweight, you’re in debt and you get angry at the smallest of things.

You could deny the truth, opting instead to believe that God is punishing you or that you are not deserving or that stuff ($#%&) happens and simply continue with this lack and distress in your life – or you can choose to accept and acknowledge the truth and get the help you need to develop in this area and or outsource or get someone else who is gifted in that area to do whatever that thing is for you.

Obviously there are certain things you must do on your own! You can’t get someone else to eat less and move more for you, but you can find someone to help you with a plan and to walk with you until you’ve accomplished your goals and developed the habits necessary to maintain it on your own. Call me, I just might be the right guy to help you in this area and if I’m not we will find someone who can.

But, the first thing that has to happen is you have to choose to agree with God!

Here is your call to action

    1. Choose to agree with God and keep choosing to agree with him all day long, day after day, after day. This will dilute your internal resistance and open you up to receiving help from him and his appointed helpers.
      Here is an example – you feel a symptom in your body….your old response, I must be getting sick, your new response, wait that cannot be right, Jesus says that I am healed and I agree with him, followed by the statement coming from your mouth – Body Be Healed!
    2. Choose to gain the training, understanding, wisdom and skill needed to align your thoughts with the truth in that area.
      Here is an example – you have anger issues, your old response, I just can’t help it, your new response, call Les to see if he is the right guy to help you develop the new habit of not getting angry.
    3. Choose to outsource to someone else who is gifted in the areas where you obviously lack the gift.
      Here is an example – You suck at financial matters, your old response, I guess I’m just doomed to be broke, your new response, call Les to see who he knows that can help me manage this area so that I can be free.

You were not designed and created to do it all, in fact there are some things that you absolutely positively should not be doing, because in doing them you’re preventing God from blessing you and the other person who is supposed to be doing it for you,

This is the Truth! I may not be the right guy to help you, but we will never know unless we talk and I can guarantee you that if I am not, we will both know and if that is what we discover, then I promise, I will help you find that right someone, because more than anything, I want you to Be like Christ.

Here is a short list of opportunities where I am a gifted coach, consultant and trusted advisor.

  • Asking Great Questions – Christ’s model for exposing Truth
  • Maintaining Your State or being in control under all conditions
  • Getting Things Done – High Performance Achievement
  • Getting Personally Optimized – efficiency and effectiveness
  • Cloud Based Business – Professional Optimization
  • Anger Management – Never lose your temper again
  • Communicating with Integrity – sales, negotiations, contracts, agreements that rock
  • Running a Business with the mind of Christ (Truth)
  • Conflict Management – Resolve internal and external conflict and disagreement
  • Family Relations – Building inseparable relationships
  • Understanding Wives – What you have to Be for all to thrive

  • Optimized Health – Fighting weight baby
  • Leadership Integrity – Leading so others will lead themselves
  • Understanding Others – D.I.S.C.

You owe it to God, to yourself and too those who love you, too at least explore what it might take too move beyond the obstacles and barriers that are preventing you from Being what God created you to Be!

Pick up the phone and call me Now, I promise….

I will not pressure you or use my ninja magic to talk you into something that you don’t want to do and I’m convinced that you will discover that it really is quite easy to Break Free!

If you’ve been thinking I don’t have time for personal/professional development, then it’s time you discovered nooks and crannies.

God said:

“And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.” (Romans 12:2)
However, far too many people believe that they don’t have time to give their minds the kind of information that can help them create real, concrete results and achieve their dreams.

So ask yourself these questions:  

  1. How much time to I spend commuting each day? In the U.S., we spend an average of 115 – 130  hours a year commuting to work about 30 – 45 minutes one way.
  2. Going after this and that? The typical person is on the go between 500 to 1,000 hours per year, the equivalent of two full semesters at a university.
  3. How much time is invested at the gym, walking or running, or working out?
  4. Cooking dinner, doing chores, or cleaning the house? As of 2005, men spent at least 13 hours each week on housework
  5. How much is spent waiting on this or that?
  6. Does the TV renew your mind? According to the Nielsen Company, the average American watches 4 hours and 35 minutes of TV each day. How much of that do you think is content designed to uplift and renew your mind?

All of us have stuff to do each day that only requires the use of our body. Instead of vegging out  and wasting those nooks and crannies, what if you used that time to feed your mind with the best information, inspiration, and coaching on the planet to displace the untrue, outdated, inaccurate, unright thinking?

Nothing is more effective at keeping the momentum going than powerful audio programs you listen to on your ipod. The contents of each lesson are divided into convenient, accessible chunks that anyone can listen to, absorb, and take action on in about 25 minutes or less. Best of all, these lessons just require the use of your nooks and crannies.

Combine your nooks and crannies with action, and you’ll find your results will increase exponentially almost before you know it. When you do, you’ll discover that what used to be wasted time will become the most important, profitable, and empowering moments of your day.

When I wrote Renewing our Minds is our responsibility I said I would share 7 powerful ways to expedite the renewal. Today we look at #3 Reading.

The child in this picture will probably read thousands of books in his lifetime, because his mother took the time to teach, make enjoyable and instill the value of reading at an early age. That programming will serve him, serve God and the rest of the world forever. Sadly, many boys did not receive this kind of training and therefore do not read.

Were you aware that studies from business, church and the coaching industry indicate that most men quit reading (quit learning) the moment they finish high school or college. Click to discover more…

I started referring to myself as the less of all men about a week or so ago. I’m simply in awe of God and how nothing I am if my thoughts and beliefs are not aligned with his.

For some reason God decided to call me and I answered the call and over the last several years God has invested thousands of hours in educating and training me to square away my thinking and re-frame my focus to align with his. As a result, I’ve become known for working on the right end of problems or on the cause and not the effects. Thank You God!

Yesterday I said that the entire world is trying to fix the worlds problems by working on the effects instead of on the cause. Yes, churches, governments, schools, employers, men, women and most likely you. Click to discover more…

I wish I could tell you that finding a great coach is as easy as finding your next fishing lure or Harley accessory. But I can’t, so I wont!

Be Warned – Tough Love Today!

If you know me or you’ve been reading the WUPA for a while, then you know that I’m known for working on the right end of problems. Now, that may not seem revolutionary to you, until you wake up and discover that most of the world is working on the effects or wrong end of problems. By most I mean churches, schools, governments, employers, parents, men, women, YOU!

So in that spirit, I want you to ask yourself a couple of serious questions, aimed at focusing on the right end of whatever opportunity, issue or problem you are facing.

Before we move on, here is a heavy dose of truth. I don’t care who you are – -everyone needs help getting past themselves, so that they can emerge as everything that God created them to be.

Only foolish and ignorant men deny their God by being less than what he created them to be. (sobbing, tears)

1. What is it that you really want? Most men cannot answer this question because Click to discover more…

The evidence clearly shows that making and spending quiet time with God is not a high priority for most men.

Most when asked why, can’t pin point the exact reason or reasons, but they will say things like – I fall asleep or I’m not sure what I’m supposed to do or I tried it, but didn’t get anything out of it and then there are some who have had experiences like mine.

I should start by saying, that for years God was not even on my radar screen. The only time I thought about him, was when I was in trouble or had some emotional pain, of course I’m probably the only guy on the planet that has had that problem.

God is benched and or on standby only for those troubling times when men can’t handle things on their own. Click to discover more…

WOW! I rolled out of bed this morning, tip toed to the bathroom and in route heard God say and I repeat “You have all of this Truth, but do you really believe? No, he didn’t wake up the rest of the house with his booming base voice, I heard him in my head and in my heart. I heard him with all of my senses.

My response was not what I expected! My first thought was WOW, what a bold question, followed by…..

Man, I have to pee! Imagine trying to process a question like that when all you really want/need to do is pee. Ahhh….relief!

Next route coffee pot. Come on coffee, wake me up so I can figure out what just happened. Click to discover more…

There are no short cut’s around God’s instruction to be Renewed in the Spirit of Your Mind. Ephesians 4:23 However, there are 7 ways that God provides to make the process easy, enjoyable and in many cases instant.

I provide an outline and description of each way and then through the next 7 WUPA’S I explain the details for each. Please hear me loud and clear – none of these will work unless you fully commit to doing the work yourself.

One of the fundamental flaws of any class or person
is the failure to continue working on their education,
for it is education that makes the difference between
dreams deferred and dreams realized. Dr. Freeman Hrabowski

But, education alone is not enough.

The sheer volume of information (books, quotes, methods, strategies, tactics, concepts, theories and so forth) that are readily available today is staggering. Getting educated in todays world is easy, but there is a serious problem that must be addressed by Christ’s Body of Men.

Consider this – almost all of the information available is ill conceived, Click to discover more…


Whole: Nothing missing, nothing broken, nothing has to be added, nothing needs to be taken away.
Thrive: To Be everything your Creator, Created you to BE.

Both are a State of Mind and a State of Being.

Before a man can come Fully Alive and Thrive he must choose to get his mind around the truth that, that is who he was created to be.

He must choose to see himself as being Whole and Complete.
He must choose to see himself as Being what he was created to BE.

God created man Gen 1:26,27 to BE – to BE like him.

So when we look at our Creator, we clearly see the perfect model to live our lives by.

God says, I AM!

His spirit, his mindset, his psychology, his consciousness and thoughts all declare and affirm – I AM. Click to discover more…
