"Intolerance of your present creates your future." --Mike Murdock
Each morning at 6 a.m. I wake up and walk to the rec center to exercise. I do this on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday.
As I walk, I listen to audio tapes on my Walkman. Lately, I've been listening to some Mike Murdock tapes. He has been blessed with uncommon wisdom.
A lot of what Stephen Pierce wrote about in Under Oath: The Truth, The Whole Truth & Nothing But the Truth was based on the teachings of Mike Murdock. Pierce gave attribution to Murdock a number of times throughout the ebook.
Anyway, I had to share with you this nugget of wisdom. Until you are disgusted with your present, you will not do what's necessary to birth the future. You must become intolerant of your present circumstances to step forward into your future.
At what point will you say, "Enough is enough?" How much pain will it take?
Hey Ryan, that's great advice.
I wish you'd been there to tell me this about 5 years ago!
We can set all the goals we want. But until we get "sick and tired of being sick of tired," of not being where we want to be, or not having what we want to have, nothing happens.

Hi Ryan.
This is true. When you realize where you are at is not where you want to be, you will begin to make changes in your life.

Hi Ryan,
Being that I've been around for awhile I can't give you a good idea of what product to launch. I'm not the right target market - I think. But I know you'll do a great job.
I wanted to say that I love Mike Murdock's wisdom books. He's mainly how I went from being a house cleaner to veteran copywriter. I highly recommend his materials.
Keep up the good work Ryan.

sounds like some simple wisdom that could use some listening to and some action.

Mike - Thanks for the feedback.
I didn't know you read Mike Murdock. I too have found his material helpful (although I don't agree with all of his theology).

Hi! So true.
Most often, I know it's time to move on when I am already sick and tired of something.
Of course, there are also times that I move on because there's the prospect of something much better than the present. :-)
