Black Friday Linkfest
Christmas shopping season has “officially” begun! Black Friday deals were already being had in the wee hours of the morning. I’m amazed at the consumer mentality of Christmas. Despite all the bad news about our economy there were already people lining up outside of Wal-Mart ready to crash the doors to buy a $10 television (or something similar!). So with that in mind I kick off my Friday links with:
…This video from my friend Keith Fletcher. It speaks for itself. Today, I sleep in a bit and then, I’m off to study for Sunday before relaxing at home with my kids (my wife has to work today). We’re going to watch a movie and play some games before taking the dog for a walk later this afternoon. I’m not buying ANYTHING today except a cheap cup of coffee when I’m studying.
It’s never too early to lay out goals you want to achieve. In fact, you should be doing this regularly and reviewing your progress weekly. Danny Gamache writes a great column on this very topic at the LifeHack blog.
Ron Hunter at the “Write Idea on Leadership” blog previews a new book by Pastor Stan Toler titled: “Re Think Your Life.” The book’s premise is on a “mind diet” and making yours work better. Interesting thoughts are shared. Toler’s books are always a good read.
From the folks who brought you the “YouVersion” bible and “Church Metrics” free church software comes the latest project “VideoTeaching”. Lifechurch.tv is behind these great products and this latest one looks to be another interesting addition. Sign up ahead of time so you’ll be up to speed when it launches.
..and last but not least…
If you need to clean up the clutter in your home or office (maybe they are one in the same!) then don’t wait for the new year to do it. Get it done now. This post by Leo Babauta will help get you moving!
Happy Black Friday all! Enjoy the reading. I’ll see you again on Monday.
