Good Friday Morning Nostriches! Up early again, that’s the way I like it—except the reasons being nurse to the other three members of the house 🤧🤕🤢 Not sure how much work I’ll get done today but I will try my best 💪 I finished one project yesterday, revamping and setting our son up for this next season of what we term Purpose Path. It involves 5 C’s that most would actually do well to adhere to. 🤔 Instead of memorizing a bunch of rote facts, we encourage the following Mission: I Pursue God-given purpose daily through the 5 C's: • Be Curious about the past, present, and future; exploring ideas to gain knowledge, wisdom, and discernment.

 • Create value for myself, family, and community by honing skills in creativity, contribution, and commerce.

 • Connect meaningfully with God’s image bearers to build relationships and foster stewardship.

 • Cultivate life and resiliency to strengthen body, mind, and spirit for adventure and leadership.

 • Consume wisely to maintain balance and focus through my surroundings and inputs.  —so I can thrive as someone who leads dependent upon God, stewards resources and relationships entrusted to me, and manifests the Kingdom of Heaven on Earth through my actions. ===== When push comes to shove (…yea we beat each other up in our house every now and again 😉🤣) we exist to bring glory to God. We find the 5 C’s help guide us in that mission. #GM #PV #homeschooling #homeschool #homeschoolstr #unschooling #unschool #unschoolstr #worldschool #worldschooling #Jesus #Bible #Biblstr #wisdom #God #leadership #business #Entrepreneurship #self-improvement #self-confidence

@jack I got an email from Cash App saying “We’ve all got money goals. Banking through Cash App can help you reach them.” But I noticed Cash App wants me to connect my bank… So I’m curious, is the idea for Cash App to become one’s bank without connecting to tradfi?

Good glorious morning leaders (and Nostriches)! It started when I was young, getting up before first light to go hunting or fishing. It continued in my teenage years when I had to be up early for Jazz Band rehearsal (first down beat was 05:30)… It got a little wonky in my 20’s as the music world, or more aptly years of school before didn’t do a good job of preparing you for being a musician—sleep schedule wise—05:30 down beats became head on pillow cause you just finished your gig a couple hours before. Now as an adult, some might say by age but not maturity 🤔 🤣, I love waking before the sun comes up. In one regard it’s like a mini challenge, can I beat the sun rising? But truth be told, I find I get my best work done before the rest of the world wakes. There is a silence, a stillness (except the bugs here in Florida), and an opportunity to work on myself before I pour into others. That’s the real reason I think waking early is mission critical to leaders. How can we possibly give from an empty cup? We can’t! (For if we try, that’s called burnout…) So…good morning moon and good glorious morning Leaders! #GM #leadership #business #entrepreneurship
