Being a good writer isn’t about using fancy words or complex sentences. It’s about igniting interest and communicating clearly.
Kahneman & Harari write at a 9th-10th grade level. Tolstoy 8th, Austen 7th, Hemingway 4th.
You don't need a page if it can be said in a paragraph.
"I am who I am" isn't a justification for treating people poorly.
We all have multiple selves. It's up to you to decide which elements of your identity and personality show up.
If you didn't consider the interests of others, you didn't bring the best version of yourself.
@GenoEspn Seriously the toughest. Was a total champ during his PET scan and treatment today. It’s a blessing to be his dad. And thanks again - the book has been a fantastic read, and I can’t wait to finish it.
@KirkHerbstreit @GenoEspn thank you for helping me pass the time a little easier today as my son Luke receives his 10th immunotherapy treatment @CincyChildrens.
Great day at GABP! Summer Bash with @DragonflyCinci & @Reds. Liam loved meeting the families and kids and brought them all shirts! Said he was kinda nervous 😊 He got over it quick 😂 the kids were amazing. Thank you !
Personality is how you respond on a typical day. Character is how you show up on your worst day.
It's easy to demonstrate fairness, integrity, and generosity when things are going well.
The real question is whether you stand by those values when the deck is stacked against you.
My twins Tye and Jake were born on June 18th of 2000 and it was a Father's Day I will never forget. I tell the whole story in my book, OUT OF THE POCKET, and I’m gifting one of you an advance reader copy! Retweet to enter. US only, ends June 20th 11:59pm ET.
BOTHAM JEAN'S BROTHER FORGIVES AMBER GUYGER: "I'm not going to say I hope you rot and die just like my brother did. I personally want the best for you. I wasn't going to say this in front of my family or anyone but I don't even want you to go to jail..." https://t.co/xIExvp4qsl
A Christian should never feel perfectly at home with any major political party. If there ever comes a day when our beliefs are 100% in line with a political group, chances are good that our politics are influencing our faith rather than our faith influencing our politics.
When God created the earth, it was quiet and you could hear His footsteps. Now, the world is loud. Much discipline and obedience is needed to hear Him. Try and find time to listen.
