You've got to separate yourself from the foolishness & from the fools. You have tremendous value & you're a game changer. Stop allowing fools to devalue u. You've got to see that you're different from them. #COACHPRIME
This is a catastrophe.
You had a profession that was proud of their work. They would build independent practices, establish themselves in their communities, and work well into their twilight years.
Now we are a bunch of w2 employees looking for the exit.
It’s been a month since my beautiful wife, Tamara, unexpectedly passed away.
The pain is still so real—not just for me, but for my kids,our family, friends, and everyone who had the blessing of knowing her. Today, I just want to publicly say thank you to each and every one of you for the prayers, love, and support. It has meant more than words can ever express.
Tamara touched so many lives. She was larger than life—magnetic, beautiful, loyal… an amazing mother, CoCo, and my soulmate for 31 years.
I guess when you love someone so deeply, it breaks your heart even more.
Every single day, she read her devotional. Her faith was strong, and she truly lived by it:
“Don’t dwell on the negative. Keep your head up so you can see all the blessings around you.”
I’m holding onto that now… one day at a time.
Appreciate my @dallascowboys football brothers and Jerry and Gene Jones for the amazing flowers and support!!
Until we dance again , Rest Your Beautiful Soul.

I was at this game and the white pants on the road deal crossed my mind for about one second. What also crossed my mind is just how blessed we are. How awesome it is to be able to sit at a game and watch a field full of exceptional kids all working hard and competing. Perspective is a blessing in itself. Instead of seeing a glass half empty every time, sit back and take a different perspective, you might shock yourself in the best way🙏🏽 B
I just was offered $72/hr to resuscitate newborns on weekends.
But I earn $700/hr to be an expert witness for non-malpractice civil cases.
Hospitals stamp non-compete clauses into physician contracts to keep us from ever knowing the true value of our degrees. Do not sign them.
The moment someone leads with their credentials you know they have run out of argument. The more credentials someone has accumulated the less they feel obliged to demonstrate it through reasoning and the more they feel entitled to substitute it for reasoning entirely.
This is extraordinarily convenient.
It means the person with the most credentials never has to engage the substance of a challenge.
They simply have to remind you of their credentials.
The challenge dissolves not because it was answered but because the questioner has been made to feel unqualified to ask it.
Watch how it works in practice.
You present a documented fact.
A 990 filing.
A Lown Institute analysis.
An FEC contribution table.
The response is not to address the fact.
The response is to establish that the person addressing it has thirty years of experience, two advanced degrees, and a perspective you could not possibly understand from the outside.
The fact has not been answered.
It has been outranked.
This is called appeal to authority and it is the most socially acceptable form of intellectual dishonesty in existence.
It works because we have spent centuries building institutions designed to produce deference to credentialed expertise.
The institution needs you to believe that the credential validates the argument.
Otherwise the argument has to stand on its own. And sometimes it cannot.
The 990 is public.
The FEC filing is searchable.
The data does not have a degree.
It does not need one.
It only needs someone with the discipline to read it and the nerve to say what it shows.
That combination turns out to be rarer than a PhD.
Please pray for my 17-year-old son.
He was forced to unload and load the dishwasher.
He used some disrespectful words so mama turned off the internet that ended up crashing the game he was in the middle of playing.
He might not recover. 😬
I’m not sure there is a stable of golfers at a club in Texas that could hang with our ten best at Shady Oaks in Fort Worth.
