Madness is not just seen as external disarray, but is also the rigid internal neglect of the wild found in a fully tamed man.

If you seek to love God, and walk in his love - that points back to finding love for yourself.

Treat your mind, soul, and body with love - not lazy neglect.

Vanity is self lust, not self love.

Live in love of all things.

Is naked evil?

As a person of faith when does art become porn to you?

Is a “nude” art or wreckless indulgence?

I’m getting an oddly large amount of “fight club”-esche inner dialogue going on anymore. Both in the desire to break free from any pressures or assumptions placed in me and in wanting to reverse the masculine taming I see. #imjacksangrychristian

Ash Wednesday is the start of Lent. It is a day that starts rituals for many across the world of 40 days in fasting and prayer. The ash is representative of someone who is mourning and repentant.

Repentance is powerful. It’s not just being sorry, its doing a 180 change in your life from many motivations. It’s often a bittersweet combination of hope, sorrow, conviction, hard truth, and compassion that brings us to a point of repentance.

There are in all of our lives, mine especially, things for which we need to step into repentance. Religious or not, knowing we need a change and stepping into that change is important - and that is why Ash Wednesday gives us a prompting to do just that.

I love these ritual’s for the richness of the story they tell and the specificity of the reminders they bring to our faith and hearts. Don’t let the day just fly by as usual. Look dead into the change you know you are avoiding, write it down if you need to make it real, and do some business in your own heart and with God if your faith is in him.

I liked this quote so much I made this thing.

“It’s called being part of a society. Not everything goes your way. I don’t let my kids eat ice cream every night. They wish I did, but even they know: that doesn’t make me the Hitler of ice cream

“Speaking of apologies - you should learn to have very few. Your mistakes are not that many and the overuse of “sorry” comes from the manipulative or fearful heart of men. Remove the word “sorry” from your mouth and your spine will strengthen as will your actual times for apology.”

3 Biggest learnings from starting a business?

Tue, 21 Feb 2012 10:18:13 -0600

The business plan is for you - but all investors or the bank want to know is

Does the cash flow work?
When do you break even?
Do you have the collateral to cover the financing to get started?

They will approve a very mediocre idea/plan of the collateral is there - and will pass on something huge if it’s under leveraged.

So! The biggest foundation on being able to live your passions and make an idea reality?

Save your money - get out of debt - obtain financial discipline.

This experience has been even more proof that “having an idea” is nearly worthless of you don’t have enough courage to live the simple disciplines to make it possible. It’s not just execution once you have the idea, it’s the lifestyle of character before it that matters. Live so success can happen - and it will.
