Bust This Time Thief
A simple exercise in efficiency and focus and give you hours back each day.
Everyone is different… different backgrounds, different upbringings, different beliefs. And along with all those differences, everyone also carries different pasts and different places from which they’ve come. We all have different states of mind and points of view.
It’s really a beautiful thing. But those differences can also be a source of conflict. Differences can cause arguments and dissension in the home, in your workplace and in every relationship. Why? A lack of unity.
Unity provides the only way to truly appreciate other people’s gifts and allow them to live and work within those gifts. Unity, according to Webster’s Dictionary, is a condition of harmony and is the only way we, with all of our differences, can come together to accomplish anything.
But, 3 things kill unity and may actually be sabotaging your relationships. What I don’t want you to do is read these things and think, “Oh, so-and-so really needs to read this! They totally have this problem.” That may be so… but that’s not what this is about. I really want you to find the maturity to examine your life and your relationships, to see if any of these 3 things is present.
All 3 of these things KILL unity. They destroy harmony. They cause conflicts, arguments, bitterness and resentment in relationships.
So, exactly how do you BUILD unity? Just as there are unity killers, there are also unity builders.
It all comes down to this: Everyone you encounter is unique. We all have different stories, different feelings, gifts and dreams. Each person in your family, in your office, in your church, in your client base, in your community is different… and significant!
That’s why it’s so important to learn how to encourage other people’s strengths and coach them within their weaknesses – without condemnation – to truly embrace their differences. Because we all need each other. And we can all learn from each other! We can learn to work together in unity, instead of division.
Unity is not conforming to one “socially acceptable” idea. A lack of wisdom tries to force conformity, instead of unity. But this is foolishness. I believe true unity is diversity working in harmony. It appreciates the strengths and weaknesses of each individual and comes together to form a mutually-beneficial relationship.
This goes for your home, your workplace and your community. Where there is unity, there is harmony and teamwork. Where there is unity, your influence explodes and your bottom line increases. Where there is unity, relationships flourish. Where there is unity, there is freedom for each person to truly be who they were designed to be.

Less than 20% of us feel like we’re living “The American Dream”…but, I am NOT going to show you how to become one of those 20%! I want you to rise to the elite 2%, who define their OWN success & achieve outrageous, tailor-made-FOR-YOU dreams!
Over half of Americans gave themselves a “C” or lower on their financial knowledge. If that’s you, what’s your plan to raise YOUR personal financial “grade”? Because you don’t HAVE to stay at the bottom of the class!
