Get up and do it again. You only lose if you stop

Pastor John got me interested in C.T Studd with his statement about the DCD club. So I started looking up some saying of C. T and the life he lead. Which lead me to more great missionarys and their passion for the lost. So I wrote a post and put it on Facebook. I wanted to share it with you all as well.

I remember recently looking into the eyes of a veteran of that war and telling him thank you. We discussed the differences between my… Continue

A lot of the venders were talking about people just looking and not getting leads. Well that is not what happened to me.

This year my goal was 100 leads and $100,000 thousand in sales from it. Where m… Continue
