As humans, we have the incredible gift of being able to “feel all the feelings.” Moments of great joy, great sadness, all of these are wonderful things. However, letting our feelings and letting our emotions out of our control can also have negative effects on not just us, but those around us. We must understand how to navigate our feelings, and direct them in the directions that best work for our dream.
Self-awareness and self-regulation are but two of the most important tools in the path to control our emotions. It is by looking at the mirror (seeing the plank in our own eye), that we can make moves away from obstacles in our lives, or potential stressors (taking the speck out of your brother’s eye). We’ll take a look at the Jesus’ Way and what He can teach us about regulating our emotions to succeed. NUBvOFYeVLSprBYQrRZe

Facing Failure: Taking Ownership of the Little Mistakes in Our Lives
Failure is a part of life. It sucks to hear that, but it’s true. Any journey, any path, any goal you’re trying to reach will often be met with failure. But more often than not, we’re not afraid of what that failure may bring, but rather, we’re afraid of failure itself. Fear keeps so many stuck, immobilized, unfulfilled, hopeless, thinking “What if we fail? What if it doesn’t work?”
In today’s episode, let’s shine the light on this sinister enemy. Lurking in the shadows of every dream pursuit failure does it’s best to keep us stationary. Yet, you will discover today that simply shining the light on failure, owning it, takes away its power and puts power back into our hands!
BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU’LL LEARN:
- What can happen to us if we succumb to the fear of failure, and how the inaction and stagnation that often comes with that fear keeps us from pursuing our dream.
- How you can take failure and use it to your own personal growth by learning from these falls so we can rise so much higher. Taking ownership of our failure and using it as a stepladder to success will get us so much farther than we think. We all fail, but no one is a failure.
- What the Way of Jesus can teach us on what to do in the face of failure, and how even the most virtuous people are going to face challenges that may hold them back, and yet they’re still remembered today.

The Man In The Mirror: How Self-reflection Helps You Grow & Succeed
It’s the beginning of a new year, and there’s no better time than now to look back and reflect on all of the things that shaped us for the better… and for the worse. These are times of self-reflection, but we shouldn’t limit ourselves to once-a-year, new year resolution self-assessment. Rather, self-reflection should be a constant mental exercise that, just like its physical counterpart, must be trained with discipline.
Everyone can take advantage of self-reflection, and this look deep into ourselves can and must happen often. Believe it or not, the path to solving exterior problems and stressors almost always begins with a look inward. So let’s start off the year with the right foot and get excited to meet that man in the mirror.
BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU’LL LEARN:
- The importance of self-reflection and its benefits for our self-awareness, personal growth, and decision-making, and how establishing self-reflection as part of our daily routine can be one of the best habits to implement for this new year.
- How self-reflection is always an active choice, one that we must always train to be sharp and powerful. It’s not enough to be passive about it; self-reflection can actively become a part of every aspect of our lives.
- What the life of Jesus Christ can teach us about self-reflection, and how by following His example, we too can find the emotional solace we have always been looking for.

The Art of Gratitude, It’s Not Just For Thanksgiving Anymore!
Thanksgiving is a beautiful time of year where we get to look back and express our gratitude to all the people and things that have helped us on our path. The fact we have made this day into a national holiday is very special, because, in a way, we’re societally encouraged to reflect on everything and everyone that we should be thankful for.
Gratitude was never intended to be a one-day, mandated experience. Rather, gratitude is a gift and an art form that we can and should master. Taking time each day to practice gratitude can help us look inward and recognize where we are in our journey, identifying all the ways we have succeeded, as well as all the ways we can still continue to grow and learn.
BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU’LL LEARN:
- Why the act of practicing gratitude and giving thanks should extend beyond just the holiday season, becoming an integral part of our daily routine. Reflecting on all the reasons to be grateful is a key way to stay on the path to achieving our dream.
- The different ways in which mastering the art of gratitude is more than just a change of mindset or perspective, but rather, a way to positively impact our energy, attract more favorable circumstances in our lives, and give us anticipation for future blessings.
- Concrete strategies to begin mastering the art of gratitude in the pursuit of your dream, and different creative ways to practice gratitude as part of your daily routine.

Is the Time Right To Pursue Your Dream? (And, What To Do If It Isn’t) with The Skit Guys
When should I start pursuing my dream? When can I hop on the path toward success, and who should I bring with me? Life has many twists and turns, and you may not know when exactly to jump on the train toward your dream. But, understanding where you are and knowing where you want to be can be a guiding light to nurturing your success.
For Tommy Woodard and Eddie James (A.K.A. The Skit Guys), they got the answer when they met in high school. Throughout their lives and ministry, they’ve encountered the expected ups and downs, but understood the power of saying yes to your dream anyway. Putting your trust in your dream and in yourself is the key to success, and with that foundation God can make it true.
BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU’LL LEARN:
- Dreams only happen while others are dreaming. Of course, after a long day the only thing most of us will want to do is to sleep. But in knowing that following our dreams we’ll often encounter an uphill, countercurrent path, we should not let that dissuade us.
- At the end of the day, we’re all the perfect creations of God, and as such, each one of us could receive a vision from Him to follow our dreams. Remember that we all owe it to ourselves to go for it.
- Your dream might currently be nothing more than just a beautiful sentiment, but the Skit Guys are here to give you the encouragement you need to take that one step and begin the long journey to achieving your dream.

Saturday Nov 04, 2023
The journey toward achieving our dreams, like most things in life, has its ups, downs, twists and turns that change as time goes on. Much like the seasons in a year, we have seasons in our journey as well. It's important that we're able to recognize them, and know how to respond to these changes.
If things are going well in your journey, then continue down that same path. The opposite can be true as well, getting stuck in a routine that seems almost impossible to escape. I'm here to give you tips to shake yourself up, and start giving yourself permission to try something new.
BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU’LL LEARN:
- New strategies for "soul exploration" to really understand yourself and figuring out where you are in your journey to success.
- The importance of venturing outside your comfort zone and shaking things up once in a while. Moving out of the routine could be the only way to realize what you were doing before was not efficient or beneficial to achieving your goals.
- How to be less afraid of trying new, crazy things. What is keeping you from speaking your heart? What is keeping you from trying new things and opening yourself up to new and challenging worldviews?
