Discover Your "Message-to-Market" Sweet Spot Your business thrives at the intersection of your experience, education, and expertise—what you’re called to release to the world and what people actually want. Nailing this sweet spot ensures you're building something purposeful and profitable. Bonus: When you align your work with your worship, it’s not just a job—it’s a calling. Systems Build Wealth (Yes, Even Heavenly Ones) Forget the "God will take care of it" approach. Even divine plans need solid systems! Whether it’s funnels, workflows, or even meditation routines, your systems are the foundation. As James Clear says: “You don’t rise to the level of your goals; you fall to the level of your systems.” Truth bomb, right? The 3 M’s of Business Growth: Maker, Mistakes, Mentors Israel credits his growth to his Maker (faith), mistakes (learning curves), and mentors (wise guides). The takeaway? Leverage all three—pray, learn, and listen to those who’ve walked the path before you. Support: Stop Flying Solo Christian entrepreneurs, hear this: Me, myself, and I is not a scalable strategy. Build your executive team and structure support systems for your clients and yourself. The right people + processes = kingdom-level impact without burnout. Speaking is Your Superpower Whether it's a TEDx stage or a Zoom room, speaking unlocks growth. Not sharing your message? Your business might be stuck because your voice is silent. Start with smaller stages if you’re new, but remember—your inheritance often flows through the stage. So get out there and share your brilliance! 🎤✨ A Coach is Not There to Do, but to Empower True coaching is about guiding others to become the person they need to be to achieve their goals—not doing the work for them. Think of Jesus coaching Peter to cast the net; He didn’t fish for him, but gave the direction for success.Know Your Lane: The 4 Levels of Service The breakdown of coach, consultant, strategist, and advisor is a game-changer for understanding roles in service-based industries. Each level offers distinct value: coaches empower, consultants solve problems, strategists implement plans, and advisors align vision with intuition. Defining Your Purpose The 4 Questions of Purpose to reveal clarity:What do you love? (Your gift)What do you hate? (Your mission to destroy)What makes you cry? (Where you bring joy)Who or what annoys you? (An enemy of your purpose, often tied to pride)Destiny is in the Details Purpose isn’t found by copying others (cue the Saul’s armor analogy). Instead, it comes from seeking personal revelation—picking up your own “stones” to release what’s uniquely yours into the world.Pride: The Ultimate Purpose Blocker Pride is the kryptonite of purpose. Jesus washing Peter’s feet wasn’t just humility in action; it was a...
