    If You Take It On, Stay With It

    One of Jacob’s Codes says this: If you take it on, stay with it. That does not mean a man never adjusts.It does not mean he never learns.It does not mean he never changes direction when wisdom calls for it. But it does mean he does not quit just because the work got heavy. A man’s character is built in the staying. Staying with his word.Staying with his family.Staying with his duty.Staying with the man he said he wanted to become.

    Listen Before Deciding

    One of Jacob’s Codes says this: Listen before deciding. That may not sound dramatic at first. But it can change a man’s life. Listen before you answer your wife.Listen before you correct your son.Listen before you judge another man’s failure.Listen before you make a promise your pride wants to make, but your character may have to carry. There is strength in restraint. There is courage in silence. There is wisdom in letting a moment breathe before you put your name on a decision.

    Carry Your Share Of The Load

    One of Jacob’s Codes says this: Carry your share of the load. That is not just about physical work. It is about life. Carry your share in the home.Carry your share in the marriage.Carry your share in raising children.Carry your share in business, friendship, leadership, and faith. A man who refuses his load makes it heavier for everyone else. And a man who carries more than his share, quietly and faithfully, becomes the kind of man others lean on when things get hard.

    My Ride With Butch

    Most folks think the West was divided clean. Good men on one side. Outlaws on the other. Truth is… the trail between those two can get mighty narrow. And once… I rode closer to the wrong side of it than I care to admit.
