God has been stirring something deep in my heart. A vision of believers stepping into the marketplace: not just to make a living, but to carry His light into places that desperately need hope, integrity, and truth. This isn’t about titles or platforms. It’s about obedience. It’s about showing up differently. It’s about allowing God to work through us in boardrooms, job sites, businesses, and everyday interactions. I’m sharing this vision in the video below, because I believe we’re being invited into something bigger than ourselves. The question is… will we say yes?

I live for memories like this. Being there for my kids didn’t happen by accident — it took intentional choices, saying no to good things so I could say yes to what matters most. Today my son is competing in the Tennessee Wrestling State Championships. This has been a many-years-long journey of early mornings, long drives, tough losses, hard wins, and relentless discipline. It’s bittersweet. We’re incredibly proud and excited for him… and we know this will likely be his last wrestling tournament as he prepares for college. My hope? That he leaves it all on the mat — with no regrets, knowing how far he’s come and how deeply he’s loved and supported. These are the moments that make every sacrifice worth it.

There are only 24 hours in a day. Not 25. Not 30. Not “when things slow down.” Every “yes” costs something. Want to launch a new offer? Something else will get less attention. Want to grow revenue? Something will require more energy. Want more time with your family? Something in your schedule has to go. The problem isn’t adding. The problem is what most entrepreneurs stop doing. Too many stop:• Date nights • Family dinners • Rest • Exercise • Church • Margin • Thinking time They stop the very things that keep them grounded. Then they wonder why success feels heavy. Why burnout creeps in. Why home feels tense. Growth isn’t just about what you start, it’s about what you protect. Before you add something new to your plate, ask yourself: “What am I about to subtract?” Be careful what you stop doing, Because sometimes the “small” things are the foundation holding everything up. What’s one thing in your life that must stay non-negotiable, no matter how busy business gets?

Real talk for my real estate investors & business builders for a second. Most of us live in hurry mode. Hurry to close the deal. Hurry to hit the income goal. Hurry to scale. Hurry to “finally make it.” And none of those things are bad on their own. Growth is good. Success is good. Providing is good. But Jesus said something that cuts deeper than strategy: “Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” — Matthew 6:21 That means your heart is always running toward whatever you’ve decided matters most. So if your heart feels: ⚡ always anxious ⚡ always behind ⚡ never at rest it might not be a time-management problem. It might be a treasure problem. Some of the deadlines stressing you out? You created them. Some of the pressure? Self-imposed. Some of the rush? Driven by comparison, not calling. Meanwhile: The peace you traded. The family moments you postponed. The quiet time with God you rushed through. Those are the things we don’t get back easily. Here’s what stands out: Jesus was never in a hurry but He changed the world. He moved with purpose, not pressure. With clarity, not chaos. Maybe success in this season isn’t about moving faster. Maybe it’s about treasuring the right things. If this spoke to you, share this with another business owner who’s been in grind mode nonstop. Sometimes we don’t need a new strategy, we need a reset.

Have you ever worked so hard for your family… and still felt like you were losing them? Chapter One of Lifeonaire opens with a moment that feels painfully familiar to a lot of people. When Alex said “Everything I do is for my family… and it’s still not enough.” A husband. A wife at her breaking point. Kids caught in the middle. And a man who truly believes he’s doing everything right—working nonstop, providing, sacrificing—yet somehow, it’s still not enough. From the outside, life looks successful. Business is running. Bills are paid. The house is full. But behind closed doors, the cracks are getting wider. What makes this chapter powerful isn’t the drama—it’s the honesty. This isn’t written from theory or motivational quotes. Steve wrote this from experience. From a season where he was busy building a life… while slowly losing the very people he was building it for. Chapter One forces a hard question many people avoid: What if the problem isn’t effort or money… but time, presence, and priorities? If you’re: A provider who feels misunderstood A parent stretched too thin Someone who keeps saying “things will get better soon” Or anyone who wants a better mindset early this year This book will hit close to home. And this is just Chapter One. . If you love books that make you pause, reflect, and rethink how you’re living—not just how you’re earning—Lifeonaire is for you.
