WHAT DOESN'T KILL YOU MAKES YOU STRONGER

Looking back over the last 25 years, it's surreal at how much adversity there was to overcome for success to happen.

Quoting Josh Howerton: "When God wanted to make David a king, He didn't give him a crown; He gave him a Goliath" (personal communication, May 25, 2026).

A lot of times when you feel like God is breaking you, He's actually building you.

It doesn't feel good at the time, but reflecting back (with a weird type of fondness), you can identify certain experiences as the watershed moment that takes you to the next level.

Be grateful when you encounter chaos on your way to success - you learn strength; or storms where you learn to grow; or pressure that teaches peace.

Stop asking why it’s hard: It has to be because weak foundations crack under blessings.
