Business Man, Karate

Teacher, Preacher, 

Outdoorsman, 

Speaker & Writer.

Yeah that’s me.  

“Inspirational but a little rough around the edges.”

Yeah that’s me too.

Guy who’s been through a bunch of stuff, thrown down hard repeatedly and still gets back up with enthusiasm to win.  Yeah thats me also.

Why write this blog? Because I’m supposed to.. / [Bosses orders]

[contents clarified by a TimeLine drop down menu to the right]

{Locate BEAMS on topics of interest in TAGS, also to the right}

———————————————————–

OH AND I DON’T LIKE THE TERM BLOG. SOUNDS LIKE YOU

HAVE MIXED BLACK, BOG & FOG. GROSS! SO I WRITE BEAMS.

Only use the word blog so you will understand me. So my

BEAMS are meant to be exactly that:  Beams of light to

strengthen and help your life. So I am BEAMing daily.

—————————————————————————————–

BEAMS =  Fresh, Clean, Original Brainstorms & Heartstorms, Word 

Game Creations, Unconventional reverence, Colloquialisms & 

earthy thinking, life celebration & Supernatural Messages that 

are rough around the seams, like I am. 

       This picture? It’s a seed. Turning into

a plant. It has been my personal logos for many years. Notice

it grows up and down. (Yeah, if we don’t grow a root; we are

not going to be healthy. So we have to grow down too!)

So anyway, read my blog & we will grow together like

this seed.  That’s what GUTS is all about!!!!!

Updates:

/// 1-10-2013 – Last year in Review: This is what the numbers

say about GutsIsTheKey Readership for last year; 2012.

http://gutsisthekey.com/2013/01/10/

/// 9-6-2012 I would like to thank those who have been with me

for a while now, at Gutsisthekey and welcome those who are new

readers. I try to keep personal topics coming, even though the 

professional writings have grown in number. Sales Tips are now

a regular feature of Gutsisthekey. But like all the rest of my

writings, even though professional; they are still reflectors of

me & “a little rough around the edges. Stay tuned as I will

release more of these sales tips, 100 at a time, as I continue

to write and release BEAMS of inspiration & courage.

/// 3-22-2012 Gutsisthekey is a reflection of me and as such, its

flavor will change with my life’s directions. A major part of my

life has been my sales career. Professionally, it has been the 

largest part of my life. I have had seasons where ministry was

full time But For The Most Part; my career has been sales related.

Like so many areas of life GUTS really is THE KEY, in a successful

sales career. I am making a major career move into Sales training;

particularly in the area of sales fulfillment.  This will benefit 

companies by improving the morale, performance and profits from

their sales dimension. This will benefit individuals by helping them

sell more; BUT MOST ESPECIALLY help them, by aiding in the 

satisfaction they get from their selling positions.  This is a 

big, positive change for me and I believe it will also be a big 

positive help to some of you. So look for the Selling Category to 

increase in size & content. But as always GUTS will be the Key!

///02-17-2012  Yes, I like old sayings. A personal fave is “Hindsight

is 20/20.” Meaning of course that we can always see perfectly 

what we should have been doing, looking back. So we have 20/20

vision when seeing what we should have done. Yet, when we take

what we have learned looking back & apply it to what is happening 

looking forward; we may not have 20/20 but we for sure have 

clearer vision, than if we don’t inventory from time to time.. —

So in order to enhance GutsIsKey going forward; I took a good look

back to see what I could learn. The results of this review can be found

at :

http://gutsisthekey.com/2012/02/10/twitter-review-1/ .

So anyway the bottom line is 1) I have confirmed that God still

wants me to do this thing & 2) that there were some things, I

needed to modify a bit about GUTS direction. But overall, you

can count on Gutsiskey to be an ongoing source of courage,

inspiration, motivation and sales help. Oh, by the way: Guts

is going to feature some guest authors from time to time.

Want more? Good. Read on:

///01-16-2012  Another old saying goes that “Time Flies when you

are having fun. I suppose. But I have found that Time flies no

matter what.  Since I began this endeavor in mid September 2011,

I have written over 90 BEAMS. In other words, I am averaging

about 4 & 1/2 posts a week. —– Thats  a lot of writing. – - -

Some things have changed since I first started gutsisthekey and

some things have stayed the same. Things that are the same:

the general idea behind the BEAM, the celebration of courage

and people with it, the addition of more acrostics and word games

that teach a lesson; and me being ROUGH AROUND THE EDGES.

Things that are different: See timeline below for significant previous

developments.  Also, recently I have been giving the existing

BEAMS (posts) a face lift. I added an additional category and

developed and incorporated 100 tags into the posts, to make

it easier for you to locate posts by the topics you are interested in.

The top 50 tags will be plain for you to see & pick other BEAMS

to read.  This re-edit has been a fruitful task & made my site more

useful to my readers. So guess what. I am going to do it again.

As I do this re-edit, I reintroduce these topical posts on twitter

but still continue to publish new BEAMS. For now, this process

will continue.  As “Time Flies,” I will continue to try not only to

offer you “fresh” content but to improve the content that is

already here.  More GUTS to you!!!!!!    Tim-

///12-25-2011 Funny thing about being a messenger

of God. He gets to choose when He will use you. He

can use you anytime He wants. But The Boss gets to

choose when & where you can speak for Him.

Sometimes you think you speak for Him and you’ve

got a ways to go. And other-times you are surprised

at the power of what comes out of your mouth, cause 

you know it was God doing the talking.  Did you know

Moses didn’t think he could talk for God but when

God chose to use Him; all he had to do was be willing.

Its kinda like that for me today.  ——- When you speak

for somebody who’s perfect; when you blow it = you 

did it. When you get it right; he did it. That’s just the

way it is.

{I’ve fought a lot of battles with God’s help. Many that people know about. Some that people don’t}.

ANYWAY, THIS GUTISKEY THING IS A GOD

THING. I AM SURE THERE ARE BETTER

MESSENGERS BUT I AM ALSO SURE HE 

CALLED ME TO BE ONE.  GOD SPOKE

THROUGH A DONKEY IN THE OLD

TESTAMENT. HE PROVES HE STILL DOES

TODAY; EVERY-TIME 

GOD SPEAKS THROUGH ME..

 ///12-3-2011   You may look forward to reading about 

life lifting lessons, I have learned from my Shotokan 

training in gutsisthekey.  I will be BEAMing about 

them, periodically.

/// 11-13-2011  So its clear by now that GUTS is the way I see

whats important in life & help you find the same; I hope.

But it is also, some pretty interesting word games & 

acrostics. Check out G.U.T.S. 1-69 on the drop down menu

to the right. >>>> Yes, you guessed it. There are still more

to come. Since I have just now released G.U.T.S. (16). 

/// 10-24-2011  By the way. I sell when the sun shines.

Also when it sets. Ok. Ok.  I confess, I am always selling.

So I suppose I should help you sell too. Read along in the

sales section & I will do just that.

Sell. Sell. Sell.

/// 10-14-2011 OK?

I’m making a little dent now in giving you a clue what

GUTS is all about. So now that you are getting the idea that

GUTS is mostly @ helping you; some ideas would be great.

 What do you need to find GUTS in??? I might just weigh in

on your subject, if I think I can help.  

Keep checking back for more G.U.T.S.
