Devo:

From YHC’s high school classmate, Andy Jackson:

Choose your voices wisely:

One of my best buddies is a plumber.

Another is a cabinet maker.

I have other friends in real estate.

Some good friends in ministry and non-profits.

Others own businesses, wealth management and finance.

Some are executives in big corporations.

What’s the point?

During the Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday, I went down a rabbit hole researching legendary basketball coach George Raveling.

He was a leader in the civil rights movement, and actually owns the original draft manuscript of Dr. King’s “I have a dream” speech.

(Fascinating story btw – you’re welcome for the rabbit hole.)

Among Coach’s advice to his teams?

>>  Life is about voices & choices.

The voices you listen to affect the choices you make.

We must become tyrannical stewards of the voices we surround ourselves with.

We need voices that:

Push.

Affirm.

Motivate.

Challenge.

Encourage.

We need voices that make us better and take us where we want to go.

ACTIONS:

Do an audit of your calendar, texts, emails and phone calls.

Are the voices in your life taking you where you want to go?

Are they helping you become who you want to be?

Your voices shape your choices.

Choose your voices wisely, surround yourself with wisdom from a variety of sources, and watch how it transforms your journey.
