Reposition Yourself…
Posted by Lance Lawshe in Books, Business, Inspirational on October 25, 2007
A great man once said that, “Failing to prepare is preparing to fail.”
In reading T.D. Jakes latest book Reposition Yourself Living Life Without Limits is a step in the right direction. I fortunately came upon this book on a fluke, not that I would not have read it, but probably not as soon as I have now. It came at a time in my life when I think I most needed it. A lady just happened to have the book for a while and had not had a chance to read it herself. She decided to propose that I read it and report back to her. Immediately I jumped at the opportunity for those who know me best, know I love to read.
At first I was thinking I will surely send her a invoice for my services, but after reading the entire book in 4 days I have decided that this one will be on the house, for she has paid me by allowing me to read it and take in T.D.’s timely wisdom.
Well enough of how I got the book what you want to know is it worth the read, and I give a shout, “Hell yeah!” Reposition Yourself is an awesome read. Jakes’ with in his own creative way unleashes the inspiration to look at your life situation in a different light. He directs his readers to not count your life as over because of the circumstances you have come up against, and constantly encourages us to reposition ourselves for victory.
I know I have been vauge and for a purpose, I want you to read the book. Yes I will be giving the lady a 3 page report out if I can keep it that small, but that is what she asked me for. And believe me she has paid for it by letting me read this progressive and thought provoking book.
Thank you Bridgette
So what is new Lance?

This is asked of me so much lately. Frankly I am always tired of answering the mundane question. What’s new? My reply is usually, “Oh nothing much.” I am just not one to be over joyed with news. The latest gossip doesn’t interest me. Most CNN news these days is just continuous stream of propaganda of what people want you to think about the world you live in. And I am just tired of telling everybody my business. I know I know. “Dang Lance you are kind of harsh!” I know there are some well meaning people out there, but the majority of the time they are just trying to find out some more about you so they can include in there next news cast for the next person they talk to.
Today I am going to take a stand and reject all kinds of news. Well I have to get the weather. But what I am saying is when news (gossip) starts to come my way, I will exit the conversation by saying, “I hate the news, don’t you. So what are your plans for your future.” If they have no plans, goals, or vision, I guess they are not some one I need to be talking to. For people like that live in the past and never move forward.
So, Are you ready to move forward. Are you ready for tomorrow. A new day is here and I am ready to take it on.
God bless and stay away from the news.
