The Determined People Podcast

Lots of pretty faces, but not always beauty within...

You get to write your own life story. 

There are people who don't believe they have a voice. They need advocates...someone to speak up for them while the rest of the world remains silent. Be their light in the darkness...

Most of us have to work. Our work should be fulfilling, not just a job. Today's message gives a little deeper insight to our work. 

It's all about what you are focused on.

Conflicts are unavoidable. We are unique people, with our own backgrounds, pain, frustrations and attitudes. But conflict does not have to destroy relationships. Actually, conflict resolution can strengthen the relationship.

The MSM and the politicians love to keep us divided. Do not fall for it. We are more alike than we are different.

Today is the first day of 2022. Reflect on the past year and look at how far you have grown. Don't beat yourself up, and don't beat yourself down. Look to the future with hope and anticipation.  Happy New Year! 

There is a creative side in all of us. Let it out. 

Excuses and blame do not solve anything. Take responsibility for your failures along with your successes. Draw the line!

Our Creator gave each of us a purpose, and He imbued us with the unique gifts we need to accomplish our purpose. The common thread we share is...all of us are searching for the meaning of life. Our lives matter...

I love the thrill of competition, whether a football game or the Olympics. Competition is a reflection of how hard we have worked. And it's a great reminder to always do our best. 

Let's make it a conscious effort to bring light into the lives of others. We live in a broken world, and there is a lot of darkness in it. We must strive to be positive influences. We won't help everyone, but we will help some...

Vic Feazell was the District Attorney in McLennan County when he discovered some inconsistencies which aroused his suspicions from the confessions of a drifter named Henry Lee Lucas. Lucas had testified to over 300 unsolved murders, including three in McLennan County. When Vic challenged the Task Force set up by the Texas Rangers, this set off a maelstrom of events which could have landed Vic in p...

Just as we would keep our enemies away and allies near, our thoughts are the same. 

Every experience we have in life prepares us for something else. We gain wisdom in the process. 

We want to be accepted, yet we can be conflicted about standing out as the unique individuals we are. Fitting in is acceptable. But fitting in doesn't bring out  who we are ...
