 |
| This photo here of the moment Joel was born captures my favourite moment of the last 9 years! |
As Winston Churchill said in one of my favourite lines in history:
"History will be kind to me. For I intend to write it."
No matter what lies in my path in the year ahead, I am going to make this year my best yet!
Now, to celebrate my 29th year of living on this planet, I want to give you a chance to be blessed! So, today, I am giving away a $15 voucher to Amazon.com! Courtesy of the great Entrepreneur and Author James Altucher.
To win, all you need to do is leave a comment at the bottom of this Blog, either with a link to your Twitter Profile, Facebook Page or your email, and you'll go into a draw. I will then announce the winner later tonight.
(Note: When placing your email, do it inconspicuously. IE. james (at) jamespreston (dot) org. So spambots don't pick it up.)
So while you get ready to do that, here are 9 of the most important things I have learnt in the 9 years I have been a Twenty-Something. I will expound on each point later this afternoon, with a nice Video Blog, too!
1. My family is my most valuable asset in this life.
2. God is SO much better than we could ever imagine Him to be!
3. Jesus wants US to change this world with His Father's Kingdom before He even thinks about coming back.
4. Having a baby is the best thing that can ever happen to you. But also the most challenging.
5. Achieving your dreams is easier than you think. It just takes strategy and energy.
6. Entrepreneurship is the best way forward for the new economy.
7. Tertiary education is important but not necessary to your success.
8. Carbs are killing us. Fat isn't.
9. If you want to keep a relationship, you have to work on it.
10. The Kruger National Park is the most beautiful place on planet Earth.
Now, this list is debatable and arguable. I learnt thousands of things in these past 9 years. I learnt more in the last 9 years than I think I ever have. It's just really difficult to narrow down which of the things I learnt belong in my top 9. I know my Top 3 are certainly solid and wouldn't change.
As mentioned, I will expound on these a litte later this afternoon. Until then, have a blessed day! And don't forget to enter the draw for the $15 Amazon Voucher by commenting below!
Thank you for being you.
