 The 6 most expensive words in business: We've almost done it that way. Leaders resist change afraid change experiment will backfire. reaching new markets with changes in marketing and operations. Lessons learned opportunities opened change experiments. New procedures carried out under controlled conditions or discover an unknown effect. Experiment, not a guarantee.

We can teach, we can't make people learn educating the mind not the heart.

 Many who are 1st will  be last. Matthew 19:30. A feat believed to be basically impossible. Shocked believing winners will keep winning  while the others will lose. It was a jolt when the disciples heard Jesus say. "how hard it is for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God Matthew 19:23. Jesus turned everything upside down. how could being rich (a winner) be a road block? Apparently if we trust in what we have, what we can do and what we are. Then it's not only hard but impossible to Trust God. The kingdom of God doesn't play by our rules. Many who are 1st Jesus says will be last. And, whether you're 1st or last, everything we receive is purely by grace by God's unmerited favor. Consider How you view people or How you view your own life. How does Jesus way of seeing so called winner and losers change your perspective? Winning and losing are turned upside down in God's kingdom. 

 Mental prayer is simply lifting our heart in loving conversation to and with God. A child to his loving Father God. Listening, we proceed to open our heart from our specific realizations. Mental Prayer is more of allowing God to work in us instead of working on God. It's elevating the time and place to have our heart to heart talk with God. It's more of our heart rather than an intellectual discourse coming up with 1 or 2 practical resolutions to put to practice. Putting our heart but not feeling alone... but of Love, as love is an act of the will. It is to be expected that there will be distractions, that's important as we go back talking to God with more Love. To pray well is to go to - Jesus through Mary and St. Joseph.

 Holy week- reenact and relive the suffering of Jesus in The Way of the Cross. Easter the culmination the promise of newness and life. Realizing the horror and magnitude of sin and its consequences in the world incarnated in the dying Jesus on the cross. Contemplating the despair on Holy Saturday. Except for the resurrection Holy Thursday- one of the most important, complex and profound days of celebration. In the last Supper Jesus offers Himself as the sacrificial lamb and institutes the sacrament of the Holy Eucharist teaching the apostles and their successors follow the same sacrifice in exactly the same way. Here He instituted the sacrament of holy order the priesthood . This 1st Mass Christ stresses the importance of humility of service and servant leadership celebrated yearly with priest washing the feet of 12 parishioners. Think? holy week ends on Good Friday.
