In this episode of Tenaciously Human Podcast, we have Cory Carlson. He is a Christian, a husband, a father of three, a former executive, a speaker, an author, and a coach. As he advocates winning at home first, he talks about the early years of his career and how he navigated success, failures, and priorities in life.
He shared how God moved in his life, turned around, achieved success when he seek balance in work, faith, and faith.
Sneak Peek:
13:15 I think God works in mysterious ways in our lives. And you felt his hand in something like being fired, right? To me, that takes a lot of faith. And probably experience in trusting God. Were there other experiences in your life that led up to you to say, you know what? I trust God at this moment, even though I don't know all the facts.
15:49 You try, these big moments are pretty clear, but it sounds like you had these little moments along the way that you start to build [your faith. And then going forward, it's a lot easier to trust God because you've learned by degrees to.
17:15 I control the input. God controls the impact.
19:16 What does that mean in, in practicality, to put home first?
22:20 We've gotta go on dates with our spouse. Otherwise, we'll become roommates. We gotta be intentional with our kids and be their loudest voice to them. Otherwise, culture's gonna be the loudest voice.
28:52 Everything can be taken away from us. Right? As we start to accomplish things in our lives and, find some semblance of professional success, it's really easy to look back and think, I can trust my bank account because there are a million dollars in there, more than I can trust God, cuz he's intangible. Right? But that money can disappear. You get a certain number of followers on Instagram and then you get banned or someone kicks you off Twitter. So many of these things can get taken away really quickly. And we don't know really how intangible, how unstable our life is. The only things that we can rely on ultimately is God.
