5 out of 5 doctors agree that 10 of 10 people will die. Did you know your soul is immortal? Where will YOU spend eternity? Heaven or hell? Please listen, pray and share. Once you understand that WE are ALL sinners who fall short of the glory of God, we must turn to the Lord Jesus Christ for forgiveness by repenting of OUR sins and trust in Him alone. Profess Jesus as your savior.

Dr. Charles Livingstone Allen was born June 24, 1913 and died August 30, 2005. He wrote more than 40 books ministering to the depressed, anxious, forgotten, abandoned and truly lost souls to guide them to Jesus Christ. He was born in Newborn, Ga., son of Rev. J.R.

In 1960, Dr. Allen moved to Texas to serve First Methodist Church, in downtown Houston. He served there for 23 years, and during that time it became the largest Methodist Church in America. His service was televised every Sunday morning, and he was a featured columnist with the Houston Chronicle.
Dr. Allen preached all over the United States, and on all five continents of the world. He was the author of over forty books, including God’s Psychiatry, which has sold nearly two million copies worldwide.

He brought a host of souls to the Lord, and is in fellowship with them today. He is buried in Forest Park Westheimer Cemetery.

“Lincoln didn’t do great work because he solved the problem of his depression; the problem of his depression was all the more fuel for the fire of his great work.”
The great ones are challenged the most, because THEY can handle it. Giving up on life is too easy and no matter how bad things get, the world is a better place because of YOU and someone loves you more than you know.
Are YOU one of the great ones?
Are you challenged more right now more than ever?
Promise to keep fighting and keep pushing forward, AMERICA, your family and your friends need YOU more than ever!
Can you do the Lucky Sevens challenge above in less than 30 minutes? Let us know YOUR time and if you record it for us to post to YouTube, we’ll send you a Free TapouT T-Shirt.

Please enjoy another “Positive Affirmation for Kids” with Logan John Cimins, 5-year-old son of Life Coach and Grapplers Quest founder, Brian Cimins
“Every Day in Every Way, I’m Getting Better”
– Logan Cimins inspired by American Monk, Burt Goldman
This great positive affirmation is inspired by one of my mentors, Burt Goldman, aka “The American Monk”. It can be used at ANY age, especially for people who’ve been sick or with some type of long term illness.
People who consistently wait for others to ask, “How are you doing?” or “How are you feeling?”, just to launch into a 30 minute conversation about how much pain they are in or how bad something hurts or aches. Complaining and reliving an “old injury” is just magnifying the problem to you and the listening party.
Complaining doesn’t allow you to focus on your progress, however big or small, you are just wallowing in your pain. I broke my back in a martial arts competition on December 2, 2000 and was nearly paralyzed. As a martial arts event promoter, I refused to let my scary story give a black eye to the sport. I set out to completely recreate my mental frame of mind to help others deal with challenging situations, something life always seems to deliver.
Even if you are in pain, please realize EVERYONE “suffers” in their own way. By responding with a more uplifting and inspirational response, even if you are in pain when the person asks, you will quickly accelerate your own healing, even if just in your mind – at least it’s a start. Start healing in your mind first and YOUR body will follow. You must believe in this, if you really want to live pain free.
Give it a try, start today and repeat this Affirmation and Mantra every day for 30 days, “Every Day in Every Way, I’m Getting Better”.
Until next time, BE positive 🙂
With your success and happiness in mind
Your Strategy Coach,
Brian J. Cimins
We can all be Super Heroes to our kids, but you got to be there first. Logan and Kaylee have been home sick this week but I finally got to really focus on them, just as a Dad.
Balancing our work time with family time can be really challenging. Try not to be so hard on yourself – one day they will understand that you gave your heart and soul to both career and family…and it took everything you had – and THEY ARE WORTH IT!
Working from home has always been a challenge – but I finally am figuring out how to make it work and not be the absentee, “always busy” Dad who didn’t have time for his kids.
As parents, we all must realize that there will come a day that if we work all the time and avoid our most important job of all – being parents our children will not become the same amazing people they could and should become.
At the end of your life, images of your children, wife and loved ones will flash to you, not bank statements and piles of money. I’m not saying don’t try to be successful, I’m saying don’t let the endless pursuit of fame and fortune blind you from uncovering your true purpose in life beyond the game of Monopoly that we all enjoy playing so much. Don’t be afraid to dig deep into your subconscious mind…there’s an infinite universe inside your mind.
