Draw "Your" Line

Posted 21st February 2014 at 06:26 PM by Jeremy Barker (The Official Blog of Jeremy A Barker)

If you haven't ever reached this point, you will at some point in your life. What am I talking about?

The point where you have finally had enough, unsatisfied with the way your life is going to the point where you make the change needed to take the reins and make your life what you desire it to be.

I am not talking about individual separate lines for each aspect of your life. You can get tired of your job, the place where you live, and many other individual points...

Patience (Enough Said)

Posted 13th February 2014 at 10:20 AM by Jeremy Barker (The Official Blog of Jeremy A Barker)

I think after just saying the word "PATIENCE" I could stop and we all would throw up our hands. Fact is, this is something that each of us deal with every day and it is tough. (for me anyway) For me, patience is one of the hardest "life lessons" I will ever face.
