GOOD IS THE ENEMY OF GREAT - Jamie Rogers
Manage episode 473166150 series 3560403
Someone once said, “Don’t be afraid to give up the good to go for the great.” Jonathan Ive, a senior vice president of Apple Incorporated, modified the line of thinking in his famous quote, “good is the enemy of great.” The quote was used as the first sentence of the first chapter of the New York Times best-selling book “Good to Great” by Jim Collins. Today’s guest exemplifies all of these thoughts and sayings. Not many hunters can say they've passed up 150 inch whitetails with their bow, hoping they will make it through another season and grow bigger if they do make it. But he did and he learned in the process that sometimes our sacrifices pay off and occasionally they fulfill our biggest dreams. We’ll hear in today’s program that God’s dreams for us are often far bigger than what we have for ourselves and when we find joy in all God gives us, and give him praise for the good and not so good, its then that God gives us what we desire.
