Out-Faithing

Each person’s mental health is so crucial to success in business. At Advantage Conferences, excellent mental health is indeed part of the improved Mindset that we refer to so often. Marginal or Poor mental health always results in non-success. The degree of mental health a person has and the level of success they can attain go hand in hand. Excellent mental health opens the door to success and allows the Champion to excel in the game in the long run.

“To the naysayers, the quitters, the ignorant, the fault-finders, the scoffers, the mockers, the non-believers, et al, I simply say, ‘I will Out-Faith you, Out-Believe you, Out-Work you, and Out-last you and the certain Out-come will be beyond Out-standing – nothing short of Out-rageous Victory – Tim Darnell

What factors contribute to excellent mental health?

One major factor is The Action Of Creating. – Creation is God’s ultimate work. He said, “Let there be Light” and there was. We come closer to being Godly by joining in His creative work. We are most alive when we are creating. We are most noticed when we are creating. We are most appreciated when we are creating. We are most followed when we are creating. We are most profitable when we are creating and implementing.

Also Implementing Sustained Unwavering Belief – THE FAITH FACTOR – Job 13:15 “Though He slay me, I will hope in Him.” Unconquerable Faith. Unquenchable Spirit. Undeniable Presence. These lead to Unprecedented Accomplishment.

An Incredibly Powerful Event

This was our third Mindset Mentoring Conference and without pause” the best yet!” It was an incredibly powerful event where our mindset has been reshaped by God through the Holy Spirit. What the Mindset Mentoring Conference offers through Advantage Conferences is a completely unique niche in the marketplace. No one in attendance could deny the indwelling of the Holy Spirit among attendees and speakers alike. There were simply no Luke warm attendees in attendance. It was intense because Laura and I spoke with and heard from dozens of passionate individuals who are sold out to the cause of Christ in all areas of their lives none of whom possessed even a hint of arrogance but rather demonstrated strength in humility! To hear God speak to us through all of the mentors, Advantage Conferences reps and attendees has had the most impact on us to date! The verse that came alive for Laura and I was Matthew 6:33, Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all these things shall be added to you. All of the mentors had this core thread running through their business endeavors and personal testimonies despite their seemingly diverse backgrounds and difficult situations.
The Lord has brought us into this place where we have relied on Him alone and He is building up a testimony for His glory through our lives. We have no D.O.U.B.T that the ongoing mentoring available through Advantage Conferences has been a shortcut to this realization. Two pivotal points for Laura and I that we have gleaned from the MMC have been: You need to hand your business, not just your personal life over to God and that walking in faith means believing in then walking through the doors Jesus has opened before us. Coming to this understanding becomes so clear when you surround yourself with such an integrity filled venue of highly successful Christ Centered Entrepreneurs
A highlight for us was when we actually hand wrote a commitment where we gave our business to Lord and placed it at His Altar. We have already seen the blessings of doing just that and know that God has been calling us to do that for some time now. I encourage you to step forward and be in attendance at an upcoming event for it is truly a profound and invaluable experience.

TeleMentoring That Benefits Christian Entrepreneurs

As a part of our teams Ongoing Christian Telementoring a couple hundred Entrepreneurs listen in every monday on a conference call called "TGIM" Thank God Its Monday call. Most people dread monday as the begining a the work week but the individuals on this call are excited to see what the week will have to offer. Its awesome the individuals on these calls are laying it out every single day not playing small ball and seeking biblical truth and clairity in direction. They are coming to a ever increasing realization of how to use their business endeavors as marketplace ministry.
There was question asked to Jack Weinzierl,who was hosting the call, how do I create a sense of urgency and hunger in this business if we are comfortable and all our needs are met. I included Jacks response along with the notes from that TGIM CALL.

We have a good life. Folks, I will just tell you right now, we are all called to do SO much more. It is not us four and no more. If you do not have that burning desire to do more, to be able to give more, I challenge you to get involved with some local charities or better yet, go on a mission trip where the invisible children live on garbage dumps. Do you see how that personal cocoon and comfort is a selfish mindset. We can and will do so much more to be different makers and not space takers. If you think that's all there is to go throughout our day, waking up early, commuting in traffic, going to work, coming home late, so that we can make just enough to afford our home, coffee so we can get up early for that job, clothes that we need to go to work, a car that we need to go to work, food that we need to go to work, and so on, you are mistaken. Think about it how ridiculous that really is. No wonder so many wake up in their 40s or 50s wondering what the purpose of life is. A mid-life crisis is really a "lack of purpose and passion"crisis.
What lie have we bought into? And a new Corvette is not going to satify that void. Never will.
I am reminded of a gentleman who shared at a recent conference I attended.
He asked all of us, "Do dogs like bones?" Everyone said yes. But he quickly corrected us that Dogs like steak, but they settle for bones. How many of us have been settling for bones? They don't dislike bones, they settle for them! What is it they you are settling for?
We were born to win, BUT we must choose to win. It involves you seeing yourself as God sees you and recognizing that your inheritance of the abundant life is here and now.
Here and Now. There is a sense of urgency, not emergency we all need to operate under in our businesses and out lives. We all have the same hours in a day and days in the week. This sense of urgency is critical. I look at someone like our new MMC-IV team member, Steven Walle from Ft. Worth and in his first two weeks he will have two MMC-IVs, two MMC-Is, and he called last week with some of the top names in ministry who he called that have agreed to link to his AC site. These names blew me away and when I asked how he got through, he states, I simply called them.
You may need a revelation in your life today. There's plenty of money out there folks. When we look at prosperity in the Bible it is more than just money. It means nothing lacking; wholeness; having everything you need and abundance.
God created You for Greatness! Live and walk the vision. We need to see what God has promised us and that is in His Word.
He said we are "Clothed with Power" It is not the spooky natural, but the Supernatural. We need to live the Word and we have to let God walk, control and lead our lives. If we see it in the Word, are we ready to live it out? When we do, we will have influence, we will be light because of who is in me. Our walk has to line up. We need to expect more.
"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart." (Jeremiah 29:11-13)
