Why you should embrace the word ‘elite’

posted on June 3, 2015

I am a Christian. That doesn’t mean I’m perfect, but it does mean there are certain rules and principles that govern my life, such as tithing.

CJ Stewart (right) recently made his coaching debut on the popular USA Network show, “Chrisley Knows Best.” Here he is with (L-R) Cameron Giles, Todd Chrisley and Grayson Chrisley (bottom center).

Tithing states that I’m supposed to give the first of my very best to The Lord – be it my time, talent or my treasure. The tithe is the best of my time – not the left over part of it. It’s the elite part of me that God wants – not what’s left over.

I have far too many people who tell me, “My son’s not elite enough to work with you.”

That’s really unfortunate to hear. That’s like me telling God that I really want to serve him, but I’ll wait until I’m perfect, and then sign up for the Christian Jubilee. God knows I’m not perfect. That’s why He has a Divine Plan that allows me to be in relationship with Him.

In the same way, the destination for my clients is “elite.” They aren’t there when they first come to me, but God has blessed me with a Divine Gift that allows me to direct my clients from where they are to the destination they want to be.

Tip of the Week: Stance 

No, I can’t unequivocally promise an outcome, but I can unequivocally promise that if you don’t have a target your aim will always be off.

Being elite is not a destination- it’s a mindset. And it’s a mindset you must have to be the best ballplayer, husband, father, businessman, Deacon, etc., you can be.

So, if you want to work with me, here’s the deal: God doesn’t want your leftovers – and neither do I.

#DropTheMic

Remember: Good hitters don’t work hard; they work smart.
