"Properly led, they endured incredible hardship, often without pay, without proper clothing, without proper food... 'It still rests with them to complete my wishes by adopting such a system of Policy as will ensure the future reputation, tranquility, happiness and glory of this extensive Empire.' The man is all in that passage - his humility, his pride, his sense of honour, his vision..."
said of, and by, George Washington

A Man...
"A Man is more than his wallet.
Providing is more than providing dollars and cents.
We are learning to see the more in the less.
"In not having a radio in our car - the less, we had a seven hour conversation with our children - the more..."
Identify what it is you want to accomplish as a family.
Look at the different areas of your life - "How can we accomplish what we want?"
Begin the process of making counter-cultural decisions.
Let go of peer-pressure.
Make daily decisions along your way to what your family wants.
Let God call the shots - ask Him "What is it You want me to do?"
Invite conversations with your spouse.
Don't drive your decision on the others.
Have the attitude... "Here's what I am willing to do... How can you join me?"
"Living with Less so Your Family Has More"

"One thing that tends to immobalise us is our doom and gloom...
We need to stiffen our spines and acknowledge our rich heritage."

Success
"With every level of success there is a degree of failure.
You don't want to make a decision in the middle of chaos or you add to it.
Until you manage your pain you are going to continue to inflict pain, blow up, bark, yell or scream."
