“I can’t control the storm. I can’t control the weather.” So what do you do when the day you planned falls apart?
In this video:
– THE FISHING TRIP: I planned the greatest trip ever, and the weather wouldn’t allow it
– THE TREE: a dark storm at 6:30 AM, and a tree shoved into my car that I couldn’t stop
– WHEN CONTROL COMES HOME: how the same need to control showed up with my wife
– THE RESPONSE PLAN: flat tire, bad weather, a lost hotel reservation. Decide now what you’ll do.
If you’ve ever let one thing going wrong ruin the whole day, this one’s for you.
Storm Ready Men helps men rebuild identity, marriage, and purpose after the roles they built their lives on fall apart.
