This is my favorite productivity app right now. I’ve tried several other to do lists like OmniFocus, Things, Todoist, but SwipesApp is the most simple tool on my phone that I actually use on a daily basis. Here are my 5 reasons why I love SwipesApp.
1. It’s SIMPLE to use
2. SWIPING is fun
3. SCHEDULING to another day/time helps you take the clutter out of your mind
4. TAG to label
5. Sync from phone to computer
I’m thankful for wise Christian men who have mentored me over the years. Some of them I have never met in person but their writings and talks have deeply shaped my faith and character. People like Eugene Peterson, John Wooden, Dallas Willard, Frederick Buechner, Chuck Swindoll and Andy Stanley.
Today I want to talk about “organic apprenticeship” because we believe this is the best way to raise leaders. We don’t raise leaders through heavy training or through leadership development programs. We raise leaders by looking for people who are watching what we do and are eager to repeat it.
My palms are sweaty. My heart is pounding. My knees are shaking. I know I’m going to fall. I just know it. I’m just anticipating how hard the impact is going to be. I look down the ramp and it looks really high up. I’m contemplating just backing down. Then I hear my son screaming, “Just do it daddy!”
“Nathan, slow down! I can’t keep up with you.” Panting and profusely sweating, I tell my 6-year-old son to wait for me as we hike up the canyons. My legs are burning and I’m in immense pain as we descend from the hike. But I act tough so my son won’t think his dad’s a total loser. I think to myself, what is wrong with my body? I was a star athlete in my adolescent years playing handball, kickball, dodge ball and even a one-time limbo champ. Now I could barely do a 2-3 mile hike without having to take a couple Advil’s and incessantly complaining to my wife about how much pain I’m in. Wives can be so unsympathetic to men’s physical pain since supposedly nothing compares to the pain of bearing a child.
