College and professional athletes spend long hours dissecting opposing teams to increase their chances of winning. Smart business people will spend weeks investigating potential mergers to raise the probabilities of success in [...]
Community – Be Thankful for Your Shepherd

their peers is a lot like going to the dentist. No one is really excited about a visit to the dentist. It’s not something we look forward to but we go out of necessity, and usually only when we simply can’t avoid it [...]
