Showing results by narrator "Greg Olney" in All Categories

The books in this series have been written because Greg Olney cares about the Commitment to Change that comes about in each person and the failure that might get in the way of great change. Negative results may not happen right away. It may take years as the body builds up a resistance to the harmful effects of the poison we put into our system. Businesses and families work the same way. We put up with pain because we’re afraid of the alternative. Instead of kindly addressing issues, we wait for arguments to boil over when it’s harder to exercise self-control.

I’m revealing these distractors so that everyone can see them for what they are and from where they draw us. If it’s from good that we’re distracted, these distractors can be known, which will allow each of us to re-focus on what’s good. If it’s from bad that we’re distracted, that distraction may be beneficial. Let me make something abundantly clear. Distraction is not aimlessly wandering. There is aim in distraction. The purpose in distraction simply aims AWAY from something else. That process is not aimless.

These books have been written about change management. While it remains important in these books that great change (in quality rather than actual size of change) happens in each person’s life, this book is overtly Christian in its presentation. Come learn how people have rebuilt after tragedies of war and death experiences. We’ll see how they’ve been restored to a place that they now are used by God for other people. I believe the only true way to be restored is to know God and be known by Him.

"In this provocative book, Greg Olney uncovers the movement between the Status Quo and Commitment to Change. Olney reveals his goal for each reader to move quickly, but surely, through transition to the desired change rather than linger in transition. He has created a five (5) step model to transition individuals and companies and uniquely explores common pitfalls while defining what will happen if the Status Quo continues. The concepts brought up in this book generate strong provocation because the world tells the transition story differently. But the book doesn't stop there."
