Philippians 3:7-8 NLT
I once thought these things were valuable, but now I consider them worthless because of what Christ has done.

4 Ways to make sure you’ll always be #winning:
1. Realize you’ll never have enough!
Ecclesiastes 4:8 NIV
There was a man all alone; he had neither son nor brother. There was no end to his toil, yet his eyes were not content with his wealth. “For whom am I toiling,” he asked, “and why am I depriving myself of enjoyment?” This too is meaningless— a miserable business!
2. Surround yourself with ‘lesser’ people!
2 Corinthians 10:12 NLT
Oh, don’t worry; we wouldn’t dare say that we are as wonderful as these other men who tell you how important they are! But they are only comparing themselves with each other, using themselves as the standard of measurement. How ignorant!
3. Keep meticulous score!
Luke 12:15 NLT
Then he said, “Beware! Guard against every kind of greed. Life is not measured by how much you own.”
4. Develop an attitude of entitlement!
Job 1:21 NLT
He said,“I came naked from my mother’s womb, and I will be naked when I leave. The Lord gave me what I had, and the Lord has taken it away. Praise the name of the Lord!”
