1. Life is short. Make every day count for God’s glory.
2. Don’t take yourself too seriously.
3. Ministry is a marathon, not a sprint.
4. Jesus cares more about the church than you do.
5. You can’t please everyone…so why try?
6. People will criticize you. Quit whining. Get used to it.
7. Three months from now, you won’t even remember most of the things that are bothering you today.
8. You can’t do it all. Stop trying.
9. God called you because He is good, not because you are.
10. If you blame yourself for the bad results in ministry, you’ll likely also take credit for the good results.
...stop by later this week for 11-20

Great list (so far).
Our community group is reading his book, Confessions of a Pastor.
I look forward to hearing how you guys like the book. It's on my list of books to get.
This really blessed me. I am planting a church with the Southern Baptist Convention in Shreveport Louisiana.
I feel believe that the vital points brought out in this list are so true.
