As a CPT certified personal trainer I tell people THROW AWAY YOUR SCALES.

As a CPT certified personal trainer (yep I can do it all) I
tell people THROW AWAY YOUR SCALES. They are the enemy of success in a real and
correct program to change your life style and lead a healthy life.

The better way to measure change is how you feel. How your
clothes fit.  Eating correctly and proper
exercise will ALWAYS get results.
Chasing the weight number on the scales is, at least in the first few
weeks or months, counterproductive.

 

For a few reasons but the best one is a pound of loose porous
fat is shaped differently than a pound of tight hard muscle.  So as we exercise and eat right the fat goes
away but in the beginning the actual poundage is replaced my adding muscle.

 

That muscle takes up much less room so we are losing inches
while keeping the same number on the scale.

 

After a while that effect does change and the muscles get
tighter. The Chest and Butt RISE and tighten. The shoulders pull back and the
belly quits bouncing around as you descend the stairs.  The Triceps (the bottoms of your arms) quit
waving at the same time your hand does and your chin is no longer part of your
neck and then you look at the scales… You will see the number going down.

 

Still not the best way to measure your maintained success as
the reverse of the above tell the story before the scales do.  One reasons DIETS do NOT WORK for LONGTERM
weight loss is we eat less to lose and when we hit the target we go back the way
we were and then we get fat again.

So toss the scales, get to the right size. Throw away all the
clothes bigger than that size and when they get tight, DON:T BUY MORE, Get back
to work!

 

Dan the Trainer man!

 

I did weigh in this moring and go to see two things I have not seen in a while. MY FEET!!!!!!  So far in about 6 weeks I have went from a 44 waist to a 38 and from 198′s to 185….  The hardest part…ONLY ONE FREE DAY!!!!!

Practice what I preach!

Interesting day. Leaving for the gym I noticed the glove box was open and the contents on the seat and floor. Gym bag was missing. Thinking it was some crackhead looking for change I went around the block looking for where they looked thought it and dumped it but to no avail. Went to K-Mart to get new gym shorts and shoes and stuff 100 bucks later…..
Got a thought to pray for the person who took the bag. Here I am able to just go get more and they were in a bad spot. Thought more that maybe they needed the clothes and shoes and headphones and flip-flops and towel and deodorant and underwear ect. Glad I could help. Prayed for all homeless people and hoped they would be ok.

Later as I returned home I talked to my neighbor lady and found out they dumped my bag across the street and the other neighbor though it was trash and threw the stuff away. My glasses and inhaler were broken but all else was there (except the lock and the actual bag) all covered in grime and coffee grounds from being in the trash can. Thank God. I am Off to the washer.

My car was unlocked and no damage and all most was recovered …

Praise God for letting me practice almost EXACTLY what I preached this Sunday….
Will you take a minute to say a prayer for those who stole from us on my street this morning? ALso offer a prayer for the victims of their crime. Ask God to help them and to provide for them both the criminal and victim.

How does this scripture tie to the book’s purpose…

Open our eyes, oh Lord, and let us See your Direction
Interesting that todays reading, the actual scripture for the book title, is
about correcting another believer.   It is always enlighting to me to see what
they were actaull talking about when they wrote the scriptures as opposed to
what we have decided to attach the passage to today. Sometimes it ties in nicely
and sometime not very well.

What do think: How does this scripure tie
to the books purpose of reaching out the world?

Matthew 18:15-20

Correcting Another Believer

15 “If
another believer[a] sins against you,[b] go privately and point out the offense. If the
other person listens and confesses it, you have won that person back.

16 But if you are unsuccessful,
take one or two others with you and go back again, so that everything you say
may be confirmed by two or three witnesses.
17 If
the person still refuses to listen, take your case to the church. Then if he or
she won’t accept the church’s decision, treat that person as a pagan or a
corrupt tax collector.

18 “I tell you the truth, whatever
you forbid[c] on earth will be forbidden in heaven, and
whatever you permit[d] on earth will be permitted in heaven.

19 “I also tell you this: If two of
you agree here on earth concerning anything you ask, my Father in heaven will do
it for you.
20 For where two or three gather
together as my followers,[e] I am there among
them.”

Thanks,
Pastor Dan Renfro

Did you ever tell a waiter “A million dollars

Did you ever tell a waiter “A million dollars!” to answer his/her question of: “What would you like today?” ‘Funny guys’ do it all the time. What can I bring you? A million dollars!

While funny (to me, NOT the Waiter, I am sure) it is fairly honest though. I’d take it if he brought it! So What do new members to your church want?

TRANSFORMED LIVES. Why is that important to know? It is not a DUH! Question because we rarely say that when doing Church planing exercises. We say….Clothes, Food, Classes, Programs, Nursery!

TRANSFORMED LIVES…… Take another look at last paragraph to this chapter if you get a minute. Those questions he asks seem especially relevant to me today.

So how do we get one, or suggest one?
2 Corinthians 5:17

17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. 18 Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation, 19 that is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the word of reconciliation.
20 Now then, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were pleading through us: we implore you on Christ’s behalf, be reconciled to God.

Thanks,
Pastor Dan

Top Training from Top Trainers



Pastor Dan Renfro
I have been blessed to work for
companies that provide the best training from the top people in their fields. In
addition I have attended seminar after seminar, read all the books and been able
to TEST the programs in real life.
Following is a list of the trainings I
have taken and tested.
I am able to mold a program of coaching and or
training for you that will work because it is designed around these excellent
resources.


Ken Blanchard

In 1981, I
got out of the US Army and the I joined a company based in Houston, Tx. that was
using a new management training program led by a new comer on the leadership
training scene. The name of it was the “One Minute Manager” by the now
legendary Ken Blanchard.  I was lucky to be learning as this training was
being developed. In 2006
in Hollywood Florida attended a two day seminar with the Blanchard company on
Situational Leadership and again in 2007.  These seminars are now less than
$2000 for the day. I strongly suggest you attend one if you can.   Learn
More

Dr. Ken Blanchard is the cofounder and Chief Spiritual Officer
of The Ken Blanchard  Companies®, an international management training and
consulting firm that he and his wife, Margie Blanchard, began in 1979 in San
Diego, California. In addition to being a renowned speaker and consultant, Ken
also spends time as a visiting lecturer at his alma mater, Cornell University,
where he is a trustee emeritus of the Board of Trustees.


Patrick
Lencioni
Learn to Trust each other

The absolute nicest most sincere person I have ever seen
doing  training is Patrick Lencioni author of the “Five Dysfunctions
of Team
” book and program. He just cares about the people he is training and
about their success.  A man of faith and principles he gives a message of
practical application is a real and changing world. I have been to two
consultations sessions with Lencioni and have used the Five Dysfunctions with my
management teams for the past 3 years. Patrick Lencioni started The Table Group
in 1997 based on a principle he had been unconsciously developing since
childhood.  Growing up, Pat became fascinated with the world of work as he
listened to his dad describe the frustrating dysfunction and chaos within the
company where he worked for 40 years. Though he didn’t know it at the time, he
would eventually dedicate his career to helping organizations, and the people
who work within them, become healthier and more successful. Take some times to
look at all his books.

Jim Collins

Every manager in
business school has read his books. In 2003, I was in a room with 40 people as
Jim Collins told us about his life and his book that was turning two
years old that day.  He explained to us why good was the enemy of great.
Jim Collins was candid about his not so glorious childhood as well as his
very celebrated success’ with “Build to Last” and “Good to Great”.
He explained his books  had made so much money from helping others with this
book he was able to endow his own chair at the college where he does research.
Question and
answers time went a long while as you can imagine. Jim changed what business
people thought was ‘good enough’ in 2001 and revolutionized management training.
To learn these truths from the Jim’s own mouth was a priceless experience.
Built to Last, his previous top selling book was
  the defining
management study of the nineties, showed how great companies triumph over time
and how long-term sustained performance can be engineered into the DNA of an
enterprise from the very beginning. But what about the company that is not born
with great DNA? How can good companies, mediocre companies, even bad companies
achieve enduring greatness?



Jeffrey Gitomer talks about what it’s all about; RINGING
THE REGISTER!

One of the
trainings I attended a few years ago  was the most intense most fun and the
easiest to implement came from the guy who wrote the “Sales Bible”.  Not
just Sales training but the WHY & HOW of SALES. Jeffrey Gitomer is
the kind of guy who while training the 700 managers in my group  walked up and
down the aisles, talking with, the people he is training instead of,
talking at them, from the stage.  Seven hundred managers is a LOT to try this
with but he did it and did it well. He was voted one of the most fun and most
easy to implement training by those same managers. AUTHOR. Jeffrey Gitomer is
the author of The New York Times best sellers The Sales Bible, The Little Red
Book of Selling, The Little Black Book of Connections, and The Little Gold Book
of YES! Attitude. All of his books have been number one best sellers on
Amazon.com, including Customer Satisfaction is Worthless, Customer Loyalty is
Priceless, The Patterson Principles of Selling, The Little Red Book of Sales
Answers, The Little Green Book of Getting Your Way, The Little Platinum Book of
Cha-Ching
!, and The Little Teal Book of Trust. Jeffrey’s books have sold
millions of copies worldwide. OVER 100 PRESENTATIONS A YEAR. Jeffrey gives
public and corporate seminars, runs annual sales meetings, and conducts live and
Internet training programs on selling, customer loyalty, and personal
development.

Dan Renfro has attended, in person,
training sessions from the world’s best trainers


World Class Training from the top People in the the training
field.

THE CEO of JCmyHP, Pastor Dan Renfro says; “I have lived
every area I teach
“.  He continues,  While I
have read the books and been trained by the authors in these areas the
coaching you’ll receive
comes from those trainings and my experience, my winning experience. I have been
the top manager, trainer, sales person everywhere I have ever worked.
I have
been blessed to work for companies that provide the best training from the top
people in their fields. In addition I have attended seminar after seminar. This
page has descriptions of those trainings and trainers.


NON-Commissioned Sales! they said it could not be done, BUT we did
it!

NON-Commissioned Sales! In the early 90′s an unheard of
electronics’ company from Minnesota  with a few stores decided to go national.
Again I was lucky and blessed to be part of this expansion. Richard M. “Dick”
Schulze
the founder and CEO was large and in charge and went from a regional
player to the leading the largest Electronic Retailer in the world producing
44.5 Billion Dollars in revenues in 2008! As Best Buy developed the “how to” to
selling in a non commissioned world.

My
regional manager was Brian J. Dunn who is today the CEO of Best Buy.  Our region
led by Dunn was the best in the company.  Our District was the best in the
region and my store was the best in the district so my definition Best Buy was
the best in the world and my store was the best in Best Buy that made us the
BEST SALES TEAM IN THE WORLD!!!!.  Over the next few years my teams won
every contest and produced the highest gain over budget in revenues. We flat out
the most dollars in warranty sales in the companies history no matter what the
competing store size was.


Marcus Buckingham

Best Buy was a case
study for Marcus Buckingham while he was with the Gallop Organization and
he later became the featured Speaker and trainer for Best Buy for several years
after writing his first book “First Break all the Rules” which by the way
is a saying that goes back to 1994 at Best Buy. Best Buy  used to say about
conventional wisdom “If it ain’t broke, Break IT!“  Great Learning’s come
from breaking away from conventional wisdom ‘getting individual’ with people in
training and development. Marcus did coin the phrase that any intelligent
manager (there are many who are not) today will recognize “when he said you
must “TREAT PEOPLE DIFFERENTLY“. To do so you must know your employees and what motivates them.  I have been in
trainings with Buckingham with Best Buy and Barnes & Noble totaling five
times covering different books and all of his findings on how to help people
succeed on business and in life.  I strongly recommend all his books and
currently teach from them at every coaching session and seminar. We
must let people what they do best everyday!
