“Man only likes to count his troubles; he doesn’t calculate his happiness.” - Fyodor Dostoyevsky
How do you calculate your happiness? If you knew you might have done something wrong or unethical, but nobody else would have ever found out, would you tell on yourself? Would your answer be different if you knew that by telling on yourself, it might cost you several hundred thousand dollars? Welcome to another edition of Sustainable Excellence Xtras! These periodic videos will tie into the principles I have outlined in my book, Sustainable Excellence, Ten Principles To Leading Your Uncommon and Extraordinary Life. In this video, we hear the story of professional golfer Davis Love III who gave himself a penalty stroke during an important tournament because he couldn't remember if he had placed his ball marker back in the original place, a few holes back. This penalty stroke caused him to miss the cut in the tournament, which might have cost him several hundred thousand dollars. What would you have done if you were in Davis Love III's place?

How does God’s love flow through you? How often have you bypassed small obstacles when you were in a hurry to get a large problem solved? When was the last time you experienced a problem in your life that you told yourself you would deal with at a later time? How long did it take that "later time" to actually happen? If the obstacle or problem is of a type that continues to reappear, we're usually better off spending the time to deal with it when it arises. Welcome to another edition of Sustainable Excellence Xtras! These periodic videos will tie into the principles I have outlined in my book, Sustainable Excellence, Ten Principles To Leading Your Uncommon and Extraordinary Life. In this video, we hear the story of a farmer who broke numerous plowshares on a large rock because he never seemed to have time to remove the rock from his field. When he finally committed to dealing with what he thought was this large rock, it turned out the rock wasn't really that big and he could have easily dealt with removing it years ago.
