12.17.08 The Producer, Proverbs 17

"A wise servant will rule over a disgraceful son, and will share in the inheritance as one of the brothers."

Proverbs 17:2

"Ari Gold" Jeremy Piven of "Entourage"

I am a fan of the HBO Series "Entourage". Actor Jeremy Piven plays "Ari Gold" the "make it happen" Hollywood Agent who loves his clients and seems to pull a "rabbit out of hat" in crisis moments. "Ari" is a mensch who plays the game so well, without sacrificing his ethics. He is not beyond "sticking it" to those who deserve it, but he goes to war for his "Entourage" and comes out smelling like a rose. Not appropriate for this blog, you can do a google search on "You Tube" for "Ari Gold" and catch a few of his stunning quips and view of life in the trenches of Hollywood.

Proverbs 17:10 - "A rebuke impresses a man of discernment more than a hundred lashes to a fool."

Have you been rebuked lately? If the answer is no, then you are doing something wrong. People will tell you, you can't do something if you are doing something. They will blow you off if you are trying to make something big happen. They will ignore your e-mails if you have something to say. They will fail to return your call if you have a great opportunity. Rebukes are subtle. Don't let that stop you.

On Mission, On Assignment, and in the ZONE!
