Picking Up the Marbles in the Days of Your Life

Written by Anita Agers-Brooks Leave a Comment

When he said it the first time, chills ran up and down my arms. When I heard him speak the second time, I resolved to pay closer attention to the marbles of my own life.

Lt. Colonel Danny White
Lt. Colonel Danny White

Lt. Colonel Danny White, founder of Lead with Liberty, leadwithliberty.com, knows adversity. On a personal level, Danny knows adversity in ways many of us can’t imagine. His story of life-changing tragedy is gripping both in its dramatic turns, but also in transformational truths. As a retired Marine who led others on a consistent basis, he understands the strategies necessary to get ahead, while keeping your personal life in tact. He’s succeeded and he’s failed, but through his insights, you can avoid his mistakes.

Want to make the most of your life? Listen in, while we explore Danny White’s answers to three basic questions, designed to guide us through the treacherous territory of adversity.

1. Marbles play a big role in how you inspire yourself and others to wake up and experience life with fresh energy. Can you tell us how picking up marbles can change our lives?

2. You are a husband, married twice, proud father of a bustling brood, an author, and a national speaker. Would you share a brief recount of your family situation, and how your personal story infuses the messages you share with the world?

3. As a former Marine, often called to influence influencers, you know a lot about tactics and strategy. Can you offer some insights you’ve taken from that experience, that help you lead civilians in overcoming everyday adversity?

We were honored to have Lt. Colonel White as our guest on Engaging Life and Leadership. Author of A Widower’s Walk, national/keynote speaker, as well as fulfilling his greatest roles as dad and husband. You won’t want to miss this program — Danny White is proof, that one person can change your life. Adversity doesn’t have to defeat us, but it will transform us.

How many marbles do you have left, and how are you using them?

Isaiah 30:20 (NLT)

Though the Lord gave you adversity for food and suffering for drink, he will still be with you to teach you. You will see your teacher with your own eyes.

About Anita

Anita Agers Brooks

Hi, I’m Anita Brooks, and I’m passionate about educating, inspiring, and encouraging today’s influencers. (This means you.) I help individuals and organizations tend their biggest dreams!

I’ve spent over two decades studying human personality, and how it affects everything we do. I’ve been accused of mind-reading, although I’m not truly clairvoyant. 

Professionally and personally, I solve people problems. Through motivating messages, training, and coaching, I’ll show you how to improve communication, develop stronger relationships, improve finances, and find deeper fulfillment.
