Are You Ready for Christmas?

Here's What Most People Miss

“ He who has not Christmas in his heart will never find it under a tree.”

― Roy L. Smith

Are You Ready for Christmas? Here's What Most People Miss

As Christmas approaches, there's a question we all hear constantly:

"Are you ready for Christmas?"

Get this...

I heard a sermon today that completely reframed this question for me.

The pastor said most people assume "ready for Christmas" means one thing...

Have you finished all your shopping?

His response?

"I'm always ready for Christmas."

Here's the thing...

We've turned a celebration of the greatest gift ever given into a checklist of tasks to complete.

The Real Reason for the Season

The sermon put things back in perspective.

Christmas isn't about what we've purchased.

It's about why we celebrate in the first place.

Jesus is the reason for the season.

Then another one of my pastors shared something that hit even harder:

"It's not what's under the tree — it's what's on the tree."

Think about that for a second...

Christ sacrificed His life on the cross so that we may have life — and have it more abundantly.

That's the real gift.

That's what we're celebrating.

Your Why Matters Every Day

As we go into this season of celebration, I want you to remember something...

The "why" behind Christmas is the same "why" that should drive you every single day.

Why do you get up each morning?

Why do you push forward in your business?

Why do you try to be better than you were the previous day?

The truth is...

When you remember your why, everything else falls into place.

My whole motto has been getting 1% better each day.

And if you can do that?

You will be successful.

The Challenge: Remember Your Why

This week, as you enjoy the Christmas season, I want you to do two things:

Remember why we celebrate — Christ's sacrifice and the abundant life He offers

Remember your personal why — the reason you show up and do the work every day

That 1% daily improvement adds up.

Keep pressing forward.

Have a great Christmas holiday.

Cheers!

💡 TP’s Marketing Lesson

These $10 AI Microsites are INSANE

The three rules for building profitable AI microsites are:

  • Pick Your Niche Well: Target high-ticket services (e.g., spray foam insulation) where a single lead is valuable to a contractor, but avoid hyper-competitive national niches.

  • Pick Your Area Well: Find specific geographic locations with low SEO competition. Look for areas where Google search results show "blue links" rather than heavy ads or a crowded map pack.

  • Prioritize Relationships: Pre-sell the concept by establishing a connection with a local business owner before building the site. This ensures you have a buyer for the leads as soon as the site begins to rank.

Core Philosophy: The internet rewards multiplication over perfection. Use the 80/20 rule to build many functional sites quickly rather than obsessing over a single perfect one.
