Humility is not given, but earned witih Brian Floriani, Founder of Bernie Book Bank and CEO of BUKU Branded

from Win At Home First

Doubt is a big piece of faith. It can be hard to understand why God calls us to do the things he does. But when we put our own wants and understanding of our needs after the calling God is presenting to us, big things can happen. This is why today's guest Brian Floriani says humility is given, not earned.  You can listen to today's episode at www.corymcarlson.com/podcast   In this episode, you'll discover…  Key trait to win at home and at work? (1:00) "Humility isn't given, it's earned." (2:00) How loss changed how he lives and leads. (8:00)  How God told Brian what he needed to do. (14:45) Brian's Bio:  Founded by Brian Floriani, Bernie's Book Bank was inspired by his father, Dr. Bernard P. Floriani, who, never without a book, read his way to a better life. His sudden death in 2005 moved Brian to start Bernie's Book Bank out of his garage in 2009. It was here where we began sourcing and redistributing books to local children, seeing each child as a "little Bernie."   Brian served as Executive Director of Bernie's Book Bank until 2018 when he transitioned into the role of Chief Advancement Officer. In his current role, he builds Bernie's Book Bank by cultivating strategic relationships with partners across all industries.   More on Bernie's Book Bank   What's Next?  NEW!!
