Ep 380 - The Boomerang Theory

Introducing the Boomerang Theory — the idea that what you put out comes back to you. Tim shares a childhood story about learning to throw a boomerang and how it taught him the value of practice, patience, and consistency. Whether it’s in faith, relationships, or personal growth, success takes steady effort — not just being a “weekend warrior.” The love and energy you put in always comes back. Thanks for listening — and keep throwing your boomerang!
