Love Is Tremendous
Charlie “Tremendous” Jones began his career in insurance in his early 20’s. Within one year, he was awarded a Most Valuable Associate Award, and within ten years, he received the company’s highest management award. He later went on to start his own consulting business, Life Management Services.
Charlie Jones isn’t all insurance. He has authored nine books and is a motivation and leadership speaker the likes of which no one has ever seen. He is most known for his book “Life Is Tremendous”. Charlie’s life is so tremendous that he has a passion for helping unfortunate children.
The story doesn’t stop there. Charlie is also a self-proclaimed expert on marriage relationships. After marrying someone who is completely his opposite and sticking by her side for 60 years, Charlie has learned a thing or two about the difference between love and commitment. Women need men who are going to hold them close through good times and bad no matter what.
What makes you different from the person you’ll be in five years, according to Charlie Jones, is the books you’ve read and the people you’ve met. Each of us is nothing more than what our experiences have taught us to be. The more you learn, the more you can become. Charlie encourages people to read just as he has always done.
So, what makes Charlie Jones a “Tremendous” Charlie Jones? It’s a nickname that embarrasses him, actually. When someone buys a new car or has a new baby, the first word out of Charlie’s mouth is, “Tremendous!” People started calling him Tremendous and the name stuck.
“Tremendous Jones” isn’t what Charlie would like to be called at all. He’d rather be called “Learning Jones” or “Thankful Jones.” Calling someone tremendous makes them sound like a big, tough football player or wrestler. Charlie Jones isn’t like that at all. He’s a sincere person with a heart full of love. He enjoys sharing his passion of helping people with others.
Charlie Jones grew up in the 1930’s, a time when everyone was poor. Although they didn’t attend any religious services themselves, Charlie’s parents always sent him and his siblings to church alone. It was through a dedicated Bible class teacher that Charlie’s devout faith in God was born. In turn, Charlie shows his godly love to poor children by inviting them to is estate home, complete with hot dogs, popcorn, Christmas presents (year round) and an amusement park.
If you’re not a Christian, don’t feel as if you need to water down your faith in the presence of Charlie Jones. He will never compromise his beliefs, and he expects no less of the people he meets. He believes everyone has the right and responsibility to look inside their heart and decide what is truth. He loves all people regardless of religion.
