Today's F-Bomb discusses why deceiving ourselves may temporarily relieve pain, but we will only be truly set free through discovery and acceptance of the truth.

Faith: John 8:32. Not all things are relative. There is absolute truth in the world. The earth is round and the ocean is blue. That isn't controversial. It's okay to believe that Jesus is the Son of God unashamedly.

Family: Our kids aren't capable of doing "whatever they put their minds to." Bek didn't have the size, speed, or skill to play football at ASU, and I told him that when he shared with me that playing Pac12 football was his post high school plan.

Football: "Jerry's World" is one filled with delusion. The teams that are willing to accept the truth, they are rebuilding and not a real contender, tend to fare much better than those who lie to themselves. See the Cowboys of the past 20-years for an example.

Finance: The 5 truths around retirement planning that can be overcome if addressed and strategized within a comprehensive financial plan.
