journey kind authority
I would rather be viewed by the reader as I'm just taking a journey with you, and here's what I'm learning, what are you learning? Oh, you do this better than me. Than to be viewed as kind of like an authority.
dream responsibility benefits
God has put a dream inside you. It's yours, and no one else's. It declares your uniqueness. It holds your potential. Only you can birth it. Only you can live it. Not to discover it, take responsibility for it, and act upon it is to negatively affect yourself as well as all those who would benefit from your dream.
encouragement leader inspire
A word of Encouragement from a leader can #Inspire a person to reach her potential
passion remembered
You will be remembered in life only for your passions!
commitment successful thinking
SELF-DISCIPLINE, more than any other personal quality I can think of, is the one thing that separates successful people from the unsuccessful. Think of all it encompasses: honoring commitments, promises and deadlines, keeping your life on schedule, being willing to go the extra mile... Self-discipline is essential to success. The alternative is a life ruled by emotions, and none of us can afford that if we're going to fulfill our purpose and realize our potential.
christian expectations life-is
The primary limitation in life is our low expectations for ourselves and others. When we expect minimum results, that's usually what we get.
leadership dream capacity
Leadership is evoking in others the capacity to dream.
moving people secret
The secret to success can be found in people's daily agendas. If they do something intentional to grow every day, they move closer to reaching their potential. If they don't, their potential slowly slips away over the course of their lifetime.
christian believe thinking
We tend to become what the most important person in our life thinks we will become. Think the best, believe the best, and express the best in others. Your affirmation will not only make you more attractive to them, but you will help play an important part in their personal development.
leadership character organization
Over time, is it easier or harder to sustain your influence within your organization? With charisma alone, influence becomes increasingly more difficult to sustain. With character, as time passes, influence builds and requires less work to sustain.
motivational team people
The more that people know how they fit on a team, the more they will desire to properly make the most of their fit and maximize their contribution.
leadership people flight
My leadership began to take flight when I allowed myself to press people to change-whether they thanked me or cursed me.
motivational running people
Leaders need to remember that the point of leading is not to cross the finish line first. It's to take people across the finish line with you. For that reason, leaders must deliberately slow their pace, stay connected to their people, enlist others to help fulfill the vision, and keep people going. You can't do that if you're running too far ahead of your people.
leader followers standards
Leaders must live by higher standards than their followers.
