leadership mistake notion
Don't buy into the notion that mistakes can somehow be avoided. They can't be.
christian book community
I hold conferences, and the result of that was that the secular community also started picking up my stuff, and pretty soon they wanted more. So I realized I could not only minister to the Christian community, but I could also minister to the corporate community. So my books started crossing over, and then I began to intentionally have them cross over.
firsts persons first-person
The first person you lead is you.
people religion needs
You have to live with the people to know their needs, and you have to live with God to know how to solve them.
heart leader tape
To measure a leader, put a tape around his heart, not his head.
moving
God doesn't move until we move first.
inspiration character moments
It's true that charisma can make a person stand out for a moment, but character sets a person apart for a lifetime.
add significance values
SUCCESS is when I add value to MYSELF. SIGNIFICANCE is when I add value to OTHERS.
positive thinking growth
If we're growing, we're always going to be out of our comfort zone.
dream people giving
Why would God send people to our church if we don't have a great dream? Why would God give a multigifted, multitalented, and multifinancially wealthy person to a church if the biggest thing you are going to do is paint the restrooms next year? That's bad stewardship.
lying wrestling successful
The secret of successful people lies in their ability to discover their strengths and to organize their life so that these strengths can be applied.
trying want endure
If you don’t try to create the future you want, you must endure the future you get.
motivational exercise persistence
The whole idea of motivation is a trap. Forget motivation. Just do it. Exercise, lose weight, test your blood sugar, or whatever. Do it without motivation. And then, guess what? After you start doing the thing, that's when the motivation comes and makes it easy for you to keep on doing it.
thinking opportunity helping
What am I doing with the gifts that have been given and the opportunities that are mine to make things better for others? I think it's always - success has to be beyond the person who is themselves working for personal success. It's also got to be helping someone else.
