Session 1 with @johncmaxwell 

Those who are closest to you determine the level of your success. 

Questions for when choosing your inner circle:

  • Do they live out good values?

  • Do they have a high influence with others?

  • Do they have high giftedness?

  • Can they lead well and equip others? 

  • Are they a good fit for the inner circle? 

  • Can they produce outstanding results? 

  • Do they value and serve people? 

Legacy perspective includes both a clock and a compass. 

Value sowing more than reaping. 

In life we leave something and take something. Leave more than you take. Give more than you receive. 

My greatest joy is people’s success.

While in Colombia my wife and I had the opportunity to visit and climb The Rock of Guatape (El Peñón de Guatapé). Now, this is no ordinary rock, the rock towers 200 meters (656 feet) above its base. And we had heard it was going to be an experience going up and down it, but little did I know I was going to learn some lessons along the way. 

Lessons:

  1. I’m going to start with the obvious: Focus on your health. Several times while going up this rock, I felt like I was going to lose one of my lungs. Ok, maybe that’s extreme, but our health is important. I enjoy running and I encourage you to find an activity that you enjoy and get moving towards a healthier you. 

  2. Find the opportunity within the problem. Surprisingly enough, this huge rock sits on private property because the government, a long time ago, saw this rock as a problem and decided to sell the land around it. The family who bought the property saw the potential it could be and built around the rock in a way that now is one of the top visited places by tourists.

  3. Go at your own pace. I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to forget “the look” people would give me as they would pass me on our way to the top. To be honest it is so easy to fall into competition, not only while climbing but also in life in general. Sometimes we can think: if only I was stronger, smarter, or had their resources then could I do what they do, but remember this is YOUR journey. You have been wired and gifted the way you are on purpose. Let others inspire and motivate you but don’t you dare compare. 

  4. Rest if you must, but don’t quit. This one is kind of connected to the last point but how many of us are guilty of thinking of quitting, when really we just need a break? On our way to the top, there were signs that mark every 100 steps we would take. And I remember after the first 100 steps I was surprised to see that there was a “u-turn” door that would lead you back down. And believe me, I strongly considered going back down, but the other thought in my head was, I came too far to not do this. So I told myself, when we come across the next “u-turn” door I’ll take it down, there obviously has to be more doors. Well, guess what? There were no more “u-turn” doors. I truly believe that if there had been, I would have taken one of them, but that fact that there wasn’t was actually a good thing. It taught me that I can reach the end, if I rest and don’t quit. 

  5. You must give up, to go up. Some of the advice we had received in preparation for this excursion was don’t take too much with you, sacrifice the heavy and extra stuff in your backpack and just take the necessities like a bottle of water, comfortable shoes, sun glasses, etc… If you want to reach the top, it’s oftentimes going to require sacrifice. What are you willing to sacrifice, to give up, to live a life of significance and destiny?

  6. Your circle matters. If only you could have heard Zely and I that day, we sounded so funny alternating in encouraging each other. In moments when I felt like I couldn’t continue, she would say “Hey, you got this!” And in life, we need people who can encourage, challenge, and pull out the best in us. Who you surround yourself with matters and impacts your future. 

  7. The climb is tough, but the view is worth it. I won’t tell you how long it took, but I am proud to announce that we made it to the top! The first thing we did up there was sit down; but the second thing we did was take pictures. And as we stared out, I can’t lie, the view made me forget what I had gone through to get there. You may be going through something real tough right now, I want to encourage you and say “You got this and your view after this, is going to be worth it.”

7 Daily Habits to Help You Stress Less & Accomplish More

Summary: When you win today, tomorrow will take care of itself. 

Flip the Script- If you want to change your life, start by changing your story.

  • The difference between success and failure is the stories we tell ourselves. True or false, those stories become self-fulfilling prophecies.

  • Flipping the script will give you the courage to run toward rather than run away from the giants in your life. 

Kiss the Wave- The obstacle is not the enemy; the obstacle is the way.

  • You may not be responsible for the difficulties you’ve had to endure, but you are response-able. At the end of the day, your explanations are more important than your experiences. It may not be your fault. That doesn’t change the fact that you are able to choose your response in every situation. 

  • There is nothing wrong with asking God to change your circumstances, but His primary objective is changing you. 

Eat the Frog- If you want God to do the super, you’ve got to do the natural.

  • If you ever have to eat a live frog, it's best done first thing in the morning. Because you can go through the rest of your day knowing that the hardest task is behind you. 

  • What to-do items are you most tempted to procrastinate on? What goals have you had forever but not taken the first step toward? Give yourself a deadline and get started. 

  • You can’t just pray like it depends on God. You also have to work like it depends on you. 

Fly the Kite- How you do anything is how you’ll do everything. 

  • God is great not just because nothing is too big. God is great because nothing is too small. 

  • If you do little things like they’re big things, God will do big things like they’re little things.

Cut the Rope- Playing it safe is risky. 

  • The greatest risk is taking no risks. 

  • God won’t honor the goals that don’t honor him.

  • Lesson learned at 10,000 feet in the air: If you aren’t willing to put yourself in “this is crazy” situations, you will never experience “ this is awesome”  moments.

Wind the Clock- Time is measured in minutes; life is measured in moments. 

  • The ancient Greeks had two words for time- chronos and kairos. Chronos is quantitative- it counts seconds, minutes, and hours. Kairos makes the most of every moment. 

  • If you don’t control your calendar, your calendar will control you. 

  • Recognizes that every moment is a gift from God. 

  • Are you present? Are you attentive? Are you mindful? 

Seed the Clouds- Sow today what you want to see tomorrow. 

  • Take proactive measures today that will produce desired outcomes  tomorrow. 

  • Identify the daily rituals that have the highest return on investment and the daily habits that are high leverage points, and then prioritize them. 

  • The only ceiling on your intimacy with God and your impact on the world is daily spiritual disciplines. 

  • The greatest tragedy in life is that prayers go unanswered because they go unasked.

We often hear that God wants to do something new in our lives but what we much of the time we fail to recognize or remember is that there is a preparation on our part that comes before the new thing arrives.

In Matthew 9: 23-26 Jesus raises a little girl back to life, but not before He cleared the room from the crowd.

I believe today in order to receive the new, we must do the same, and clear the room of our hearts for what God wants to do.

We must clear the room of:

  • The Past- Your greatest barrier is not what’s in front of you but behind you.

  • The Noise- Don’t allow the crowd(noise) to influence you into mislabeling something as ’dead’ when it’s only ‘sleeping’.

  • The Timeline- Stop putting off for tomorrow what He wants to do in your life today. Soundtrack: One day when…

God wants to do something new in your life today but are you willing to prepare for it?

  • The quality of our life depends on the quality of our habits. 

  • The same habits will give you the same results.

  • Too often we convince ourselves that massive success requires massive action. 

  • Improving by 1% is often unnoticeable but meaningful in the long run. 

  • Success is the product of healthy habits. 

  • You get what you repeat. 

  • People reflect your behavior back to you. 

  • The most powerful outcomes are delayed.

  • Forget about goals, focus on systems. Goals are about direction, systems are about progress.

  • You do not rise to the level of your goals but fall to the level of your systems. 

  • You might start a habit change because of motivation but the only way you’ll stick with it is if you adopt it as your identity. 

  • Progress requires unlearning. 

  • Habit formation begins with trial and error.

  • Habits don’t restrict freedom, they create it. 

  • Every craving is tied to a desire. 

  • Habit loop: que, craving, response, reward.

  • You need to be aware of your habits before you can change them.

  • Have a habit scorecard.

  • Habit stacking: after one habit you do something immediately afterwards.

  • Include a time and place with habit.

  • Motivation is overrated, environment matters more.

  • Every habit is context dependent. 

  • A small change in what you see can lead to a big change in what you do.

  • Design your environment for success.

  • Be the designer of your world not just a consumer of it.

  • Every habit should have a home.

  • If you want habits that are stable and predictable, you need an environment that is stable and predictable.

  • Discipline people structure their life so that they don’t need to depend on self control. They spend less time in tempting situations.

  • The people with the best self-control are usually the ones who have to use it the least.

  • You can break a bad habit, but you’re unlikely to forget it.

  • Reduce the cues that begin the bad habit.

  • It’s the anticipation of a reward not the fulfillment of it that get us to act.

  • Habit linking: doing something you need to do with something you want to do.

  • The closer we are to someone the more likely we are to imitate their habits.

  • Walk slowly but never backwards.

  • To build a habit you need to practice it.

  • It’s not about the days but how many times you do it.

  • A habit must be established before it can be improved.

  • It’s better to do less than you hoped than none at all.

  • What gets rewarded gets repeated.

  • Never miss twice. Missing once is an accident, missing twice is the start of a new habit.

  • Too often we fall into the trap that it has to be all or nothing.

  • The problem is thinking that if you can’t do something perfectly, you shouldn’t do it at all.

  • Pain is an effective teacher.

  • Habits need to be enjoyable if they are going to stick.

  • The greatest threat to success is boredom. 

  • Fall in love with boredom.

  • Professional stick to the schedule, amateurs let life get in the way.

  • Habits + Deliberate Practice = Mastery 

  • Reflection and reviews helps you stay accountable for your performance over time.

  • Never stop making improvements.

  • Small habits don’t add up they compound.

  • You cannot separate leaders from people, and you cannot separate leadership from influence.

  • Who you are as a person will always determine how far you go and how much you accomplish as a leader.

  • Admitting that your leadership success depends primarily on you can be uncomfortable at first because it takes vulnerability and courage to look inward and face the fact that you might need to make some changes.

  • Leading yourself means pursuing personal growth. 

  • True humility is recognizing who you are-nothing more, nothing less-with gratitude and grace.

  • It’s been said that you teach others how to treat you by how you treat yourself.

  • Competitive sports are played mainly on a 5 1/2 inch court: the space between your ears.

  • I have decided to believe that everyone likes me unless they tell me otherwise.

  • Every leader feels dumb at times, but what you do with that feeling has the potential to make or break your leadership.

  • Comparison is the root of feelings of inferiority and insecurity.

  • The fastest way to kill something special is to compare it to something else.

  • Security in who you are makes you followable. 

  • Celebrating others also reminds you that other people are not really the competition.

  • Not breaking your stride in leadership is often a question of attitude rather than circumstances.

  • Integrity means you are the same inside and out, publicly and privately, today and next year.

  • Secure leaders tend to attract followers; insecure leaders tend to repel them.

  • The people you listen to should be those who prove themselves to be trustworthy, emotionally mature, and wise.

  • You will win with people not by bossing them around, but by building them up, listening to them, and embracing them.

  • I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.

  • Friend signals: increased eye contact, raised eye brows, head tilt, jutting out chin.

  • Friendship Formula: Proximity + Frequency + Duration + Intensity = Friendship

  • Your nonverbal (how you behave) and verbal (what you say) communications send signals to those around you.

  • Strangers are what friends are made of.

  • You never get a second chance to make a good first impression.

  • Because people often SEE you before they HEAR you, the nonverbal signals you send them can influence their opinion.

  • Smiling faces are judged to be more attractive, more likeable, and less dominant. A smile portrays confidence, happiness, and enthusiasm.

  • One way we signal to a speaker that we are engaged with them and that they should continue is with a head nod.

  • Just because your cell is ringing doesn’t mean you are obligated to answer it.

  • Observing foot positions/ behavior offers clues as to which group will accept a new member and which will be reluctant to do so.

  • You can make more friends in two months by becoming genuinely interested in other people that you can in two years by trying to get other people interested in you.

  • Empathetic statements keep the focus of the conversation on the person you are talking with rather than on yourself.

  • Words cannot change reality, but they can’t change how people perceive reality.

  • If you go looking for a friend, you’re going to find they’re very scarce. If you go out to be a friend, you’ll find them everywhere.

  • Commonalities connect people.

  • I recommend you use the “breadcrumb” approach to distributing information about yourself. 

  • Individuals who use humor and social encounters are perceived as more likable.

  • Who you associate with matters.

  • In American society, men and women often defined self-worth in different ways. In the most general terms men derive a sense of self-esteem and social status from their ability or potential ability to earn money, impress women, and on high priced objects like nice cars and real estate. Many women gain a sense of self-esteem and social status through displays of physical beauty, youthfulness, and relationships with others.

  • Extroverts get their energy from being with other people and seek stimulation from their environment.

  • Introverts expand energy when they engage socially and seek alone time to recharge their batteries.

  • People like to be complemented. 

  • Glory has a short expiration date; goodwill has a long shelf life.

  • When it comes to establishing and building friendships through verbal behavior, take your cue from LOVE (listen, observe, vocalize, and empathize.)

  • Pay attention when people speak so you are fully aware of what they are saying.

  • Words mean different things to different people.

  • People need to listen more than they talk. The proof of this is the Lord gave you two ears and one mouth, so you should listen twice as much as you speak.

  • Elicitation is the ability to obtain sensitive information from people without them realizing they are providing you with this data.

  • People have a need to be right, but people have a stronger need to correct others. 

  • Touching represents a reliable gauge to measure the intensity of a relationship.

  • Individuals lean toward people or things they like and distance themselves from those they don’t.

  • If the person you are talking with is looking at you but their torso and feet are pointing in another direction, he or she is not fully engaged.

  • 70% of all information is transferred between individuals over food and drink.

  • Anger triggers the fight or flight response, which mentally and physically prepares the body for survival.

  • The body takes about 20 minutes to return to normal after a full fight or flight response.

  • Good relationships, short or long term, take effort to bloom.

  • The Internet should be seen as a tool to learn more about the people you are considering to develop relationships with, whether that person is someone you meet face-to-face or online.

  • Whenever you’re going to post some thing online, always keep the sentence in mind: would I be embarrassed if what I am about to do with suddenly appear on the front page of my local newspaper tomorrow, in a month, or in 10 years?

  • The right relationship is worth the wait.

  • Scaling was originally developed as a term used in engineering.

  • For the purposes of this book, will use a specific definition: scalability is the ability overtime to sustainably grown your organization to whatever size your industry or sector will allow, in which market segments you choose to engage in.

  • There are two types of growth: exponential and linear. The key difference between the two is their primary focus.

  • Exponential growth is achieved by maximizing market share in the shortest achievable time span.

  • Linear growth is that which is achieved in any manner other than through a primary focus on maximizing market share.

  • Exponential growth can be planned or unplanned. Unplanned exponential growth Can destroy an organization if its leadership is caught unaware.Exponential growth can be

  • There is a difference between sustainable exponential growth (scaling)  and artificially increasing market size (flipping). 

  • Flipping can be a much faster way to grow a business, but it can be risky, as its aftermath is much less predictable.

  • Flipping is usually achieved by buying customers, either by undercut and competitors and pricing the product or service at a loss, or spending large sums on marketing and advertising, again at a net loss.

  • There are two main reasons for flipping: either to sell the artificially scale organization to a competitor or to attract investment.

  • The mindset between growers, scalers and flippers is different.The

  • There are two myths that the rail scalability: the myth of the magical start up in the myth of the mystical founder.

  • If your business stays as a start up for too long, it is guaranteed to fail. The only valid strategy for a start up is to stop being one.

  • Entrepreneurs have two key characteristics: they are driven by the need for freedom and autonomy; and they greatly trust their gut instincts.

  • To be a Scalable leader, apply the five golden rules to rein in your golden gut. 

  • The need to be focused and disciplined can frequently causes a visionary leader to be claustrophobic, leading to pent-up frustration, and ultimately a volatile explosion.

  • It’s important to find other people to do the boring but important task, even if you think you know more about it than anyone else.

  • Getting to scalability isn’t about putting perfect procedures in place, it’s about making good progress over time.

  • During early organic growth we say yes to everything, then deliver on our promise by flock balling our way to success.

  • It’s heroic leader ship is in scalable, enduring a stage of growth called white water, the organization begins to become overwhelmed by complexity, and starts to systematically make mistakes and drop the ball.

  • The new approach to decision-making is called high-quality team-based decision making and involves reversing the top processes that were so successful during early growth.

  • Begin by understanding that your org chart forms the basis for the machine for decision making.

  • We need to start by reviewing the actual org chart for anything that is incorrect, ambiguous or not working, and identify any omissions that are needed now or needed for us to achieve scalability.

  • Next, we need to re-defined the job specs and move away from heads (what the employee actually does) to hats (what is required of them for the organization to move forward and scale).

  • Finally, we need to review our meetings inventory to ensure each one is relevant, efficient and effective.

  • Once decisions are made, they must be upheld by the entire decision-making team. No one else in the organization should be able to get a dollar bill between you.

  • Decision making teams must be ruthlessly constructive. This means ensuring everyone is heard, provided they are communicating in a constructive manner.
