‘Failure can be our friend. We learn from our failures, and we can use what we learn to help people. Instead of trying to impress our audience – which creates a gap – we should work to connect with our audience. When you talk about your mistakes and difficulties, and share how you overcome your challenges, it allows you to help and connect with your audience. We all have problems and we all make mistakes. Sharing these challenges will help you connect to your audience and the people lead. They will respect you for your wins, but they will love you for your failures.’ (J.Maxwell) Will you join me in sharing your challenging situations?

Wisdom: Idea #459
If you’re anything like me, all too frequently I need to stop and acknowledge mistakes I’ve made. Then I remind myself that ‘Mistakes are the stepping stones to wisdom. We learn from trial and error; we become wise by understanding problems.’ (L.Brown) Even with that I sometimes feel like I’m learning way too slowly. However, ‘In life, we may not always be victorious. However, with your strong desire to always compete, never give-up mentality, and a positive attitude, you will never truly know defeat!’ (J.Hawks) So join me in not seeing mistakes as defeat, but as a time of growth.

Results: Idea #458
Sometimes we confuse activity with results. ‘Produce results in order to be successful. Make something happen. Leaders are people who can produce results. If you can produce results for yourself, you can help someone else do the same thing. We teach what we know, but we reproduce who we are. What do you do well? Practice what you do well and improve it, then help others improve.’ (J.Maxwell) Look to see what results you can encourage in others, as that develops your own results.
