Minute With Maxwell - Action

There are two types of people in the world: those who wait to feel good before they take action, and those who take action in order to feel good. The first type of person is constantly getting ready to take action, but they never actually do it because they're waiting for their emotions to tell them to. The second type of person understands that action triggers emotion, so they take action even when they don't feel like it. The first type of person is often unsuccessful because they're always waiting for the perfect moment to take action. The perfect moment never comes, so they never achieve their goals. The second type of person, on the other hand, is often successful because they're willing to take action even when they don't feel like it. They know that if they take action, they'll eventually start to feel good about it. The key to success is to learn to act despite your emotions. If you wait to feel good before you take action, you'll never get anyth...

Minute With Maxwell - Your Choices Make You

Choices are a part of everyday life. We make choices about what to eat, what to wear, what to do with our time, and who to spend time with. Some choices are small and inconsequential, while others have a major impact on our lives. The choices we make shape who we are. They determine our values, our priorities, and our relationships. When we make good choices, we are setting ourselves up for success. When we make bad choices, we may have to repair the damage later.

Minute With Maxwell - Be Memorable

John Maxwell talks about how to be unforgettable in every experience. He says that it doesn't take a lot to be unforgettable, but it does take intentionality. He suggests that we should always ask ourselves what we can say or do to set an experience apart from others. Maxwell gives an example of how he plans to make a nine-hour plane ride unforgettable. He says that he will have mentoring sessions on the plane, but he will also have the group do the Hokey Pokey. He believes that this will be a unique and memorable experience for the group. Maxwell's advice is simple, but it is effective. If we want to be unforgettable in our interactions with others, we need to be intentional about making our experiences unique and memorable. We can do this by saying or doing something that no one else has done before. Here are some specific tips for being unforgettable: Be creative and original. Come up with ideas that no one else has thought of before. Be personal and genuine. Connec...

Minute With Maxwell - Empowerment

Empowerment is a word that people desire in their lives. We all want to be given the freedom to make decisions on our own and to spread our wings. However, empowerment comes with accountability. If we are empowered to do anything we want without being held accountable, then things will not turn out well. Empowerment is a two-sided coin: there is the upside of being free and released, but there is also the downside of being responsible for our actions. As long as we keep empowerment and accountability together, we can create something that really works. In Summary Empowerment is the freedom to make decisions on our own, not just the freedom to do whatever we want. That accountability is the responsibility for our actions. That empowerment and accountability are two sides of the same coin.
