RESULTS

Quote - ' ...begin with the end in mind.' - Stephen Covey

You're going to love this;

Be result oriented.

Know what it is you want.

See it.

Can you believe you're going to achieve it?

How are you going to get there?

Work from the end, not the front.

See the end. How does it look?

Now see where you are.

Now see the road between you and the result.

This is the road you have to take to get there.

Write that down. It's called strategy.

It's your road map to a great result.

Stick to the plan.

REIGNING IN LIFE

Quote - 'People who deny responsibility for their own actions use a language that portrays them as passive victims of circumstance'

Jesus Christ sits at the right hand of the throne of God.

Because He reigns, I reign.

He rules, I rule.

I'm in Him. He's in me.

He rules over sickness and disease. I rule over sickness and disease.

He rules over the devil. I rule over the devil.

I act in His Name.

His power is the same as it ever was! And His power resides in me.

PEOPLE

Quote - 'He that wins souls is wise' - Proverbs 11:30

Whatever you are doing, remember you're doing it in a people world.

You're not building a great organisation, company or church - you're building a great people.

People will build whatever you are building; if you build them.

Win people all the time.

Especially the volunteers for their wages are recognition, appreciation and honor.

Don't neglect to pay everyone his or her due.

Recognise, appreciate, thank, encourage and honour everyone.

Building people is your business!

The best chef can only do so much with a lump of meat.

Whether you'll come back is up to the people who serve you.

Clients will even put up with mistakes if the people part blesses them.

Contact, communicate and connect. Win people!

CRITICISM

Quote - 'Through good and ill report I still rushed on
Nor felt the fire of popular applause
Nor feared the torturing flame in such a glorious cause.'
- George Whitfield in a letter to John Wesley

One of the most difficult challenges for a leader is the inevitable criticism from being out front

The more successful you become the greater the criticism will be.

People clothe jealousy, prejudice and envy with legitimate sounding criticisms.

Henry Louis Mencken said 'criticism is prejudice made plausible.'

If you care too much what others think, you will be hurt.

Care less what others think.

You cannot make everyone happy.

Stay true to your course.

Nothing of worth is achieved without opposition.

Winston Churchill declared;
'Opposition is the natural environment of effective leaders. Resisting extreme reaction to criticism is the key to steadiness at the helm. One of the deciding marks of a great leader is the way he handles criticism. Criticism is easy, achievement is difficult.'

PUNCTUALITY

Quote - 'Make your now wow!' - Mark Victor Hansen

If you're always early you're never late!

Time is more valuable than money.

People pay money to save time.

When we're late we steal time from others and ourselves.

Tardiness is the tap-root of a host of character faults.

My lateness says 'I don't care about you; I'm more important than you; you can wait for me; I'm disorganised; I'm undisciplined.'

It's not so much about time management but about managing ourselves.

Love others. Be on time. Even early! From now on.

THINKING

Quote - 'God has given us a ... a sound mind.' - 2 Tim 1:7

God asks for your heart, not your head.

Keep your head. You Use it.

You have sound reason, good judgement and clear discernment.

Make great decisions.

Think with your head, not your heart.

Feel with your heart, not with your head.

Don't let the two become confused.

A warm heart and a cool head work well together.

Don't let your heart become cool and your head become hot.

MOTIVES

Quote - 'Blessed are the pure at heart, for they shall see God...' - Matthew 5:8

If our motives are pure, our spirit will remain positive.

The pure in heart easily 'see' God.

The impure in heart are easily cynical.

Impure motivations produce botched results.

We change our motivations from;

a. Selfish Amition to Self Denial
b. Power hunger to Servanthood
c. Gain to Giving

Our commitment to Christ means we choose to do the right things for the right reasons and let the chips fall as they may.
