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.

EQUATIONS

Quote - 'And just as you want men to do to you, you also do to them likewise.' - Luke 6:31

One plus one equals two.

Do things by the numbers.

Be methodical.

Be systematic.

Don't be overwhelmed by the problem.

Do each step of a methodical, systematic solution.

Do this and then that.

See this person, then that one.

Do a kindness to someone and they will be endeared to you.

Be unkind and they will be estranged from you no matter how polite they are.

Even though each step may not seem to achieve much.

All the steps will ultimately add up to a positive solution.

BUILDING ON STRENGTH

Quote - 'To thine own self be true, and it must follow, as the night the day, thou canst not then be false to any man' - W. Shakespeare

Build on strengths, not on your weaknesses.

Know what your strengths are and build on those.

Know your weaknesses and let others do that.

What are you good at?

Not what do you think you are good at, or what would you like to be good at, but what works in your world?

This is God's gift in you.

Accept it, nourish it, develop it, maximise it and do it!

Just because something works for someone else, doesn't mean it will work for you.

Learn from others but don't get hijacked.

Structure your organisation around the gifts in peoples lives.

Build on strengths.
