DEVELOPING YOURSELF
Life is what you make it, so is your journey. If you want to live out your dreams then focus on developing yourself to achieve them. Believe in yourself!

Start With Yourself
When it comes to life and leadership, one of the wisest pieces of advice comes from John Maxwell: "You have to start with yourself." At first glance, this idea might seem counterintuitive. We often associate growth and progress with working on our relationships, our careers, or our finances. However, John says that these achievements are all rooted in intentionally developing ourselves. After all, we cannot give what we do not have. John teaches that success begins with understanding ourselves and knowing our purpose, vision, and values. We must become the kind of person who can fulfill those ambitions and bring them to reality. 
So, in this week’s episode, John Maxwell shares some simple and timeless truths about why we need to start with ourselves. Then, Mark Cole and Traci Morrow discuss John’s lesson, how they’re applying it to their own life and leadership, and why starting with yourself can even build resilience during the toughest leadership seasons.
