What is Success to You? | MWM
Find Your Purpose = Success is knowing your purpose in life. Until we know why we are here, how can we know if we are successful? Our calling or mission demands that we know what our purpose is. You can find your purpose by figuring out what your passion is and what your strengths are. There are two great days in a person’s life: the day they are born and the day they discover why. 

Your Highest Return Comes from Your Strengths | MWM
Always Be Growing = Success is about growing to reach our maximum potential. God’s gift to us is our potential, and our gift back to Him is what we do with that potential. Discover your purpose, and know what your strengths are ... Then focus your time and energy on those strengths. Grow in the areas where you are gifted. Grow into tomorrow.


Until You Know Why You’re Here, How Can You Know If You’re Succeeding? | MWM
https://youtu.be/V6hVuNKZ93I
Understand Your Purpose = What is success? Success starts with understanding your purpose. You can’t know if you are succeeding in life, until you know why you are here. You can discover your purpose by thinking about your passions and strengths. What are you gifted in? What are you passionate about?


The Only Guarantee the Next Day Will be Better… | MWM
https://youtu.be/Koq6INroexI
Always Be Growing = Success is about growing to reach our potential. God’s gift to us is our potential, and our gift back to Him is what we do with that potential. Discover your purpose, know what your strengths are, and focus your time and energy on growing in those areas. You get the highest return in life from doing what you are good at. 


Invest Value in Others and You Will Both Reap Rewards | MWM
https://youtu.be/TKsj2GF1FAw
Be Externally Focused = Success is sowing seeds that benefit others. Are you constantly, intentionally adding value to other people? Think of others. Be externally focused instead of internally focused. There is a reaping and harvest that will come back to you when you pour into others. Invest in yourself so you can invest in other people. 

================


Success isn't a destination we reach in a day.
Success isn't a destination we reach in a day. It's a journey that requires consistent effort and perseverance. So let's be intentional about our goals and choose to embrace the uphill battle, knowing that each step brings us closer to our dreams. 




Change Is In The High Road = Life change really happens on the high road. When you take the high road, you turn the other cheek, are kind to those who are not kind to you, and go the second mile. When you travel through life, travel high, travel long—go the second mile.

Take Action Today = A decisive person takes action, and a person who acts does very well. Action is where success is. Try to make a decision today that you have been procrastinating. This is your day!



Statement of Strength for Leaders...Decisions = Today’s Statement of Strength: “It is our decisions not our conditions that determine our quality of life.”–John C. Maxwell

How Can a Leader Become More Decisive? (Maxwell Leadership Executive Podcast)
John Maxwell teaches that one of the killers of momentum in your business is not making decisions in a timely manner. If you wait for other people or circumstances to dictate your direction, you slow momentum and put yourself and your business at risk.
Do you struggle when it comes to making timely decisions in your business? 
Whether you are naturally decisive or not, leaders need to develop a decision-making process aligned with their organization's goals and values.





How far are you willing to jump? = If you want to see growth in your life you have to be willing to make a change. In order to make that change you need to be willing to take action - how far will you jump to get started? You have the capacity to make that decision! Don't just make it, take it with action.
