High Road Leaders Don’t Keep Score | MWM
Don’t Keep Score = John Maxwell’s new book, High Road Leadership, discusses the qualities of a high road leader. High road leaders live above keeping score. Keep track so you can make sure you give more than you take, but don’t try to control people by keeping score.

Competition Shows Your True Colors
https://youtu.be/M1UKKgg9Dzc
Our Greatest Gift = The opportunity to compete is an honor. Competing can come with a little pressure, but pressure is a privilege. It is our opportunity to show what we have within us. 



If you want to be successful, don't compete with every single person - instead, complete others. It's not always about winning first place but how many people you helped cross the finish line.

Idol Quotes

Quotes About Idols

  • I have no idols. I admire work, dedication and competence. --Ayrton Senna
  • For what is idolatry if not this: to worship the gifts in place of the Giver himself?
  • When anything in life is an absolute requirement for your happiness and self-worth, it is essentially an 'idol,' something you are actually worshiping. When such a thing is threatened, your anger is absolute. Your anger is actually the way the idol keeps you in its service, in its chains. Therefore if you find that, despite all the efforts to forgive, your anger and bitterness cannot subside, you may need to look deeper and ask, 'What am I defending? What is so important that I cannot live without?' It may be that, until some inordinate desire is identified and confronted, you will not be able to master your anger. --Tim Keller
  • Everyone should be respected as an individual, but no one idolized. --Albert Einstein






https://youtu.be/PKi8iELCMSI
God Comes First = If you put God first, then you find that all the other things you need in life, you get. If you put everything else first, you will leave out of your life the most important relationship you'll ever have. If you put God and His kingdom first, then He will take care of all the others things in your life.
