What is Your Contingency Plan? | MWM
Plan Ahead, And Prepare For Future Challenges = Anticipation is a key trait of forward-thinking leaders. It is about being proactive instead of reactive, preparing for future challenges and opportunities. This mindset allows you to lead with confidence in uncertain times. 



Purpose Leads to Anticipation
Anticipate Your Impact = Be filled with anticipation in reaching your audience. If you anticipate that your writing will help people, make a positive difference in their life, and lift them to a higher level, it will create momentum. Anticipation, more than discipline, will help you be successful in writing.


Have High Expectations = When you can’t wait to deliver a message, the audience can’t wait to hear it. People can tell when a speaker loves what they talk about. Next time you prepare a lesson and get ready to teach, feel good about it, believe the best about it, have high expectations, and anticipate that it will be the best message you have ever given … and it will help you help people.

MWM | THE HIDDEN ACCELERATOR
Relationships Are The Hidden Accelerator To Success = In Chris' new book, From Drift to Drive, he discusses relationships—the hidden accelerator. Everything we do in life requires relationships. If you want to grow and go to the next level, you need people who are going to push you forward. Because of this, you need to be intentional about who gets your time and energy.



Be the Rising Tide | MWM
Lift Up Others = The goal in any relationship should be to make the other person feel more important. The relationships in our lives are gifts, and it is our responsibility to steward them. Lift up the people in your relationships, and make the relationships around you better. 



Do You Add Value or Take it Away? | MWM
Connect With Others = Relationships—how we connect with others—are key in our success. Relationships have the power to resolve the negatives in our lives. Are you a plus or a minus? Do you add value to others or take value away? If you want to do well with people, add value to them. That is what relationships are all about. 


https://youtu.be/SIzWgdGpzoY
Be Someone's Confidence = Many people we come across in life are insecure, and we want to help give them confidence. Being secure and confident in yourself is an asset in helping other people. When you can convey this to others, you can pass it on, and others can experience that security when they are around you, thus further growing and developing a solid relationship with them.


https://youtu.be/FJfdr6LXI_Y
Compliment Others = People want to feel special, so compliment them. In the first 30 seconds of meeting someone, say something positive about them, to them, and say it in front of their friends. Complimenting others is the best way to make others feel like they are special. 


Be The Hope = People want a bright future, so give them hope. Whoever you come into contact with, you want to be able to express to them something positive that is in their life or that can happen in their life. We see what we look for—so help people look for hope. 


https://youtu.be/Z453IOFOr6w
Listen and Understand = People need to be understood. There is nothing that makes someone feel understood like another person quietly listening to them. Listen to people, don't talk and interrupt them—let others speak and be heard. If you want to feel understood and known, find someone to listen to you.


https://youtu.be/2jgqCLw_X94
Don't Just Give Directions—Walk With Others = People lack direction—walk with them. If you want to help a person, you don't just give them directions, instead you take the journey with them. Exceed their expectations and walk along the journey with them. 

Connect With Others = People are selfish, so if you really want to be able to help someone, you need to speak to their needs first. By listening to people and letting them talk it out, you can then talk to them—not correct them or change them—by letting them know you know how they feel. Connect with others on their ground. 

How to Help Others Win Big | MWM
Help Others Win = We all want to win, but most people do not win on a consistent basis. We don't want to continually lose our way to success, we need wins and victories under our belt to keep us going. Success is all about several wins and steps taken, and you step your way up to success. Do what you can to help people get little wins under their belt. 
How To Help Others Win Big = People want success, so help them win. Most people don't win on a consistent basis, and because of that their self image and confidence goes down. Things that they could do. they don't do. The person they could become, they don't become. You've got to get some wins under your belt. Success is all about several steps, and several wins.


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

https://youtu.be/kBBEqjTwdwM
Connect, Be Relatable = The ability to get along with people and relate to them is a key part in being successful. By learning to connect with people and relate with people your life will be able to reach its full potential. The world is full of people—the way you connect to them will determine how well they like you, and how much they are willing to help you. Connect, and be relatable.

https://youtu.be/9AJmuGxgrAk

When you relate well to others, they will allow you to lead them, to influence them and to have an impact on them. Start with relationships—love those you lead—and end up as a better leader.

Galatians 2:21 (MSG) Is it not clear to you that to go back to that old rule-keeping, peer-pleasing religion would be an abandonment of everything personal and free in my relationship with God?
