Leaders Eat Pressure for Lunch | MWM
Pressure Is An Opportunity for Leaders = The reality of leadership is pressure. And in effective leadership, it is how you deal with that pressure that is the difference maker.  As leaders, you find things that others don't find, you feel things that others don't feel, you see things that others don't see, and you know things that others don't know—this creates a pressure to perform and communicate in a way that positively impacts people. Don’t see pressure as the enemy, see it as an opportunity, as the confirmation that you are tasked with this job.




Keep Your Composure
Stress is a normal part of life. But it can become a problem when it dominates your life. If you feel your composure slipping, perhaps it’s because you are entirely too focused on the small picture. When you get caught up in the obstacle that appears directly in front of you—hindering your next few steps—look up, look farther, look beyond the problem at the big picture. That’s where you will find the possibilities, and along with those possibilities, your composure.

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.

Believe you can come out on top! = We’ve all had times in our lives when we feel the pressure rising—there’s so many things to do and not enough time or energy to spare; you’re exhausted, and you feel as though you are moving backwards, not forward. This is a moment of being overcome by life’s pressures. But when you believe you can push back, and you take action to climb back out of that pile of “stuff,” that’s when you become an overcomer.

MWM | Responding vs Reacting

Respond Thoughtfully = The difference between responding and reacting lies with agility. Reacting is emotional and short-sighted, while responding is thoughtful, grounding, and has a long-term vision. Agile leaders take a breath, assess, and choose a course of action that aligns with their values and goals, even under pressure. This composure builds trust in their teams, and it helps them handle crises with calmness and consistency. This keeps everyone focused and moving forward.




Leaders Calm Their People
Pursue A Peace That Passes All Understanding = Calm is more than emotion and a sense of serenity. Calm is about an essence that good leaders exude for their people, specifically in difficult times. When leaders create a calming environment for others during difficult times, their leadership shines. Good leaders learn how to pursue calm even in the midst of adversity.  



Keep Your Composure
Stress is a normal part of life. But it can become a problem when it dominates your life. If you feel your composure slipping, perhaps it’s because you are entirely too focused on the small picture. When you get caught up in the obstacle that appears directly in front of you—hindering your next few steps—look up, look farther, look beyond the problem at the big picture. That’s where you will find the possibilities, and along with those possibilities, your composure.
