Sewell Leadership Event - Maxwell's Laws of Personal Growth

To wrap up the lessons learned in the morning of the Sewell Leadership Event, John Maxwell identified some laws of personal growth.

1) Law of Intentionality - Growth doesn't 'just happen'

You can tell if your on the road to success, its uphill the entire way!

*Most people don't lead their life, they accept their life!!   What a sad reality!
"People want to improve their circumstances but not themselves, so they stay forever bound." - James Allen.

The reality is, the secret to success is contained in your daily agenda!  Its not about doing alot of things, but doing the RIGHT things!!

2) Law of Awareness - you know yourself to grow yourself.

What would YOU like to do with your life?  Successful people usually don't know the line between work and play.  If you don't love what your doing, you should be doing something different!

Maxwell offers the suggestion to do a learning lunch every month.  This is an incredible idea, and I'm going to follow up in a later blog what great questions can be asked at this sort of lunch.
