3 Laws of Personal Growth (via Maxwell)

Maxwell's informed the Odessa, TX crowd in April of 2012 that his next book released this fall would be about the laws of personal growth.  He gave a preview of a few of these laws:


1) The Law of the Mirror

-You must see value in yourself to add value to yourself

-Self-image can be the LID to your potential.

-Confidence gets you moving, and it moves you faster and sooner than without it.

-Fastest person doesn't always win the race, the person who starts first does!!


2) Law of Reflection

-Learning to pause allows growth to catch up with us.

*Experience is not the best teacher, evaluated experience is the best teacher!


3) The Law of Environment

-Growth thrives in conducive surrondings

-spend time with successful people!

-read great books, attend great events, and learn how to nourish yourself


In applying these laws to my personal life, I'm found that application is difficult.  Its hard to see value in yourself.  Its hard to pause.  And depending who you are, its really hard to find successful people to spend time with.  However, the hard work pays off in the end, and the reality is, as a leader you will grow.
