Below are a few notes from the Sewell Leadership Event.
"The moment we stop learning we become experts in what we could be and ignorant in what we could become." Collin Sewell
John Maxwell's Laws of Growth:
*To make any team better, you must get better yourself.
*Your capacity to grow is your capacity to lead.
1) Law of Intentionality
-Require a personal growth plan
-You might need to purchase a personal growth plan!
"I wouldn't invest in anyone who wouldn't invest in themselves."
2) Law of Awareness
-You must know yourself to grow yourself
-My greatest leadership challenge is me
Awareness Questions to ask yourself:
1) Do you like what your doing now?
2) What would you like to do?
3) Can you do what you would like to do?
4) Do you know people who do what you'd like to do?
5) Will you pay the price to do what you want to do?
6)When can you start doing what you would like to do?
The greatest detriment to success for people is that they never START!
3) Law of the Mirror
-You must see value in yourself
-Self-Image is the lid for many people
-If you see yourself as below average, you will invest below average. The size of your self image is equivalent to the size of your investment.
How would you build your self image?
1) Guard your self talk - don't talk down to yourself
2) Serve other people
3) Do the right thing, even when its the hard thing
4) Everyday, DO something to win
4) Law of Reflection
-learn to pause and allow growth to catch up
-experience is not the best teacher, evaluated experience is
-"You get to keep losing in life until you start learning from life"
5) Law of Consistency
-must know your 'why'
-requires passion and purpose
This law also requires the 'Rule of 5'
*If you have a goal, you must find 5 things you need to achieve everyday to achieve that goal.
For Maxwell, his rule of 5 things to do everyday include: read, think, file, ask questions, write
