No matter how eager we are to learn or how much we desire to grow,

it is impossible to capture it all.

Give These Gifts to Younger People:

1)Resource Them

2) Value Them

3) Believe In Them

4) Mentor Them

1. The Value of Questions.

• Wisdom—What is the greatest lesson you have learned?
• Passion—What are you learning now?
• Attitude—How has failure shaped your life?
• Networking—Who do you know that I should know?
• Growth—What have you read that I should read?
• Experience—What have you done that I should do?
• Gratitude—How can I add value to you?

You Have to Grow Every Day.

• “Your level of success will rarely exceed the level of your personal

development.” –Jim Rohm

• Change your mindset from “How long will it take?” to “How far can I

go?”

• Everyone thinks they are teachable, but successful people move from

teachable to learnable.

• A Learnable Person:

1) Desires to learn—They are hungry.

2) Is intentional in learning—Every person and experience can

teach you something if you look for the lesson.

3) Applies what they are learning—Application equals

transformation.

4) Passes what they learn onto others.

The Roadmap for Learning:

• Humility—The Spirit of Learning
• Reality—The Foundation of Learning
• Responsibility—The First Step of Learning
• Improvement—The Focus of Learning
• Hope—The Motivation of Learning
• Teach-ability—The Pathway of Learning
• Adversity—The Catalyst for Learning
• Problems—The Opportunities for Learning
• Bad Experiences—The Perspective for Learning
• Change—The Price of Learning
• Maturity—The Value of Learning

. People Matter.

• With one trifling exception, the world is made up of others.
• Value people, believe in people, and unconditionally love them.
• Value everyone continually, but value a few strategically.
• Spend your time developing “Inner Circle Friends.”

Inner Circle Friends Give You:

1) A Spiritual Lift—Who prays for you?

2) An Attitude Lift—Who encourages you?

3) A Mental Lift—Who teaches you?

4) A Growth Lift—Who stretches you?

5) A Success Lift—Who adds value to you?

6) A Support Lift—Who unconditionally loves you?

Bonus:

• Every person who has ever achieved any kind of greatness has been

marked by failure.

• How do you know if a person adds value to you? You can’t imagine

your life without them.

• I don’t count my losses; I count my lessons.
