Dr. Maxwell will help you understand how RELATIONSHIPS, EQUIPPING ATTITUDE and LEADERSHIP are keys you need to succeed in life by taking you through his How To Be A R.E.A.L. Success video series. There is a free fill in the blank Participant Guide that goes along with the videos you will find in your Downloads area of the course that will help keep you focused on the material as you go through the videos. There is also an answer sheet provided in the Downloads area for the fill in the blanks area of the Participant Guide in case you missed a few on your journey through the videos.
We will also be going through Dr. Maxwell's Your Road Map For Success workbook which is a very powerful 10 week course with 5 short lessons per week that will set deep, strong foundations of wisdom in your being to help you truly succeed in life. This book will change your life forever if you will just apply even a portion of the material John puts into your brain as you process through the exercises! I highly recommend this book! You can purchase Your Road Map For Success e workbook at Google Play for $9.99 or find the paperback version of the workbook, not the book at book sellers on the web.
There is a free Coaching Guide I have created for you that you will work from each week throughout the 10 week session. There I will ask you questions to help you learn from your own life experiences and offer wisdom as to how to apply your new found knowledge of yourself and how you may need to change to be a better leader. I also pull in teaching from the other sources I have accessed over the years as I have sought to be a better leader myself.
I highly recommend you go through this course with at least one other ally/friend. You will discover as you do the assignments it would be very beneficial to discuss the results with at least one fellow traveler on the road to a successful life well lived.
This is not to be an accountability partner. The purpose for this relationship is not to get you to sign a pledge committing yourself to make certain changes and then hold your feet to the fire to make sure you follow through. Such fear-based systems grow out of a results-oriented model and represent the antithesis of what we’re trying to teach. This is to be an “ally”. Someone who knows your weaknesses and strengths and cares for you no matter what. Someone who is chasing hard after all they are created to be and do in their life time.
If you can form a small group of fellow allies that is even better because when one of you is weak the others are there to encourage you to go on and may offer different ideas as to what may be helpful for you. They may live in your area or across the globe with the internet access we have these days.
With these special people you are on a journey together, not necessarily building an organization. They are there to see and call out the best in you. They keep their identity and core values clear. They are people you can learn from just by watching them process life by your side in a healthy manner.
They open themselves up to you and model vulnerability. These people help you act from your best self even in the tough times. They encourage you and are tender towards weakness.
“Groups that are tender toward weakness (V) validate emotions, (C) comfort us with new perspectives and possible solutions, and help us (R) repattern so that we can act like ourselves (VCR). Groups that are tender toward weakness are good at the VCR process.”
Marcus Warner, Jim Wilder, Rare Leadership, page 118
I am so excited for you to jump into this course and continue forward on your growth to maturity mighty one!
All for One and One for all!
