Frozen

Application In Your Life:

George Shuba played for seven seasons for the Brooklynn dodgers and was pictured shaking Jackie Robison's hand after he hit his first ever home run. Shuba, in all his humility, swung a bat 600 times a day, 4,200 times a week, and 47,200 times every winter. Some people are more gifted than others sure. But unless that giftedness is coupled with a complementary work ethic, it will only result in wasted potential.
The day David defeated Goliath was not actually won on that day, it was won the day before, and the day before, and the day before. The greatest year of your life, your dream year could start today but you have to begin by winning today.
For a chapter titled Frozen, we must talk about the Disney movie and its famous song, Let It Go. The couple that wrote Let It Go, with over ten million copies sold and an Academy Award, has had seventeen previous songs that had failed to be produced. It is about a daily discipline to win the day and persevere through failure.

Biggest Takeaway:

You could have the greatest year of your life, but you have to start by winning the day. Through a coupled work ethic you can advance your life day by day. Stay frozen to your convictions and frozen to your habits to get you to where you want to be.

Quotes:

If you keep doing the right thing day in and day out, one day God is going to show up and show off.
The God who got us here will get us there, and the God who did this will do that.

5 Dimensions of Win/Win

Key Points: It begins with character and moves toward relationships, out of which flow agreements. It is nurtured in an environment where structure and systems are based on Win/Win. And it involves process; we cannot achieve Win/Win ends with Win/Lose or Lose/Win means. Character There are three character traits essential to the Win/Win paradigm. Integrity, Maturity, Abundance Mentality. Integrity is the values we place ourselves into. Maturity is the balance between courage and consideration. Abundance Mentality is the paradigm that there is plenty out there for everybody. A character rich in integrity, maturity, and the Abundance Mentality has a genuineness that goes far beyond technique, or lack of it, in human interaction. If we search deeply enough within ourselves-beyond the scripting, beyond the learned attitudes and behaviors- the real validation of Win/Win, as well as every other correct principle, is in our lives.

Are You A Gap Filler?

What is Gap Filler You May Ask? A gap filler is someone who has the ability and awareness to see opportunities and challenges around them, then fill them. When there is a gap in communication, someone has to fill the void. When there is a gap in leadership, someone has to fill the void. When there is a gap in love, someone has to fill the void. When there is a gap in work, someone has to fill the void. It is self-explanatory to understand that a gap filler, fills gaps. It is also very easy to misunderstand the importance and strength it takes to be a gap filler. Practically this looks like covering a shift of another co-worker, looks like overcommunicating to others that may bring conflict upon yourself, taking the burden of hurt from others and their trama, as well as taking the blame knowingly when another leader falls short. This is a heavy burden sometimes because you have to be the glue that holds seemingly everything together. But, take heart, b...

Ways To Effectively Understand People

Key Points: There are four ways developmental stages to listening and understanding people: Mimic Content=Mimicking content is easy. You just listen to the words that come out of someone's mouth and you repeat them. You're hardly even using your brain. Rephrase the Content=This time, you have put the meaning into your own words. Reflect Feeling=Now you're not paying as much attention to what they're saying as you are to the way they feel about what they are saying. Rephrase the Content and Reflect the Feeling= Include both the second and the third stage. People want to be understood. And whatever investment of time it takes to do that will bring much greater returns of time as you work from an accurate understanding of the problems and issues and from the high Emotional Bank Account that results when a person feels deeply understood. Then Seek To Be Understood: The early Greeks used these three words to contain the essence of seeking to first understa...
