Grow-Giving Principles 3

Grow-Giving Principle 3
 
Did you do it? Did you take the opportunity to increase your value AND increase in the number of people you are touching?
 
What you will see happening is since you are increasingly giving of yourself and touching lives, you are simultaneously build influence and rapport. 
 
The Law of Influence:
The Law of Influence says, “Your influence us determined by how abundantly you place other people’s interests first.
 
So as you see added here, the giving of value, the giving of yourself to touch lives, and now the giving up of putting your needs above the person you are touching, you have built a very strong bond, that those who are being touch will back your success. Not only back and support you, but also push you to do more and become more. 
 
The secret to this law is to not just think win / win, where you win and they win by negotiating terms, but shifting over to THEY win, and their win is also MY win because I could make it happen for them. Our success shoots 100 fold when change our mindsets from ME win centered, to WE win centered. I say we because their win is an achievement for both of us. 
 
This is why I’m pushing your one words and goals. I want to see you win. That’s a win for me too! 
 
“A good leader motivates, doesn’t mislead, doesn’t exploit. GOD cares about honesty in the workplace; your business is his business.”
Proverbs 16:10-11 MSG

Grow-Giving Principles 2

Grow-Giving Principle 2
 
Yesterday we talked about the law of value, how “your true worth is determined by how much more you give in value than you take in payment.”
 
This does not mean go work for free. 
It is showing the quality of your solution. Every good or service you sell, is a solution to someone’s problem. The quality might determine the level of payment, but let’s look at the next law. 
 
Grow-Giving Principle 2
The law of compensation 
 
The law of compensation states, “Your income is determined by how many people you serve and how well you serve them.”
 
So putting the 2 together, because they go hand in hand, if you have great value, and serve a great number of people, then your pay will be great. In the book she said, “Your compensation is directly proportional to how many lives you touch.”
 
People who touch millions of lives, usually will be the ones who are making millions of dollars. 
Movie stars, athletes, etc., may not influence you greatly, but the compound effect is the strategy of reaping huge rewards from small, seemingly insignificant actions. So collectively the things they do is worth a little bit to a lot of people. $1 profit spread over a million people is a million dollar profit. 
 
And get this, the higher the quality of the giving of your dedication to your solution, the more people will be willing to compensate for it. The more people you touch, the more the compound effect can come into play. 
 
So today, let’s increase our value, and increase in our effort to touch lives. Look for the opportunities to do this throughout the day!

Grow-Giving Principles 1

Grow-Giving Principle 1
 
As I was saying last week, we are going to start his year off a little differently. I wanted us to first focus on our own determination for our success, (our goals and our word), and now lay out a foundation for that success:
 
Giving. 
 
I want everyone to get “the go giver” when you get the chance.  It’s a short story where the main character has a heart change from go getting, (crushing anything and anyone who gets in the way of his success), to true success, being a solution through the enjoyment of helping others. 
 
1 condition the main character had to fulfill is when he learned a law, he had to implement that law that day. So, when you hear the law, more than likely you’ll be presented the opportunity to demonstrate what you have learned, and it will elevate you that much closer to your success!
 
Law 1: The law of value
Your true worth is determined by how much more give in value than you take in payment. 
 
Your business or the job you do is a solution. 
Out of love for your the solution you possess you are rewarded with a paycheck. 
The more you help people (giving value), the more people will give for that value your giving to them. 
 
Look at all the people you consider successful. 
Are they giving value? 
Are the solutions they provide serving many people?
How can you increase your value? (Hint: serve more people) 
 

Applying the Eisenhower Matrix to Our Goals

Eisenhower Matrix Applied To Our Goals
 
“But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.”
Matthew 6:33-34 NIV
 
Prioritize your top ten goals!
Assign 2 values in 2 categories, 1-10 
How important is it to you? 1-10
How Urgent is it to you? 1-10
 
4-D Quadrant
DO - Must be done by you, as soon as possible
Decide - Can be scheduled for later
Delegate - Let someone else handle it for you
Delete - Not necessary, may not even get done, and nothing changes because of it. No impact.

One Word, top ten, and if only statements working together!

One Word, top ten, and if only statement
 
“Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and he will establish your plans.”
Proverbs 16:3 NIV
 
“In their hearts humans plan their course, but the Lord establishes their steps.”
Proverbs 16:9 NIV
 
Your One Word encompasses your spirit and fortitude for this year and describes you and outlook on things. A good word would be “Driven”
 
Your top ten will be the list the things you want to accomplish this year. As you mark one off, replace it with something else. Make it positive and measurable, so you’ll know when you’ve achieved it. 
 
Vague: “I want to lose weight this year.”
Measurable: “I will lose 5lbs this month.”
 
If only statements will take that goal and provide you something that will help you achieve it. 
 
“I can lose 5 lbs this month, if only I had a meal plan. I am driven to get this done.“
 
What do we need? A meal plan. Now we know what we need, and what it is we need to look for to help us. 

Persistent

The word for this year: persistent 
Persistent: continuing firmly or obstinately in a course of action in spite of difficulty or opposition.
 
Keep moving forward, be persistent because 
“For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.”
Luke 11:10 NIV
 
Believe this: The one who gives you that awesome vision of yours, also gives you the power, personnel, and resources to make it happen. 

Move Your Feet

Move Your Feet!
There is an old African proverb that had a saying, “when you pray, move your feet.”
 
Yes there is a time to be still. 
You need to be still to hear, prayer is the TWO way communication between you and God. 
 
But there will be a time to act. 
God will be requiring you to stretch your faith by being a “doer, not just a hearer”
The scripture says that faith without works is dead. 
 
It does not do you any good to see fire, hear the alarm, and still sit there and pray. You have all things happening for a reason, your success. 
 
I’m 1,000% sure that God does not want you to just be, He wants to move, and you to move with Him. On the flip side, I’m also 1,000 % sure that if you don’t move, you’ll stay right where you are. 
 
So when you pray, move your feet!

The Litmus Test

The Litmus Test
We all have plans and ambitions, AND God Himself has plans for you too... (Jeremiah 29:11)
 
Have you ever wondered, are my plans lining up with His? Could you unconsciously working out a plan that will take you down a path to destruction? I believe many of us aren’t financially free because we build our own grave instead of a legacy. 
 
But anyway. 
 
As we head into the new year, and start to develop our vision and plans, pray. 
 
The litmus test: 
Hold it up to the light! Hold it up through prayer. Actually examine it with prayer lenses. 
Remember, prayer changes things, or better yet you for things. 
 
Pray that it is right. For if it is not right, it is wrong. And nothing that is wrong hardly ever turns out right. - Power of Positive Imaging
 
¡Prospero año y felicidad!
