THE FIVE PILLARS OF CHAMPIONS
I As Iron Sharpens Iron, So We Sharpen Each Other
- The greatest drug in the world is ACCEPTANCE.
- Do you belong to a group with standards or an absence of standards?
- Purpose: Your heart’s voice
- Am I connected to something bigger than myself?
- What is my purpose?
- Rudyard Kipling, “The strength of the wolf is the pack and the strength of the pack is the wolf”
- Have a standard and communicate it
- Learn to have the courage to say no.
- What behaviors will you tolerate?
- The strongest weapon is forged in the hottest fire
- ACCOUNTABILITY
- Who is your Ranger Buddy?
- Who are you held accountable to and who do you hold accountable?
- INTEGRITY TRUMPS LOYALTY
II Put Self On the Shelf
- There is not enough room on the field for 10 teammates and an ego
- Be a servant warrior .. Champions are servants, championships are forged in hard work and humility.
- Be a Thumb Pointer
III A C E
- A – Attitude
- C – Concentration
- E – Effort
- Non Performance Based Self-Assessment
“When nothing seems to help, I go look at a stonecutter hammering away at his rock perhaps a hundred times without as much as a crack showing in it. Yet at the hundred and first blow it will split in two, and I know it was not that blow that did it, but all that had gone before.” – Jacob Riis
IV “Sudden Change” Principle
- “Life is 10% what happens and 90% how we respond..”
- The Longer I live the more I realize the impact of attitude on life.
- Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than successes, than what other people think, or say or do. It is more important than appearances, giftedness or skill.
- It will make or break a company… a church… a home… a life.
- The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday regarding our attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change the past— we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable….
- The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude.
- I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90 % how I respond to it.” – Chuck Swindoll
V What is… is
- No Excuses
- Ultimately all excuses, no matter how valid weaken character
