Summary

Hi Podcast Family! Today we have a special message for you from John Maxwell. Last Monday, John shared a timely message about leadership in light of the civil unrest and racial injustice we're seeing in America right now. We wanted to share this message as a reminder that what you focus on expands. With so much going on around us, figuring out where to focus can be hard. But John encourages us to focus on being a leader who adds value to others and who listens before you blame others. We believe you'll be impacted by this message and we encourage you to use it to impact your community and your world.

We hope you take this message to heart and do exactly what John encourages us to do in this lesson… reflect. As John said in a recent Candid Conversation, hope causes you to act, and action brings traction. In a world that seems to be standing still, we could use a little traction! So, we encourage you to reflect on the ways you can act and add value to those you lead. Together, let's create a world where everyone is valued and treated as an equal. The time is now. So, let's lead.

0:00.0	Hey everyone, Mark Cole here, welcome to the John Maxwell Leadership Podcast. Today we're
0:12.6	going to do something a little different. Last Monday, John Maxwell shared a timely message
0:18.9	about leadership and how to lead in light of the difficult time our nation faces. We
0:26.0	not only have had the crisis of health because of the coronavirus, we now have an unprecedented
0:33.3	time of challenge as all Americans because of the horrific death of George Floyd. Our
0:42.1	nation is struggling with how to respond, the right way to respond, the voice to respond,
0:47.9	and we feel that John's message is a great reminder for us today. See his message is
0:54.7	what we focus on, expands. John encourages us to focus on being a leader who adds value to others
1:04.4	and who listens before you blame others. We believe you'll be impacted by this message and I
1:11.9	encourage you today to use this message to impact yourself, impact your community, and impact
1:19.6	our world. Now here is John Maxwell.
1:36.3	Hi John Maxwell here, and I have so enjoyed our time together on noon every Monday,
1:45.1	Eastern Standard Time, just doing this series on leadership when it matters most. I've
1:51.1	just done my best every week to speak to the issue of COVID-19 and help us all get better
1:57.6	and cope with it and see our way through it and maybe help each other. Literally today,
2:04.4	I was going to go a little bit lighter and talk about the last dance. I just so enjoyed
2:11.5	watching the documentary of Michael Jordan. I love sports and we don't get my sports now.
2:16.0	And I was going to pull out of that some lessons I learned from that documentary to kind of apply
2:21.8	to your life that maybe would help you. But with the recent situation that's happening and the
2:27.6	incredible social unrest and the tragic murder of George Floyd and others that have suffered
2:37.4	injustice, I just felt that I didn't want to talk to you about the last dance. It's not
2:44.3	the right time. It's not appropriate. Some other time, I'll give you those lessons. But
