If you want to develop a skill in any area of life it takes time, effort, and diligence. You must first have the right mindset before embarking on the journey. This includes understanding what you want to develop, what type of work you will have to put in, and how you will do it. You must be tenaciously persistent in pursuing your desired outcome. You must be willing to work through challenges and adversity. Sometimes you’ll take two steps forward and one step back. Sometimes you’ll feel on top of the world and sometimes you’ll feel so far away from your goal.
To strengthen your capabilities you must understand that discomfort is part of the process. This means you’re not going to figure it out all at once. You’re not going to see great improvements over night. You’re not going to see things turn around in an instant. If you avoid discomfort you will prevent learning. Mistakes will happen along the way and you’ll grow from them. They will serve as teachers to help you improve.
If you want to get better you should look for feedback and coaching. You should seek out guidance, counsel, and advice. You should look for people that will help you refine your talents and gifts over time. Nothing is more gratifying than putting in the work, receiving feedback along the journey, and seeing improvement. So set the goal, take the time to learn what you need to do to get better, and put in the work.

Forget about what happened yesterday. Forget about the setbacks and mistakes. Forget about what didn’t go your way. Forget about who wasn’t in your corner. Forget about what they said. Forget about the fear. Forget about the doubts. Forget about what could have been. Forget about what should have been. Forget about the excuses. Forget about taking shortcuts. Work for it.
To accomplish anything of significance in life requires work. It requires planning and strategizing. It requires energy and effort. It requires diligence and discipline. It requires heart and perseverance. It requires patience and giving yourself grace. It requires getting up on the good days and the days you don’t want to get out of bed. There are no shortcuts. Work for it.
Your future is as bright as you want it to be. You can accomplish anything you set your mind on, so think positive thoughts and not negative ones. Think about what’s possible. Think about what’s right around the corner. Think about the opportunities that lie ahead. Think about your goals. Think about your hopes for tomorrow. But no matter what you do remember you won’t get there taking shortcuts. Work for it!

Have you let a dream die too soon that you once had for your life? Have you let a goal or desired outcome die too soon that you once had for your future? Have you let complacency and the status quo become the dominant themes in your life? Have you given up on what was once a hope for your life? Have you stopped believing in yourself because of what you weren’t willing to work through or what you weren’t willing to face?
What we often forget is that some of the things we allow in our life limit us from our true potential. It doesn’t matter if that is a person. It doesn’t matter if that is a particular situation. It doesn’t matter if that is a negative thought pattern or limiting belief. Sometimes what you accept as the consequence of a problem is actually the opposite of what you will be given on the other side of the problem. Sometimes what you go through in a difficult season is actually an experience that was meant to teach you a valuable lesson.
In these types of situations it is always important to remember that no matter what has been spoken over you, or what has taken place in your past, you always have control over where you will focus your faith today. You always have control over where you will given your attention to in this season. The moment you decide where to focus your energy, and drag the negativity out of the shadows and into the light, things change. Your life will change. Things will get better and you’ll see the growth you’ve always wanted to achieve.

I’m ready to step up today. I’m ready to move forward right now. I’m ready for the new journey. I’m ready for excitement. I’m read for adventure. I’m ready to get better. I’m ready to make improvements. I’m ready to tackle the next challenge. I’m ready for who I know I can be. I am ready to become the best version of myself.
I’m ready to forget what was. I’m ready to move on from my past. I’m ready to never look back on what didn’t go my way. I’m ready to avoid the same mistakes from yesterday. I’m ready to learn from the setbacks. I’m ready to avoid the same missteps. I’m ready to remove myself from negative people, places, and situations. I’m ready to become the best version of myself.
You never grow by living in the past. You never take that next step until you learn the valuable lessons along the way. You never grow unless you can deal with challenges and adversity. You never know what’s possible unless you take a chance. You’ll never know what’s possible until you take that leap of faith today. Are you ready to become the best version of yourself?

There will be times in your life when the obstacles seem insurmountable. There will be times of trials and adversity. There will be times when the path forward seems unclear. There will be times when you have to dig deep and look for ways to persevere. There will be times when you won’t have anyone or anywhere to turn and you must rely on yourself.
It is during these moments that you must compartmentalize the things that need to be dealt with in this moment. You must differentiate between who you are right now and who you must become. One side of you might have to deal with certain issues or challenges. The other side of you must focus on the task at hand. You must stay committed to what needs to be done right here, right now.
Don’t get sidetracked with the goal that’s set before you. Don’t look for the easy way out or the path everyone else has traveled. Have the courage of your convictions to see things through to the end. There will be time to handle everything else that needs to be addressed. Stay focused on what is most critical right now and give your attention to the problem at hand.

Understanding others is the second skill of the Bandelli Relational Intelligence Model. This is the ability to be intentional about putting in the time, effort, and energy needed to get to know someone on a deep level. Great leaders possess four skills that enable them to be intentional in developing a strong understanding of their people.
First they have high EQ. This enables them to have the self-awareness to understand their own emotions, the social astuteness to understand the emotions of others, and the discipline to manage their emotions effectively. Second, they are strong active listeners. They listen to understand rather that just listening to respond. This makes people feel seen and heard.
Third, relationally intelligent leaders are curious people. They have an inquisitive mindset and are constantly looking for new ways to learn and grow. They ask questions to better understand their colleagues and coworkers and always have open ears to what’s taking place around them.
Lastly, they practice compassionate empathy. This is the ability to put themselves in other peoples’ shoes and see things from their perspectives. Practice these four skills and you’ll build great partnerships with your team members.

Just because you’re making moves doesn’t mean you’re making progress. Just because you’re taking action right now doesn’t mean you are guaranteed success. Just because you’re putting in the effort today doesn’t ensure you’ll get the victory. Just because you’re doing what you need to do in this moment doesn’t mean you won’t have to do it again.
Progress takes intention. Progress takes time. It is not for the faint of heart. It is not for those who get weary and want to quit. Progress requires sacrifices. It requires steadfast determination. It requires the ability to handle challenges and adversity. It requires the flexibility to adapt and adjust to ever-evolving changes that take place around you.
You have a gift. A specific talent or ability you’ve been blessed with to serve the people around you. You didn’t earn this gift. You were born with it. Never takes this for granted. So take time to identify what your gift is. Harness this ability. Hone and refine what you’ve been given. Do everything you need to do to protect it and then share your gift with others to make their lives better.

Do you often find yourself procrastinating when you need to get things done? Do you have trouble following through with goals you set out to achieve? Do you become hesitant to see things through to the end? Do you lose faith when things aren’t going your way? Do you turn back when the going gets tough? In any situation it’s important to remember that it’s better to be great late than good early on.
It’s better to be great late because you should learn from your mistakes. It’s better to be great late because you had the courage to persevere. It’s better to be great late because it’s a sign you were persistent. It’s better to be great late because it shows you didn’t give up. It’s better to be great late because you didn’t waiver when adversity struck. It’s better to be great late because you’ll look back in amazement at the things you’ve overcome.
Anyone can start something new. Anyone can set out to accomplish an objective. Anyone can begin to move in the direction of their dreams. However, it takes the courage of your convictions to see things through to the end. It takes heart to navigate through change and uncertainty. It takes dedication and determination to overcome challenges that surface along the way. So take heart when things seem to be getting out of hand. For it’s always better to be great late than good early on.
