EMBRACE THE

MOMENTIN AKURE

EMBRACE THE MOMENT

• Are you ready for someGOOD NEWS

today?

THE POWER OF ASSUMPTION

• My Good Friend Lisa

• Assumption Kills

–Do not ever assume that the heart/mind is ready

• Tools To Succeed

AWARENESS IS EVERYTHING


• Who are you?• To grow yourself, you must

know…– Your Strength– Your Weakness–Your Interest–Your Opportunity


• Coaches or Mentors Help with Awareness


•Watch Awareness Video atwww.masternoelbada.com/awareness

It’s easy to miss something you are not looking for


• The opportunity you seek in the distance may be a few feet from you

• The Plot of Diamond

– Moses on Holy Ground

– Paul, that I may know Him

– Jacob, The Lord is in this place


Neale Donald Walsh in his book writes:

"It is not a small thing to be wrong about God. And if nearly everyone on the planet is wrong about God, it's really not a small thing."


Albert Einstein said:

“The significant problems we have cannot be solved at the same level of thinking with which we created them.”


Christian Simpson said:

“You hide nothing from a person of awareness.”


Our Educational System

School teaches us what to think NOT how to think. Church teaches us what to think NOT how to think. Our parent teaches us what to think NOT how to

think. So most of us would rather seek answer than to BE the answer because society has taught you to be like that.

We forget that As a man thinks so he is.” In other words, if you are not thinking, then you are not living.

Awareness at Business Place

• Twins Killings in Nigeria / Mary Slessor

• Driving: Lagos to Abuja

• Interaction with Nigerian Police

• Business Transaction with the Market Women

POINTS OF AWARENESS

You cannot lead unless you can coach

Managing is not coaching and Managing is not leading

You cannot lead people to where you have not been

Coach must listen more than they talk. i.e. Jesus ask great questions… who does the people think I am?

POINTS OF AWARENESS (CONT’D)

NOTE: The answer is always within the people. They are just not aware or conscious of it. i.eElisha’s Servant, woman at the well (out of your belly)

The power is in the process NOT the coach (Or Sermon)

It is very possible to believe in a lie

Your belief is holding you back


The legendary Bruce Lee said:

“If you always put limits on everything you do, physical or anything else, it will spread into your work and into your life. There are no limits. There are only plateaus, and you must not stay there, you must go beyond them.”

POINTS OF AWARENESS (CONT’D

• Belief drives expectation; expectation drives behavior

• You will never outperform your belief (self-image)

• Someone gets richer everyday because of your lack of awareness. Find out who it is, humble yourself, and let them coach you.


• Get ready to lose some friends

The more you raise your awareness and the closer you get to the top, the more friends you'll lose. People love you when you're average because it makes them comfortable. But when you pursue greatness it makes people uncomfortable. Be prepared to lose some people on your journey.

Getting Ready for Next Session

• GETTING READY FOR NEXT SESSION

NEXT SESSION: Be Your Own Boss

• Interactive Exercise: The Learning Model Timeline

• Group Exercise –

“Leadership ability is the lid that determines a

person’s level of effectiveness. The lower an

individual’s ability to lead, the lower the lid on his

potential. The higher the individual’s ability to lead,

the higher the lid on his potential.”

“The higher you want to climb, the more you need leadership. The greater the impact

you want to make, the greater your influence needs to be. Whatever you will

accomplish is restricted by your ability to lead others.”

Raising Your Lid

Ask those closest to you to grade you on your lid.

Evaluate and consider the likeness and

differences

Raising Your Lid

Mentorship/Coaching

Mastermind/Focus

Do something beyond yourself!

Reflect on who has been a lid lifter in your life.

What characteristics make them a lid lifter?

Make a “stop doing” list.

Be Your Own Boss

• Interactive Exercise: The Learning Model Timeline

– My Journey: Nigeria to America to Nigeria

• Group Exercise – 4-5 people to discuss goals in the next 90 days

• Facilitate Money Exercise

• Commitment To Yourself: The Old Pope Story

He who thinketh he is leading

and no one is following,

is only taking a walk!

I AM ENOUGH

I AM ENOUGH

The only limits you have are

the limits you believe.

(Wayne Dyer)

Five Phases of Leadership

1. I don’t know what I don’t know

2. I know that I need to know

3. I know what I don’t know (what is your plan for growth)

4. I know and grow – it starts to show

5. I simply go because of what I know

Process Will Lift Your Lid

What are you doing right now to build yourself into a

great Leader?

What book are you reading right now?

What seminars are you enrolling in?

What sacrifices are you making to reach your goal?

The secret of our success is discovered in

OUR DAILY AGENDA

PLAN AHEAD

PREDETERMINE a course of action

LAYOUT your goals

ADJUST your priorities

NOTIFY key personnel

ALLOW time for acceptance

HEAD into action

EXPECT problem

ALWAYS point to success

DAILY review your plan

“The bottom line in leadership

isn’t how far

we advance ourselves

but how far we advance others.”

If you can’t give some evidence of making things better for your

people, then you are probably a subtractor.

90% of all people who subtract do so unintentionally.

In contrast 90% of all people who add value do so intentionally.

Why?

Because human beings are naturally selfish. Adding value requires

me to live on purpose

Add enough value to enough people and your effort multiplies

Are you making things better for the people who follow you?

Name 5 people in your personal life closest to you.

Next to each name, write 3 ways you show them you care. If

you cannot write 3 ways you show them you care daily, write 3

ways you are willing to do.

Now, name 5 people in your business life that you lead.

Next to each name, write 3 ways that you display actions every

day of caring, sharing and lifting.

Now, ask yourself – are you willing to do this without recognition?

EXERCISE YOUR INTUITION

Arrange a meeting with each person you will coach. Let them

talk. Listen. Observe. Feel their feelings.

Create a sheet for each person. Write down all that you hear and

see. Study it.

Become intuitive to their thoughts and needs. Study. Navigate.

Report.

We have to touch a heart before we ask for a hand

The first heart we have to touch is our own

We cannot lead others to places we’ve never been to ourselves

Know your giftedness (purpose - God given DNA)

Connection Is Not Easy

Remember – they can’t go along with you until they get along with you.

Do you ask the question….how can I help you?

Are you connected with yourself?

Before you connect with others, you must connect with yourself. Reflect on your

connection with yourself. Ask yourself – what is my greatest asset?

Am I applying my strengths?

How can I use this strength to coach others?

How well do I relate and communicate with others?

Do I like me??? Am I likeable?

How do YOU speak to their heart?

How do they know? How do they feel?

What can I do, as a coach to project my sincerity and add value to others?

Authenticity is a trait people are looking for

Know your audience

Live your message

Go to where they are

Focus on them, not you

Believe in them

Offer direction and hope

Your leadership potential is increased through a

team effort

Who is closest to you?

Who is your team?

Leaders have to deliver. There is no substitute for performance.

But without a good team, they don’t often get the opportunity.

Who in your “team” can make a difference?

Building A Team

Who do you need to complete your leadership excellence?

List the people you want on your team, that can add to your

goals, and in return, add to their goals.

Are you intentional in your relationship building?

Are you a “Lone Ranger” leader?

Building A Team

Do the people in your inner circle possess the strengths in

your areas of weakness?

Do you have an assistant? If not, why not?

Are you surrounding yourself with people who LEAN or

people who LIFT?

Chemistry….team chemistry.

Three Barriers to Empowerment:

Job Security – You don’t want to give away any of your

power to another you are leading

Resistance to Change – Fear of the unknown holds back

your potential

Lack of Self Worth – Far too many people are afraid to

venture out because they feel they are not good enough, not

smart enough, not attractive enough

The First Person You Need To Lead Is Yourself

You must work first and hardest on yourself.

What areas of your life need changing?

How will this change the picture you have created?

Remember-don’t try to change others. Change yourself first.

In case of an emergency in flight… and the oxygen mask falls…

Every flight attendant instructs you to put the mask on

YOURSELF FIRST… so you can take care of others.

Leaders Never Advance To A Point Where They No

Longer Need To Prioritize

Being busy does NOT mean you are achieving

Ask the question: WHAT ARE YOU ACCOMPLISHING?

Prioritizing requires leaders to continually think ahead and see how

everything relates to the overall vision.

Prioritizing causes us to do things that are the least uncomfortable and

sometimes painful.

Today, I will get the “Right” things done!

The 3 R’s for Priorities:

REQUIRED – what is required of me that nobody can or should do for me?

RETURN – What gives the greatest return? What am I doing that can be done

at least 80% as well as someone else? Discover your strengths.

REWARD – Are you doing the things you love? Your passion will provide you

with the fuel you need to keep you doing. Do not neglect what you love. Make a

list and then prioritize your time around this list.

Great leaders hold their goal to make each player succeed in unity

with the other team players to WIN!

What sacrifices have you made to get to where

you are today?

What have you traded? What did you receive?

Sacrifice is an ongoing process, not a one-time payment.

Growth stops when the price gets too high.

Those left behind did not practice the Law of Sacrifice.

Where do you want to be?

Destination Disease!

This is the idea that you have “arrived” and no longer need to

sacrifice. Leaders who think this way stop sacrificing and stop

gaining higher ground in leadership.

What area of your life is infected with Destination Disease?

Practicing the Law of Sacrifice will not only get you to the top of the

mountain, but will keep you there. You will not slide or fall down

from the peak… you will only look up to the next mountain top

waiting for you!

Know The Legacy You Want To Leave

Most people simply accept their lives –they don’t lead them.

Your life is your book. What are you writing?

One day, the final chapter will be written. What will it say?

How does today’s story prepare you for the last chapter?

What is the one sentence people will say to describe your life?

Would you like to change that sentence? Pick a new sentence today!

What we do today, people will say at our funeral. What do you want

people to say?

Too often leaders put their energy into organizations, buildings,

systems, or other lifeless objects. But only people live on after

we are gone.

Everything else is TEMPORARY.”

What are you leaving behind?

Who will carry on your legacy?

What will that legacy look like?

What changes must you make in your conduct and thinking to

change that legacy to the legacy you want to leave? Only by

changing the way you live TODAY, can you change the legacy you

will leave.
