Friday Motivation!

Have you ever considered how important character is to your success? Not just your character, but also the character of each member of your team/family/friends? If you were to survey 100 people, I believe that you would receive an overwhelming response that character matters.

I believe when we are building our team or community we surround ourselves with, far too often we spend more time considering talent than character. Think about it, talent without character is like having a sexy sports car without gas. History is replete with talented athletes and performers who had serious character flaws. Unfortunately, far to many have destroyed themselves and their careers.

This is why I would suggest that you consider the character of the people you associate yourself with and the people you allow on your team or in your life.

A team built on strong character allows talent to reach its full potential. It will bring out the best in the organization when adversity strikes (because it always will). This will allow you or your organization to overcome and persevere. Character will drive your team to reach its full potential and bring out the best in each member.

The most successful individuals and teams surround themselves with high character people. Plus, they are constantly growing their own character. Never stop striving to become a better version of yourself. It’s always character first, energy second, and talent third.

Live inspired, be abundant and fulfill your destiny,
