This blog is about Triumph--resiliency, achievement and success. Many of us want to make a difference in the world, and this blog helps deconstruct this topic. What is it that makes one more driven, resilient or adaptive than another? What separates the wheat from the chaff? Together, let’s dissect the mystery and understand it better. May we all move beyond mediocrity and Triumph more in all we do. Welcome to the "Umpher" family. Enjoy the journey.... J. Patrick "River" Laing

John C. Maxwell on Transformation
I'm subscribed to a daily coaching service with a successful speaker and writer I enjoy, Mr. John C. Maxwell (http://johnmaxwellteam.com). He sends out a daily "Minute With Maxwell" message that shows up in my email each morning and always starts my day out right. He's considered one of the most respected speakers in the world and has written over 60 books and sold 20 million+ copies worldwide. I think it's safe to say he has a thought or two that are worth hearing. I've certainly enjoyed his insights.
I've wanted to share with you one of his "Minutes" and today's seemed like an appropriate choice. He's speaking about "Transformational Leadership," talking about how a transformational life (one we've been referring to as a Triumphant one, I think it's safe to say), a life without regrets, all starts with a choice to change. It really all begins with the choices that we day in and day out.
It's not rocket science, but it is a good reminder. John then goes on to share a great idea for how to effect change in our life. I think you'll appreciate it.
My recommendation would be to click on both links ... his main site (above), so you can "meet the man" and sign up for his daily minute, if you'd like to, and this last site (below), so you can hear this specific thought on transforming. Both are worth the sixty seconds they will take you. I've been personally enjoying his counsel for over a year now.
If we're not growing we're dying ... if we are not changing, we're probably growing stale. I hope we aren't.
Onward and upward,
Patrick-Riv
