Loving the idea of being the best in the world!!! We just have to decide whose world we want to be the best in.

I want to be the best in Cait’s, my family and friend’s, and our church’s world.

This requires strategically quitting certain things!

Leverage conviction and regret as a catalyst for change!

Love how this indirectly led to affirming my word of the year and habit for the year. Come on, God 😆

People deliver on what they own!

How can we encourage people to own things? Lead them in accomplishing great things, but let them choose how they do them.

Focus on developing people rather than just getting things done.

- Achieving goals is a means to developing and discipling people. Not the other way around.

- Focusing on investing in people ironically leads to more getting done!

Achieving goals is a means to developing people, not the other way around.

The team and organization moves at the pace of its leader.

Am I moving at a challenging YET sustainable pace?

vision isn’t soft or fluffy. A compelling one is what you need to keep you going and help people move in the right direction

Put that vision into action!! Keep simplifying complex systems!

—Many of us believe in order to get ENOUGH out of life, we have to be fully-stocked, fully-committed, fully, scheduled, and living life on the run.

—But do we? Being a great follower of Jesus, husband, and pastor comes with consistent actions done greatly over time! Building a great church comes with consistent growth from successful things done greatly over-time.

Geeking out so hard over this lolol

a 12 week year helps you be focused on being great at a few things rather than being distracted and mediocre at a few things

I also really love the "tactics" idea of writing down everything you think you need to do to achieve the 12 week goal and breaking those down into months and weeks. Think sprinting!

Virtually useless but fun and funny 😂

The 12 week year mindset forces you to get clear on what you're best at because there's not enough time to screw around lol it forces you to focus on the critical activity that matters the MOST and say NO to other things.

Loving this for personal and church stuff. I love how God speaks in ways I would never expect.

Win the way you won before!! What worked and how can I carry that into the next goal?

Don't be dumb 😂 make your lesson learned greater than the experience of failure

Goals were made for man, man wasn't made for goals!

If you're pursuing goals you don't enjoy and aren't in alignment with how God wired you, you're robbing yourself of blessing the world around you 🤷‍♀️

This guy is super ADD but I love the adventure nuggets 😆

Some people are most creative about new goals when they’re close to finishing a current goal. Why? Because what’s next will almost always be more appealing than what’s now.

My job? Use new goals as a reward for finishing current ones. I LOVE this!! Gets me so dang fired up.

This guy is so ADD but it’s such an easy and fun read 😂 also, banking EXPERIENCES Cait and I need to make sure we make happen 😆

Perfectionism will tell you that your work or goals can't be fun.

Working hard for something we don't like is stress...working hard for something we love is passion.

Perfectionism will tell us that we can do it all right now.

But the reality is that there are things, even people, in life that can WAIT. So convicted.

Is the world gonna fall apart if I do less? Or if what I set out to do takes longer than I thought?

Perfectionism DOES NOT equal excellence.

Convicted as heck about not needing to always be running at 110%...oof. BUT I love this book! Gonna provide such good direction as we finish our 2025 goals and game-plan 2k26 😆

Goofy but oddly informative 😂

Hurrying from thing to thing doesn’t do anybody any good.

Loved the idea of our bodies being an instrument for doing good rather than an ornament for looking good.

Focus on what you're for, rather than what you're against. Don't be afraid to imagine what COULD be!!

Less does not mean the same as none!!!

I think this is so huge and the lie we believe is that less is the same as none. Believing that lie keeps us from saying yes to the best things and no to other things.

Saying no has the power to empower you!

Leave room
