Greatness is Within You, Leave Your Mark

In this episode of Principles with Cory and Logan, Cory shares about how great people chose to live their lives in such a way that it inspires and awakens a generation.
John Maxwell says
Success is how well I have done for myself.
Significance is how well I have done for myself and others.
Greatness however is how well I inspire others to do well for themselves and others.
I love that definition as it has a generational tone to it. It's the third and forth level deep in an organization doing better off because I chose to lead and to live my life in a certain way that it inspires others to live life in a certain way. It's the third and fourth generation of a branch in a family tree being better off because I chose to live life in a certain kind of way.
In this episode Cory shares
-The importance of doing everything with excellence.
-The generational study of Jonathon Edwards and his contemporary Max Jukes.
-The way Great people live their lives, how they make their decision and think.

Courageous Leadership w/Cory Lee

In this weeks episode of Principles with Cory and Logan, Cory describes what courageous leadership looks like.
NELSON MANDELA SAID, I LEARNED THAT COURAGE WAS NOT THE ABSENCE OF FEAR, BUT THE TRIUMPH OVER IT…THE BRAVE MAN IS NOT HE WHO DOES NOT FEEL AFRAID, BUT HE WHO CONQUERS THAT FEAR.
I HAVE COME TO UNDERSTAND THAT THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THOSE WHO ARE SUCCESSFUL AND THOSE WHO ARE ULTIMATELY UNSUCCESSFUL IS NOT BECAUSE ONE HAD FAR SUPERIOR ABILITIES OR SUPERIOR INTELLECT, BUT THOSE THAT HAD THE COURAGE TO BET ON THIER IDEAS, TAKE A CALCULATED RISK, AND ACT.
IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS:
1. COURAGE TO MAKE LEADERSHIP DECISIONS.
2. COURAGE TO LEAD PEOPLE NOT JUST PLEASE PEOPLE.
3. COURAGE TO STAND ON INTEGRITY.

From the Pit to the Palace in the Process

In this episode of Principles with Cory and Logan we talk about the phases of growth.
As you read the book of Genesis chapters 37-50 you see this young man by the name of Joseph. He's 17 years old and he has this call on his life to do something great. He probably felt it at an early age and had some kind of internal knowing. Those of you who have a calling on your life you know exactly what I'm talking about. There's this burning desire somewhere deep down inside of you, something deep down in there that says you were made for greatness. Well, Joseph has this on his life and begins to have some dreams of leadership, in particularly leading his family. But because of his arrogance and immaturity he begins to let his older brothers and family know about this dream. His older brothers being jealous of him decided to just get rid of him by throwing him into a pit then selling him into slavery.
It took another 13 years in slavery, in prison, going through trials, disappointments, and accusations before he stood before Pharaoh in the palace and ultimately becoming 2nd in command where his dream was finally fulfilled. But between the pit and the palace was the process.
The Process is what matured and developed this young immature man into a wise leader on the worlds stage.
We tend to want to skip the process and microwave our way to the dream, but the microwaved process has no staying power because the strength of character is not developed. That only comes through the process.
It's in the testing and trials of life that the depth of our character is truly revealed. So what is the process of growth. You can check out the video for more in depth explanation but here are the 4 phases of growth:
1. I don't know what I don't know.
2. I know what I don't know.
3. I know and grow and it starts to show.
4. I simply go because I know.
