We are addressing People Principles in John Maxwell’s book, Winning with People. At this point, those that learn these principles can answer the questions from the first three sections
of the book:
Readiness: Are we prepared for relationships?
Connection: Are we willing to focus on others?
Trust: Can we build mutual trust?
Completing these previous sections may help one to feel pretty good relationally. Now we ask the question - Are we willing to invest in relationships? Why is this important? Because everything else that has been created up to this point will still crumble, end, or not go with you forever. Health will fail; and others will surpass. What’s left? The people and relationships that you have. And yet, these also take work. Once you get to know people; and you invest in them, that will pay dividends going forward.
We’ll be looking at five ways to invest in people as we go forward. Hope you stay with me! This is where it really gets good!
