Too many people want to do enough to \u201carrive,\u201d and then they want to retire. My friend Kevin Myers says it this way: \u201cEveryone is looking for a quick fix, but what they really need is fitness. People who look for fixes stop doing what\u2019s right when pressure is relieved. People who pursue fitness do what they should no matter what the circumstances are.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>People who are constantly improving themselves make three processes an ongoing cycle in their lives:<\/p>\n<p>1. Preparation: Self-improving team players think about how they can improve today\u2014not some far-off time in the future. When they get up in the morning, they ask themselves, What are my potential learning moments today? Then they try to seize those moments. At the end of the day, they ask themselves, What have I learned today that I need to learn more about tomorrow?<\/p>\n<p>2. Contemplation: I recently came across the following statement: \u201cIf you study the lives of the truly great individuals who have influenced the world, you will find that in virtually every case, they spent considerable amounts of time alone\u2014contemplating, meditating, listening.\u201d Time alone is essential to self-improvement.<\/p>\n<p>3. Application: Applying what you\u2019ve learned is sometimes difficult because it requires change. Most people change only when one of three things happens: they hurt enough that they have to, they learn enough that they want to, or they receive enough that they are able to. Your goal is to keep learning so that you want to change for the better every day.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014The 17 Essential Qualities of a Team Player<\/p>\n<p>LEARN SOMETHING NEW TODAY, REFLECT ON WHAT YOU HAVE LEARNED, AND APPLY IT AS SOON AS POSSIBLE<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h4><strong>Daily Scripture<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span class=\"exdous\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bible.knowing-jesus.com\/Philippians\/4\/9\">Philippians 4:9<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>The things you have learned and received and heard and seen in me, practice these things, and the God of peace will be with you.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sott.net\/image\/s17\/349310\/full\/Learning_FailuretoSuccess.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h4><strong>Daily Quote<\/strong><\/h4>\n<div class=\"container bqTopLevel\">\n<div class=\"row\">\n<div class=\"col-sm-12 col-md-12\">\n<div class=\"bq_s\">\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"qpos_1_1\" class=\"bqQt bq-qt-page-box ng-scope\">\n<div id=\"quoteContent\">\n<div class=\"qt-fnt bqcpx\">\n<p class=\"qt_499846 qt-fnt-ml\">I truly believe that everything that we do and everyone that we meet is put in our path for a purpose.
