4. The Law of Reflection
Learning to pause allows growth to catch up with you.
Peter Drucker says it like this: “Follow effective action with quiet reflection. From the quiet reflection will come even more effective action.”
I personally need to do more of this.

5. The Law of Consistency
Motivation gets you going–Discipline keeps you growing.
Develop the good habits that lead to success. Just showing up is 80% of success. Some people just don’t show up.
You can beat them pretty easily by just being consistent in showing up.

7. The Law of Design
To maximize growth, develop strategies.
Jim Rohn says: “If you don’t design your own life plan, chances are you will fall into someone else’s plan.
And guess what they may have planned for you? NOT much.”

8. The Law of Pain
Good management of bad experiences leads to great growth.

No pain, No gain. No investment, no ROI.

9. The Law of the Ladder
Character growth determines the height of your personal growth.

Be great!

10. The Law of the Rubber Band
Growth stops when you lose the tension between where you are and where you could be.
“Only a mediocre person is always at his best.”
If you aren’t stretching yourself than you aren’t growing.
Don’t let the rubber band become limp.

11. The Law of the Trade Offs
You have to give up to grow up.
“People will cling to an unsatisfactory way of life rather than change in order to get something better for fear of getting something worse.”

12. The Law of Curiosity
Growth is stimulated by asking Why? Ask more questions.
The old saying: Those who can do will always have a job, and the people who know why, will always be their boss.

13. The Law of Modeling
It’s hard to improve when you have no one but yourself to follow.
Find a mentor and look for a coach. You can’t learn from someone who hasn’t been there before.
Find the people who have been there and done that and ask them lots of questions.

14. The Law of Expansion
Growth always increases your capacity.
Most experts believe we only use 10% of their potential. Wow! Scary and wonderful at the same time. We all have the capacity to grow ourselves.

15. The Law of Contribution
Growing yourself enables you to grow others.
You can’t give what you don’t possess.
So first you must grow yourself to be able to grow others.
