SLP326 - ”Change Is Inevitable - Growth Is Optional”

"Change is inevitable. Growth is optional.” ~ John Maxwell

If anything in life is certain, it’s the fact things are going to change.

Are you cooperating with change, making right choices, and as a result, growing into your next level?

Life always changes around us, but we do not always change internally as a result, and therefore, do not leverage the external change.

Are you growing to be the person you are capable of being or are you simply accommodating the changes happening all around you?

Feature Presentation: Therefore, to one who knows the right thing to do and does not do it, to him it is sin.
~ James 4:17 (NASB)

Our Creator put certain laws in place which govern the universe, and one of those laws is the Law of Growth.

• “Living things grow, and growing things change.”
• If something stops changing and growing, it acquires a new status altogether – dead.
• History has recorded so many examples of how change comes, yet people (or organizations) still refuse to grow into the change.

Let’s Talk About You

• You have engaged change over the course of your life (and this year) but have you grown personally, mentally, academically, emotionally, spiritually, practically?
• Are you engaging the change on the basis of the same old you?
• Are you simply adapting to the change in an effort to try and survive, OR …
• Are you identifying areas in your own life where you need to grow in order to leverage and maximize the new opportunities?

What was excellent on the previous level is mediocre (at best) on the next level.

LIFE will constantly be in motion around you. Changes will take place in every sector of your world and opportunities will present themselves. The next level is available to you, without a doubt.

You cannot perform at a level you have not grown into.
