Do Hard Things Today

"Leadership develops daily, not in a day." That's how John C. Maxwell begins the chapter on The Law of Process, this week's installment in our study of his book "21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership". The main idea behind the Law of Process is that the routines and tasks you make time for each day are what will eventually build the success of both yourself and your business. The best way to use the Law of Process is by evaluating your daily routines as they stand. What are you currently doing each day that makes you a better person? Do you use your time wisely? Are you making time for personal development? Are you wasting time on other things? Join Kevin and Jed this week as they explore the Law of Process, and several ways you can learn to incorporate it.
