God has given us the chance to determine our destiny. King Solomon said that as you think in your heart, so you are. Jesus brought glory on earth by being focused at completing the job God gave him to do. When greatness is expected from someone, they begin to believe they can succeed and they seem to rise to the level needed to become great. That’s why we need to praise those on our team for accomplishments. Research has found that there is an unconscious positive effect when a leader believes a team member will do well. It helps their performance.
Think it in your heart
And so it will be
As you focus on
The end you see.
To the negative past,
Tell it good bye
But welcome the future
With a great big hi! 🙂
Expect great things
Giving you a perk
In order to rise
To new levels of work.
Believe in the team
And get them relaxed
You will discover
Greater impact.
Give out the praise
To every teammate
For small triumphs
And those that are great.
