Today, on the Do Hard Things Today podcast.
You might not want to hear it, but you need to hear it. Now, who's going to tell you? Do you surround yourself with folks who will only tell you things you want to hear, or do you have somebody who is willing and capable of holding you accountable?
We'll share a little bit of what you need to hear on today's episode.
On today's episode of the Do Hard Things Today podcast, it's time to take a look at what you're doing for yourself.
No matter what the question is, YOU are the answer. If things are going well, you're the reason. If things are going bad, you're the reason. And you're the one who can fix it.
Join Kevin, Bonnie, and Jed today as they take a look at self-accountability.
Here's a reality check:
No one will follow a leader they don't trust.
The Law of Solid Ground is all about trust-based leadership.
Building trust as a leader allows you some leeway to make mistakes, but the key is that the trust must always outweight bad decisions. No one is perfect, and every leader will lose a little credibility from time to time. However, if you’ve built yourself a solid foundation to stand on, your employees will stick with you when times get tough.
In his chapter on the Law of Solid Ground, Maxwell writes, “People will forgive occasional mistakes based on ability, especially if they can see that you’re still growing as a leader. And they will give you some time to connect. But they won’t trust someone who has slips in character.”
Join us today as we discuss The Law of Solid Ground.
Effective leaders understand the importance of adding value - to people, to the organization, and to the world. They recognize that it takes many people to build a successful organization, they share and give credit rather than claiming it for themselves.
Are you making things better for your followers?
Learn about the Law of Addition on today's Do Hard Things Today podcast.

On today's episode of the Do Hard Things Today podcast, Kevin tells us about beginning the 75 Hard program. It's a self-improvement journey with some rules:
Complete two 45-minute workouts a day, one outside.
Read 10 pages of non-fiction per day, from a real book.
Follow some form of diet plan of your choice.
Drink one gallon of water per day.
Take a progress photo every day.
And that's it. But here's the catch: there are no cheat days, and no days off. Fail any ONE of the challenges on any day, and it's time to start over. Yes, even on day 74.
Kevin will tell us why he's doing it, how it's going, and check in with his progress regularly.
What's your plan?
Don't have one? You'd better make one. Because as you'll find in John C. Maxwell's 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership, The Law of Navigation tells us that the leader is responsible for determining the destination and course of the organization.
This week, we'll take a look at the Law of Navigation, including developing a clear vision, leading with confidence, the importance of adaptability, and much, much more.
"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.
Join Kevin and Jed as they look at the second chapter of "The 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership" by John C. Maxwell.
Today, we'll examine the Law of Influence. This chapter examines several leadership myths, as well as taking a look at the importance of influence and the factors that help determine it, such as character, relationships, knowledge, intuition, experience, past successes, and ability.
Join Kevin and Jed (and this week's guest Bonnie Blackwell) as we take an in-depth look at John C. Maxwell's book "The 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership". This continuing series will explore each chapter of the book. First up: The Law of the Lid.
- How well you lead determines how well you succeed. With this in mind, your level of success will always be a level below your leadership ability. How do you maximize that?
- Take a look at the various aspects of leadership. Leadership can include:
- People skills
- Planning and strategic thinking
- Vision
- Results.
The Law of the Lid takes a look at how you rate yourself, and how others rate you, on all of those aspects and more.
