A warrior’s mindset is what defines the warrior’s behavior. Six hundred plus “warriors” attended The Ultimate Warrior Conference at Elevate Life Church in Frisco, TX on October 8-9, 2010.
We were treated to “warrior food” - outdoor barbeque while dining on the freshly poured concrete floor of our new cathedral (first ever in Texas); participated in warrior games, judged exotic and classic cars in our vintage auto show and were “warriorized” with the dynamic words of Pastor Steve Kelly, Wave Church in Virginia and our own Keith Craft.
Pastors Steve and Keith each defined behavorial traits of warriors. I have summarized several of their topics to keep my blog post from being very long:
- Plan your battles. A warrior is always proactive – he’s a leader, using forward thinking and strategic actions to take in order to achieve the desired results(victory).
- Use courage to swim against the tide. When the going gets tough, the tough get going !
- Know the power of negativity. Do not allow a single smidgeon of negativity creep into your mind or in your actions.
- Keep your heart in whatever you do.
- Wear the restraint of the vision. Be fully aware of the requirements you place on yourself to achieve the goals you have set for yourself. Discipline oneself in order to reach the finish line first.
- Be high yield and low maintenance. Maximize your efforts in all that you do.
- Focus on what you have, NOT what you don’t have of what you think you need.
- Promise yourself … never allow “the good” to be robber of the BEST.
- Expand yourself… increase your capacity to reach your mighty potential.
And finally, two statements in terms of your reactions to others.
- Don’t be offended by leadership style. Keep your cool, with eyes and mind on YOUR targets. Don’t allow leaders to “get you down”.
- And, the best way to help the poor is …. DON’T BE ONE OF THEM !
