Age will not limit your success… unless you let it do so. So keep dreaming, moving, and creating. Your perseverance and determination will pay off. #WinnersMinute 3/3

You can change your career, choose a new path, and pursue your dreams whenever you want. Stan Lee’s first hit comic came when he was 39 years old. Julia Child’s first cookbook came at age 49, and Peter Roget published the thesaurus at age 73. #WinnersMinute 2/3
What do you want to do with your life? That’s a question that many seniors are answering this time of year—but it’s something you can ask yourself as well. What is your vision for the future? Remember, age doesn’t have to stop you from dreaming. #WinnersMinute 1/3
... so always remember the part you play in the bigger picture of life. As George Shinn stated, “There is no such thing as a self-made man. You will reach your goals only with the help of others.” #WinnersMinute 3/3
Save this post as a daily reminder.
Football players have head coaches, offensive and defensive coaches, assistant coaches, and plenty of people in the front office. You may not know all of those people by name, but their work makes the rest of the organization shine… #WinnersMinute 2/3
Behind every well-known person is a slew of people who make that person look good. For example, actors and actresses need a hair and makeup team as well as people to run the cameras, lights, and sound equipment flawlessly. #WinnersMinute 1/3
That means you should avoid the words “You always” and “You never.” When you keep your argument specific to the moment, you’ll enable your spouse to succeed. #WinnersMinute 3/3
Emotion can keep you focused on what your spouse has always done rather than the improvements your spouse has begun. So, when you’re frustrated with each other, keep any disagreement specific to the argument at hand, and don’t bring up the past. #WinnersMinute 2/3
Normally, cheering your spouse on is easy. You know your spouse’s weaknesses and applaud when better choices are made. However, when you’re caught up in the heat of an argument, it can be tempting to bring up the past. #WinnersMinute 1/3
For example, Ken Coleman recommended that those who ask their boss for a raise should do so from a posture of humility. Humility may not always seal the deal on a new position or more money—but it will always set you up for success. #WinnersMinute 3/3

Humble people will always be more appealing than prideful ones because they are confident yet teachable. Humility, of course, is key in any season of your vocation. #WinnersMinute 2/3
For many graduating seniors, a job hunt is around the corner. Job hunts, however, aren’t relegated to teenagers. Looking for a new job can be on the horizon in any stage in life. One key to remember as you pursue a job is to keep humility close. #WinnersMinute 1/3
But those who wait for the Lord [who expect, look for, and hope in Him]
Will gain new strength and renew their power;
They will lift up their wings [and rise up close to God] like eagles...
They will run and not become weary,
They will walk and not grow tired. Isaiah 40:31 (AMP)
He gives strength to the weary,
And to him who has no might He increases power.
Even youths grow weary and tired,
And vigorous young men stumble badly... Isiah 40:29-30 (AMP)
If your reason for avoidance is fear, reconsider the risk—and then take the leap of faith. Don’t let fear stop you from living well. #WinnersMinute 3/3
That’s why I want to ask you today: Is there somewhere in your life where you have let fear outweigh the risk? Fear will hold you back from your full potential and keep you from following your dreams… so go ahead and take a risk assessment of what you are avoiding. 2/3
What do you think is more dangerous: skydiving or driving a car? Some people instinctively assume skydiving carries a higher risk, but that’s not true. Skydiving is statistically safer than driving a car—and yet we drive a car quite often despite its risks. #WinnersMinute 1/3
Now, your kids may not always appreciate those boundaries, but as Roger McDonald stated, “A child’s job is to test her boundaries. A parent’s is to see that she survives the test.” #WinnersMinute 3/3
This, however, doesn’t need to be the case with your family. You can be deliberate in the entertainment, education, and social media that comes in front of your kids. Remember, your boundaries provide guardrails that will help your children find the path to success. 2/3
Parents, many people and organizations in our society covet the attention of your children. They hope to draw them away from your influence and entice them to believe what they want them to believe. #WinnersMinute 1/3
