John Maxwell believes that truly successful and influential people exude joy, see life as an opportunity to sow seeds of kindness, and focus their energy on adding value to others instead of being self-absorbed. He argues that while selfishness may be our natural tendency, making the intentional choice to uplift people around you takes conscious effort, transforms you into someone others cherish being with, and is ultimately the key to developing the charisma irresistible leaders share. Though helping others doesn't always yield immediate personal returns, Maxwell stresses that constantly cultivating goodwill inevitably compounds over time into an abundant harvest you can't help but reap. The most magnetic individuals simply recognize that the more we pour into each person we encounter, the more that joy flows right back into our own lives.LISTEN TO THE FULL EPISODE!Sign up for the Greatness newsletter!
