What does it take to win always...simply "The winning Edge" Every professional will need this to break the leadership lid.

2. 1Corinthians 9:24 - 27 (Easy-to-Read Version)
24 You know that in a race all the runners run, but
only one runner gets the prize. So run like that.
Run to win!
25 All who compete in the games use strict training.
They do this so that they can win a prize--one that
doesn't last. But our prize is one that will last
forever.
26 So I run like someone who has a goal. I fight like a
boxer who is hitting something, not just the air.
27 It is my own body I fight to make it do what I want.
I do this so that I won't miss getting the prize
myself after telling others about it.

3. Philippians 3:12 - 16 (Contemporary English Version)
12 I have not yet reached my goal, and I am not perfect. But
Christ has taken hold of me. So I keep on running and
struggling to take hold of the prize.
13 My friends, I don't feel that I have already arrived. But I
forget what is behind, and I struggle for what is ahead.
14 I run toward the goal, so that I can win the prize of being
called to heaven. This is the prize that God offers
because of what Christ Jesus has done.
15 All of us who are mature should think in this same way.
And if any of you think differently, God will make it clear
to you.
16 But we must keep going in the direction that we are now
headed.

4. The summary of life is about winning……….
winning……..in marriage, academics, business etc

5. The type of “WINNING” I’m talking about is money-
making, bottom-line winning… the kind of winning
that puts money in the bank, clothes on your back,
a nice car in your driveway…. and shoes on your
Kids 'feet!

6. FACT:
There really is a secret that not one in 1,000 people
knows which, when you use it, can elevate you so far
above your competition that you’ll wonder why you
never thought of it before -- and I’m going to reveal it to
you right here… right now!

8. What are you selling in
exchange for the money
or results you seek from
others?
But………you must accept that fact
that you ARE a salesperson
Now some (maybe even you) might say “I don’t sell
anything. I’m a ________________________________
(teacher, mother, pastor, student, clerk….. fill-in-the-
blank)”

9. • Accept your ideas
• Accept your point of view
• Keep paying you as an employee
• Respect you as a father / mother
• Hire you for a new job
• Keep you as a spouse
• Pay you money for any type of
service
• … and much, much more!
But there’s a problem…
… the problem is “You’re probably doing whatever
you’re doing the same way everybody else does it!”

10. Here’s the root of the problem…
By doing things the same way others do them, you create
for yourself a little problem we call – competition!
FACT: A state of competition exists
when customers (or family
members) look at you, then look at
other people, and compare the two
of you against each other.
As soon as others think they can make a comparison
between you and someone (or some thing) else – you
LOSE!
As soon as your prospects, customers, or family members look
at you and someone else and, in their minds, see you as equal --
you have LOST! GAME OVER!

11. Because no matter how good you are, if you choose to
compete directly with others in any arena of business
or life, there will ALWAYS be someone who is
• bigger more fun
• better • better looking
• faster • earlier
• richer • flashier
• smarter • quicker
• nicer • or cheaper than you are!
It’s a fact… if you live in the world of competition, you WILL (not
might or maybe)… you WILL eventually lose to someone else.

12. THE WINNING FORMULA
“How do I WIN every time I step into
the arena of life?”

14. FIND
CREATE ORIGI
DISCOV NEW
ACTION NEW
ER
NATE
WAYS SOLUTION

15. • Doing things in a different, more innovative, more
beneficial way than others currently do.
Doing things in a new way that separates you
from the competition in the minds of your prospects.
Being a creator rather than a competitor separates
you…so much that they wont even make any
comparison…..
YOU STAND ALONE………….and STANDOUT!”
Simply put………….Be DIFFERENT!”

16. CREATION comes with a price… a price
most people are mysteriously NOT
willing to Pay
Take Risks
DUMP the
CROWD mentality

17. MOVING OUT OF COMPETITION TO CREATIVITY
STEP 1: DECIDE
to be different
STEP 2: INNOVATE
Innovation means finding a new use for an existing tool or technique
STEP 3: ADD THE MAGIC MIXTURE “YOU”
Deploy your unique personality in everything you do
STEP 4: TRUST
Trust that you do contribute value.
Trust that, you’ll get better over time with practice

18. Creativity makes
you unique…
uniqueness makes
you indispensable…
indispensable
people have no
competition! …….
