Mountain Movers

Happy Friday Warriors! This week’s Mountain Mover Spotlight features Baxter Horton with Baldwin & Shell Construction Company! As leaders, we can sometimes fall in the trap of only showing our strengths. What about our times of weakness and uncertainty? Can you shine the light of Jesus through authenticity? 2024 was a year of tremendous struggle for Baxter. He doesn’t want to re-live the year, but he’s thankful for the lessons learned. Psalm 34:4-9 Go move mountains in 2025 with transparency, authenticity, resilience, learning and without fear!

Happy New Year Mountain Movers! I hope you’re charged up to make 2025 your best year yet! Next week – goal achieving sheet – hammering goal setting – hearing from Baxter Horton Change is a one-time decision with a daily commitment. - Tim Deremus You have to choose between acceptance and uniqueness. If you're addicted to affirmation, you'll become what others want you to be instead of what God created you to be. - Erwin McManus What makes you unique? What god-given gifts do you have for this world? Maybe you can use some goal achieving to filter through your uniqueness and unlock talents? Don’t just set goals because others do. Set them because you’re on fire for that change!

Merry Christmas Mountain Movers! This is our last recap video of 2024! Watching Christmas through the eyes of a 7 year old is a magical experience. Santa delivered an electric scooter and some other goodies. Pink the elf is gone and took her new boyfriend Kristoff from Frozen with her. My encouragement – don’t fall into the new year. Run into it. What does that mean? Have a plan. Take this time to reflect. Where did you win? Where did you lose? Where do you want to get better? Lay out time to reflect. Have some goals ready to rock for 2025!

Happy Friday Warriors! This week’s Mountain Mover Spotlight features James Brandhorst with AT&T Stadium! How do goals keep you motivated? Positive attitude + effort = performance Your attitude is gratitude! Show gratitude and appreciation consistently! Challenge – show gratitude to God for the gift of today! Show gratitude to others and make it about them. Matthew 25:40 – The way you treat the least of these is the way you treat Me FINISH STRONG! #movemountains #mountainmovers #dailymotivation #motivation #buildtexasproud #construction #goals #goalachieving #gratitude #selfless #servantleadership 

Happy Friday Warriors! In what way do you fall? Almost always in the direction you are leaning. Where are you leaning? The truth, peace and wisdom of God? Your own thoughts? Temptation? Your own ability or understanding? - Craig Groeschel Some stranger somewhere still remembers you because you were kind to them when no one else was. Planning is based around the expectation of order. Preparation is based on the expectation of chaos. Working a plan, executing the plan and preparing for the "what ifs" are all important. Like Iron Mike says "everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth." Are you planning and preparing or just stopping at the planning stage? Preparing for battle is important. What can go wrong? What will the team do if those things happen? If something does go wrong, how do you use that to prepare moving forward?

Happy Friday Warriors! This week’s Mountain Mover Spotlight features Ryan Brence with STC Safety & Risk Management! Resilience is about overcoming setbacks and using adversity to grow stronger. Here are three principles that help us all rise with resilience: 1.    Pre-Decide Your Response: Craig Groeschel teaches about the power of pre-deciding how to act in tough situations. It’s about making a choice now to ‘Embrace the suck’—preparing ourselves to face challenges with openness and strength. 2.    Call upon Your People: We’re created for community, and we need people who truly ‘have our six.’ In the Army, we called these ‘Battle Buddies’—trusted companions who support us when we need it most. Proverbs 17:17 says it best: ‘A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for a time of adversity.’ 3.    Trust in God’s Redemption: As Mike Tyson said, ‘Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth.’ True resilience comes from relying on God’s strength to overcome. In John 16:33, Jesus reminds us, ‘In this world, you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.’ What does your daily review look like?

Happy Friday Warriors! You never know how the tough times you are going through today will inspire someone else tomorrow. - Tim Tebow Before you go to bed celebrate your success of the day. Identify one great thing about your day. One great conversation, accomplishment, thing that made you smile, or win that made you proud. Focus on your success and you'll look forward to creating more success tomorrow. - Jon Gordon Success can lead to complacency, and complacency is the greatest enemy of success. - Brian Tracy Things start going you and your team's way. You close new deals. The team is executing. You are hard-charging towards deadlines and budgets. What's one of the biggest risks to you in that season? Complacency. You get comfortable. Your brain starts telling you "this is easy." You take your foot off the gas. You stop following processes and procedures that got you to a good place. Then what happens? Mistakes start being made. Deadlines get missed. Reorders of materials happen. Last-minute scrambling becomes an hourly occurrence. Now you're stressed, you're not having much fun, there's tension in the team, and you're losing credibility with clients. Don't get caught in the complacency trap! Recognize what's causing your success and be fully committed to the process. I promise you life will be so much more fun. Choose your hard! #movemountains #mountainmovers #dailymotivation #motivation #buildtexasproud #construction #toughtimes #celebratesuccess #success #complacency #sticktotheplan
