John C Maxwell

2. Can changing your thinking really change your life? I believe successful people are all
alike in one way: how they think! That is the one thing that separates the successful
from the unsuccessful.
How to change your thinking?
• Perry has put forward a theory in which he argues that moral reasoning
undergoes change according to cognitive development of a person. He
believes that college students go through four stages of mental and moral

3. develop. The four stages are dualism, multiplicity, relativism, and lastly
commitment.
Dualism
• In dualistic thinking every moral issue is right or wrong, it is true or false, it Is
good or bad
• Children are dualistic thinkers
Multiplicity
• People in a multiplicity position are still influenced by dualistic thinking.
They examine various options and multiple perspectives without being
certain which one is right. Student's task is to learn how to find the Right
Solutions.
Relativism
• Relativism is based on the assumption that there are no absolute truths, and
that truth is relative, a concept reflected in the famous phrase “one man’s
meal is another man’s poison” and “one person’s treasure is another
person’s junk”
– Student sees the necessity of making choices
• Relativistic tend to believe that each person must decide what is right.
Commitment – Supreme level of personnel growth
• Relativistic thinkers who continue to develop their moral reasoning are
attracted to the idea of certain personal truth, ideas, or cause that seems to
give meaning to their lives. They respect the other person right to choose.
• Whatever things we are doing the only motivation is to make others happy.
How Belief Can Change?

4. Everyday life is impossible without holding your own set of beliefs
• . First, you are meant to be in control of your beliefs, not the other way
around. Second, the switch that can create a new belief also creates a new
reality at the same time. It's critical to hold positive core beliefs and to
activate them in your daily life. The more you activate your core beliefs, the
more dynamic and transformed your reality will be.
There are four core beliefs that make the most difference:
• Love
• Self-worth
• Feeling safe and secure
• Feeling whole
• In everyone's heart there is a belief about all four of these things, and this
belief isn't always simple. Your entire life has shaped your core beliefs, while
at the same time your core beliefs have shaped your entire life.
Negative Beliefs
• I am not very lovable.
• Love is temporary and fleeting.
• Love can easily turn into hate.
• Falling in love is a delusion, a kind of romantic insanity.
Positive Beliefs
• I deserve unconditional love and also want to give it.
• Love is eternal.
• Consciousness itself contains the power of love.

5. • Human love can connect with divine love and rise to its level.
Life Is the result of your Beliefs and Expectations
• Just because you’ve believed something is true, even if you’ve believed it for
a long period of time, that doesn’t mean that it is actually true or that it has
to be true for the future.
• You have to change your expectation.
• Beliefs are just thoughts that you keep thinking, which keeps them active in
your mind.
• In order to change them, you must become aware of them and then shift
them from the old belief to a new one, reinforcing it with lots of examples
that show the new belief is true
Expectations
• Your past is not your present or your future. You have the ability right now, to
choose something different. You absolutely have the power to create a better
life for yourself. That starts with changing what you choose to believe and
what you expect for yourself.
Attitude
• The greatest discovery of my generation is that a human being can alter his
life by altering his attitude – William James

6. • “There is little difference in people, but that little difference makes a big
difference. The little difference is attitude. The big difference is whether it is
positive or negative.”
W. Clement Stone
• , “Very little is needed to make a happy life; it is all within yourself, in your
way of thinking.” The difference between the life you have and the life you
want is often just a matter of how you think and what you believe.
Changing your attitude changes your behavior
• Understanding and predicting human behaviour has been of particular
interest to researchers for many years. Moreover, the assumption that
knowledge of attitudes will help in the task of predicting human behaviour
has formed the basis for much consumer and social research. Attitudes are
assumed to play an important role in human behaviour theory as the crucial
link between what people think and what they do
• For many years researchers assumed that the relationship between attitude
and
• behaviour was direct. That is, the more favourable the attitude, the more
likely
• someone is to behave in accordance with that attitude, with no other
variables
intervening the relationship.
Factors influencing individual behavior
• Personality
• Ability
• Perception

7. • Motivation
• Socio cultural factors
• Organizational factors
Changing your behavior changes your performance
• What causes us to behave the way we do? Is our behaviour really an act of
free choice?
• There are four sources of human behaviour. They are nature, nurture,
contemporary society, and creativity.
Performance = Ability x Motivation
• Ability:The mental or physical power or skill needed to do something:
Ability: Aptitude x Training x Resources
Aptitude is the natural ability to acquire skill and knowledge
Skill consists of technical skill, conceptual skill, Human relation skill and
communication skill
Knowledge: Creativity + Righteousness + Courage
Training
• Whatever things we are doing to optimize performance
• Resources – you are the richest resources of our nation
Motivation:
• Motivation: the act or process of giving someone a reason for doing
something
• Motivation: Desire + Commitment

8. • Desire (need): physiological needs, safety needs and self actualization
needs
Significance of Performance
• Here all factors of performance are multipliers.
• It means that if any one of the factors reduces to zero, the performance
reduces to zero.
• So optimization of performance depends upon the level of training
