In this episode, we break down John C. Maxwell's 19th Irrefutable Law — The Law of Timing — and why it separates intelligent leaders from wise ones. You can make the right decision, with the right people, for the right reasons, and still get the wrong result — simply because your timing was off. Timing is everything. In this video, you'll learn: • Why the right action at the wrong time equals resistance (not success) • The four outcomes every leader faces: disaster, mistake, resistance, or success • A historical case study: how timing brought Jimmy Carter into office — and took him out • The 7 qualities timing requires: understanding, maturity, confidence, decisiveness, experience, intuitiveness, and preparation • 7 indicators that tell you when it's time to make the big decision • A practical weekly "rep" — 5 questions to evaluate your next major decision or conversation This week's challenge: Pick one decision or conversation you know is coming. Ask yourself: 1 Is this action right? 2 Am I emotionally ready? 3 Are the people involved ready? 4 What happens if I move now? 5 What happens if I wait? Then decide: Move, Prepare, or Wait — but put a date on it. Undefined waiting easily becomes avoidance. Don't confuse impatience with courage, or procrastination with patience. What you do matters — but when you do it can change everything. Head to dosedaily.co/MYLETT or enter MYLETT to get 35% off your first subscription. Learn more about your ad choices.
