Are you Teachable?

John C. Maxwell challenges us with three statements to reflect upon daily -

1. Everyone has something to teach me.
2. Every day I have something to learn.
3. Every time I learn something, I benefit.

I appreciate his ability to get to the point - He defines "teachability" as "possessing the intentional attitude and behavior to keep learning and growing throughout life" -

Are you learning? 

Are you growing?

If not, check your humility meter. 

One of the keys to teachability is humility -  being intentional about our attitude!

The modern day definition of a leader is "one that does not know it all and one that cannot do it alone".  I've learned this and have the scars to prove it. 

How about you?

What is your definition of leadership?  What do you most admire in those you follow?  Is "teachability" one of those traits or characteristics?  If not, why not?

Just something to think about -
