Most Valuable People's (MVP's) in life have a mission,vision,& a purpose!

MVP's  don't get upset because their setup for victory- Mvp Key

Any enterprise is built by wise planning, becomes strong through common sense, and profits wonderfully by keeping abreast of the facts. -Proverbs 24:3-4 (TLB) Don't Just spend your time planning, take your time. Many times as a rookie I've made plans that fell through. That's usually what happens when you don't follow through. I had to learn the hard way when plans didn't make cents it's usually nonsense.The Book of life commands us to do things decent and in order. Job stated "I have ordered my cause and now I shall be justified.   According to the SBA 50 percent of businesses fail in the first year and 95 percent fail within five years. ... Many  reports on business failures cites poor management as the number one ... fail because of fundamental shortcomings in their business planning.I have learned as a MVP that some of my teammates faculties may be questionable ;that doesn't mean that they're not good faculty. MVP's must be willing to listen more than they talk because influence starts with interest. Most of my life as rookie mvp i've been the subject of many conversations and so will you. Commentary is never an issue when you're great at communicating the issues. Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you [from their company], and shall reproach [you], and cast out your name as evil, for the Son of man's sake. Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you [from their company], and shall reproach [you], and cast out your name as evil, for the Son of man's sake.   Luke 6:22-23 In other words MVP's don't allow what others say get in the way of victory."If your enemy is secure at all points, be prepared for him. If he is in superior strength, evade him. If your opponent is temperamental, seek to irritate him. Pretend to be weak, that he may grow arrogant. If he is taking his ease, give him no rest. If his forces are united, separate them. If sovereign and subject are in accord, put division between them. Attack him where he is unprepared, appear where you are not expected .”
