9 Inspiring Statements on Success and Prosperity From Addicted2Success Founder, Joel Brown

Published

Joel Brown

Most adults struggle to come to terms with the fact that there’s more to life and creating success than physical effort. And yet even science now proves that the invisible side of nature is just as real and far greater than this visible world, which we know.

I think we can all agree that entrepreneurship requires more than ego-centered willpower to navigate its treacherous waters. I am a strong follower of the Ceo and founder of Addicted2Success, Joel Brown and he is a prime example of the fact that we need to have our dreams established upon a solid foundation, if we are to successfully turn them into reality.

Wishing alone won’t cut it. Neither will mindless hard work!

Entrepreneurs who are successful have more than just a big idea, strategies, tactics and teams helping them win. They first and foremost learn to cultivate certain qualities and a particular mindset.

In the corporate world, you might get away with being a dull, lifeless pessimist, but in the entrepreneurial space, those who go furthest and sustain it the longest are the ones who posses an ethos that is very grounded but at the same goes deeper than logic can understand.

A theme that can be felt in all of Joel Brown’s messages is that the biggest determining factor in your life and business is your frame of mind.

The wrong frame of mind, which most people still possess, unfortunately believes in lack and poverty. When one possesses such a mindset, it will seem like the whole world conspires to create more struggle on the path of success and prosperity.

According to Joel Brown, and I fully resonate with this — Your ability to succeed and prosper must begin with steps taken toward personal transformation. Everything comes forth from within.

Personal transformation cannot happen if you’re not tapped into the right source of power. As an active fan and follower of the daily messages and words of encouragement he offers I have found a few key ones that I believe will help inspire and propel you into greater success and prosperity.

Many of his statements are simple. Often controversial, especially for those who still don’t understand the importance of faith in business. But I know if you take just a handful of these statements and reflect or meditate on them without prejudice, you’ll appreciate the wisdom of this trailblazing self-made leader.

Here are the 9 most powerful statements from Joel Brown:

One: We only get what we believe we deserve. Raise the bar, raise your standards and you will receive a better outcome.

Two: Be so focused on your God given mission that negative thoughts and jealousy towards others have no place in your mind.

Three: Stop looking UP to others and start looking at the one you see in the mirror. You have greatness in you that is also found within them.

Four: Don’t forget, there is a price to pay for living in your purpose. If you want success, first you must overcome the struggles.

Five: If you are reading this, trust and believe you are going to make it. God is re-aligning the flow in your favor.

Six: Stay with one thing long enough until you become the best at it and your tribe will find you.

Seven: True success comes from something bigger than yourself. It’s a gift from God that has been given to you in faith that you can carry it out.

Eight: Your ideal future is imprisoned within you. The casting of a vision and the dedication to it is the only thing that will bring you closer to your dreams.

Nine: Real entrepreneurs don’t wait for permission from anyone or anything. They write their own permission slips and get to work.

Joel Brown is a global leader impacting millions, but when he started, he was just a simple guy with a mission, vision, a hunger to create a better life on his own terms and to do something meaningful in the world. May his thoughts inspire you to create life on your terms.

Now I would love to hear from you. Which of his statement most resonates with you? And do you have any statements of your own that fire you up?

Bridging the gap between employees and employers

In workplaces around the world, there’s a growing gap between employers and employees and between superiors and their teams. It’s a common refrain: “People don’t leave companies, they leave bad bosses.”

While there are, of course, cases where management could do better, this isn’t just a “bad boss” problem. The relationship between leaders and employees is complex. Instead of assigning blame, we should explore practical solutions to build stronger, healthier workplaces where everyone thrives.

Why This Gap Exists

Every workplace needs someone to guide, supervise, and provide feedback. That’s essential for productivity and performance. But because there are usually far more employees than managers, dissatisfaction, fair or not, spreads quickly.

What if, instead of focusing on blame, we focused on building trust, empathy, and communication? This is where modern leadership and human-centered management can make a difference.

Tools and Techniques to Bridge the Gap

Here are proven strategies leaders and employees can use to foster stronger relationships and create a workplace where people actually want to stay.

1. Practice Mutual Empathy

Both managers and employees need to recognize they are ultimately on the same team. Leaders have to balance people and performance, and often face intense pressure to hit targets. Employees who understand this reality are more likely to cooperate and problem-solve collaboratively.

2. Maintain Professional Boundaries

Superiors should separate personal issues from professional decision-making. Consistency, fairness, and integrity build trust, and trust is the foundation of a motivated team.

3. Follow the Golden Rule

Treat people how you would like to be treated. This simple principle encourages compassion and respect, two qualities every effective leader must demonstrate.

4. Avoid Micromanagement

Micromanaging stifles creativity and damages morale. Great leaders see themselves as partners, not just bosses, and treat their teams as collaborators working toward a shared goal.

5. Empower Employees to Grow

Empowerment means giving employees responsibility that matches their capacity, and then trusting them to deliver. Encourage them to take calculated risks, learn from mistakes, and problem-solve independently. If something goes wrong, turn it into a learning opportunity, not a reprimand.

6. Communicate in All Directions

Communication shouldn’t just be top-down. Invite feedback, create open channels for suggestions, and genuinely listen to what your people have to say. Healthy upward communication closes gaps before they become conflicts.

7. Overcome Insecurities

Many leaders secretly fear being outshone by younger, more tech-savvy employees. Instead of resisting, embrace the chance to learn from them. Humility earns respect and helps the team innovate faster.

8. Invest in Coaching and Mentorship

True leaders grow other leaders. Provide mentorship, career guidance, and stretch opportunities so employees can develop new skills. Leadership is learned through experience, but guided experience is even more powerful.

9. Eliminate Favoritism

Avoid cliques and office politics. Decisions should be based on facts and fairness, not gossip. Objective, transparent decision-making builds credibility.

10. Recognize Efforts Promptly

Recognition often matters more than rewards. Publicly appreciate employees’ contributions and do so consistently and fairly. A timely “thank you” can be more motivating than a quarterly bonus.

11. Conduct Thoughtful Exit Interviews

When employees leave, treat it as an opportunity to learn. Keep interviews confidential and use the insights to improve management practices and culture.

12. Provide Leadership Development

Train managers to lead, not just supervise. Leadership development programs help shift mindsets from “command and control” to “coach and empower.” This transformation has a direct impact on morale and retention.

13. Adopt Soft Leadership Principles

Today’s workforce, largely millennials and Gen Z, value collaboration over hierarchy. Soft leadership focuses on partnership, mutual respect, and shared purpose, rather than rigid top-down control.

The Bigger Picture: HR’s Role

Mercer’s global research highlights five key priorities for organizations:

  • Build diverse talent pipelines

  • Embrace flexible work models

  • Design compelling career paths

  • Simplify HR processes

  • Redefine the value HR brings

The challenge? Employers and employees often view these priorities differently. Bridging that perception gap is just as important as bridging the relational gap between leaders and staff.

Treat Employees Like Associates, Not Just Staff

When you treat employees like partners, they bring their best selves to work. HR leaders must develop strategies to keep talent engaged, empowered, and prepared for the future.

Organizational success starts with people, always. Build the relationship with your team first, and the results will follow.
