Get Up & Grow: 21 Habits of Successful People

By Duke Matlock and Dave Martin

Foster a lifestyle of success, spirituality and health with these twenty-one daily habits that focus your daily routine on long-term, life-changing growth.

When we strike gold, it’s only natural that we keep digging. That’s because we have no problem taking advantage of the resources around us. Yet all too often we neglect the resources within us. In Get Up and Grow, Duke Matlock helps you discover that you are your own most valuable resource. No amount of money or status is worth more than the potential that lies within you.

An experienced pastor and success coach, Matlock gives you the tools to help you start investing in yourself. He understands the importance of maximizing productivity by working smarter instead of harder. Drawing from his own hard-earned lessons about growth and leadership, Matlock has identified 21 habits that not only maximize productivity but also create space for overall health and spiritual growth.

INTRODUCTION

This book is about changing your life. At first glance, it is an outline of a morning routine made up of 21 habits. And while those habits are incredibly important, they are simply tools to be utilized on your journey to success and growth. The purpose of this book is not to add things to your to-do list; the purpose is to give you what you need to change your life. The habits, when implemented with intention and passion, give structure to your morning and discipline to your day.

There are a few ways to read this book. It can easily be read in one sitting while having a decent grasp on the concepts. I would recommend, however, that you read one habit every day for the next 21 days. Adopt one habit per day until you reach the end of the book. I also recommend that you download our free resources from dukematlock.com/downloadresources. These infographs and PDFs will help you as you read this book. Take your time as you read; lasting growth rarely happens overnight.
