It's tough when we feel as though no one can hold us accountable. As John C. Maxwell said: "People buy into the leader before they buy into the vision." Often the love people have for the leader is one, where they don't hold the leader accountable. They either think the leader can do no wrong or that there's something they just don't know, some exclusive detail that only the leader is privy to. While this may be the case some of the time, it can't be a shield the leader hides behind, they've got to be able to explain why they took said actions; even if it was a mistake. That much they owe the people around them. https://bit.ly/32e8GNg

The official definition of greatness is the quality of being great, distinguished, or eminent. Often we see individuals who can rally people together and generate a change; they have an impact. However, these individuals aren’t looking for fame or power; they are simply trying to make a difference. The individuals who utilize their gift to impact the lives they come in contact with positively are those who consciously or unconsciously have tapped into their greatness. As Dr. King said, “Everyone has the power for greatness, not for fame but greatness, because greatness is determined by service.” https://bit.ly/3E1WPPj

Optimism creates opportunities. You'll be rewarded with the view if you're prepared to climb the hill; this is a fresh perspective, one that is necessary for what is ahead. https://bit.ly/3dVtAmT

Understand that deciding to move towards your vision is going to require you to close the door on the things that are not giving life to that vision; if it doesn't contribute to your growth, then it's feeding your stagnation. And remember, if your current tribe isn't nourishing your vision, there is a cloud of witnesses that are ready to help you create a new tribe. https://bit.ly/3m8w6KW

A toddler tetters and totters, and no one says a word; in fact, we encourage them to keep walking. Yet if an adult is seen in this position, people will either show sympathy, empathy, laugh, or ignore the event. I think we have a wide range of reactions because we assume the adult should already knows how to keep a balance. However, "to err is human" as Alexander Pope said. https://bit.ly/3DQkXUY

There is a profound difference between change and transformation. The difference is actually more significant than what we think. These two words are frequently linked and taken as though they are interchangeable when indeed they are not. Think about the metamorphosis that a butterfly goes through. The butterfly started off as a caterpillar and yet transformed into a beautiful butterfly. The transformation did not start on the outside, but rather it began on the inside. The caterpillar did not disguise itself as a butterfly or force itself to look like a butterfly. Nor did it try to walk like a butterfly or act like a butterfly; it simply transformed into a butterfly. https://bit.ly/3m02LCh

In the face of adversity, we have several options; we can either face it head-on, quit, or give up. To face it head-on would require a complete understanding of the resources we have. Every breakthrough moment necessitates a strategy, and no one has ever won a battle without one. https://bit.ly/33n9Nuv

To walk in your purpose you must first, define your space. To define your space means that you identify what it is that you do like no other. This isn't a matter of comparison, this is a matter of recognition, of self-recognition. #Leadership #FaithAndLeadershipBlog #NewBlogPost #LinkInBio #LeadershipQualities #LeadershipDevelopment

The Impact Of A Year. The death of a dream occurs over the course of a year, a year of failure to act on the part of the dreamer.

Dear 9-5er... #Leadership #FaithAndLeadershipBlog #NewBlogPost #LinkInBio #LeadershipQualities #LeadershipDevelopment

Today is the 82nd day of 2021. In celebration, I've written an 82 word article speaking about an important lesson I've learned thus far. #LinkInBio #FaithAndLeadershipBlog #Day82 #2021 #NewBlogPost

New blog post is available. As we reflect on the journey, the highs, lows, and moments of failure, we gain insight into how we arrived at the finish line. With this newly gained insight, we are able to put into practice the lessons learned and once again reach new milestones. #Leadership #FaithAndLeadershipBlog #NewBlogPost #LinkInBio #LeadershipQualities #LeadershipDevelopment #GrowthMindset

As a leader, we must come to understand our team's strengths and weaknesses (everyone has weaknesses) and we must facilitate an environment where the individual's strength is strengthened and their weaknesses are addressed. #NewBlogPost #LinkInBio #BecomingABetterLeader #GaryVee

"Small beginnings are always better than not beginning at all." Too many people are consumed by fear and therefore aren't walking towards their dreams. They are fearful of what others may say, fearful of what may or may not happen, and that fear is paralyzing. Many times, you may even look at your current state and think that because you are in a small position, you can't grow into a greater position. Remember this, small beginnings are always better than not beginning at all. #leadership #leadershipdevelopment #leadershiptalk #begin #idareyoutodream

We asked and you all voted! 100% said Dustin Poirier was the bigger underdog this past weekend. On Sept. 27, 2014, Dustin Poirier and Conor McGregor faced off for the first time on the main card of UFC 178 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena. On that night, six years, three months, and 27 days ago, Conor McGregor won in under two minutes. After UFC 178, Dustin Poirier would embark on a journey that would lead him to capture the interim UFC lightweight champion in 2019. Regardless of what Dustin Poirier accomplished in 2019 or the victories he had along the way, he walked into UFC 257 in Abu Dhabi as the clear underdog. Check out the full blog!

Maybe you don't like MMA or don't watch American Football, that's fine. The story here is how both Poirier and Brady went into combat as underdogs. They weren't shouting, tweeting, or touting about their accolades, they just went to work. #newblog #linkinbio #leadership #underdog #tombrady #dustinpoirier #faithandleadershipblog #growthmindset

Yesterday, January 18th, 2021, we celebrated the life and legacy of Martin Luther King Jr. In my household, on MLK day, my wife and I will talk to our daughters about the importance of equality and the impact of the speech titled "I have a dream". We talk to them about the importance of judging an individual not by the color of their skin, but the content of their character. #MLK #MoreThanADream #Leadership #lesdershipquotes #NewBlogPost #LinkInBio

Legacy, that's what's it's all about. Leave a legacy that echos in eternity.

🚀

Our first blog post of the year! The five leadership qualities mentioned in this blog post are often overlooked, just like the penny that's been living in your cough. Likewise, while you may not have known it was there, you may have also not realized you have the potential to tap into these qualities.

Shout out to all those women working in leadership - successfully. #mondaymotivation

In 2021, what kind of leader do you want to be? #leadershipdevelopment #saturdamorningcartoons

A vision has no expiration date. Goals have an expiration date. There is a relationship that exists between our vision and the goals we set. The goals should be the daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly things we do to get closer to the vision.

Happy New Year! 🎆

"Leadership is lonely ... I'm not going to be afraid of confrontation to get us to where we need to go. There's a big misconception where people thinking winning or success comes from everybody putting their arms around each other and singing kumbaya and patting them on the back when they mess up, and that's just not reality. If you are going to be a leader, you are not going to please everybody. You have to hold people accountable. Even if you have that moment of being uncomfortable." - Kobe Bryant #MambaMondays Source: NBA TV

Free your mind. 🧠

What Is a Comma? While a period ends a sentence, a comma indicates a smaller break. Some writers think of a comma as a soft pause. Often, we can get so wrapped up with all the ideas, projects, meetings and responsibilities that we forget to take a soft pause. Remember to take a soft pause. Display love to your love ones, take a moment for your mental health, and if you can - watch a Christmas movie. 🎄🍿 #tistheseason
