Today Is A Gift

We all like presents.  No matter what our age we like receiving gifts.  At least I known that I do. 

I can’t think of a time I have ever watched someone open a present and not be totally engaged in that moment. 

What if we treat today like a gift, and like a present too?  Be thankful for the gift in front of you today.

Be present in the present that is today. 

I’m cheering for you.

Why Not?

There will be doubt and there will be doubters.  But it cannot be from you.

There will be critics and they will criticize. But they will not be invested like you are.

There will be complaints and there will be complainers.  But they will not bring solutions.

YOU will have faith when doubters doubt.

YOU will believe when critics criticize.

YOU will establish solutions when complainers complain.

YOU will say “Why Not?” when others say “Why?”

YOU are a difference maker.

I’m cheering for you.

What Do You Want To Be Better At In 2023?

What is it you want to have done when we turn the calendar into 2023?

Who do you want to be when 2023 hits?

Could waiting be too late?

Today, November 1, 2022 we have 61 days until 2023.

What can you do over the course of the next 61 days to get to where you want to be?

What can you do for just 15 minutes each day 61 times to help you get there?

Give 15 minutes a day. It will likely turn into more but make it your goal to give at least 15 minutes per day to a task or toward self improvement.

To get what you want you will have to do what you have not done before.

Small steps done repeatedly over time can accomplish big things.

Start today.  Schedule it.  Stick to it. 

Contact me if you want some help and accountability. 

I’m cheering for you.

Clear The Path

As a leader you have a lot of responsibilities but one of the most important is that of clearing a path for people to do what they have been hired to do.

We are approaching that time of year in the Midwest where we will need the snowplow to clear the roads of snow so we can get around on the roads and streets.

The snowplow driver will clear the roads but they won’t hop out of the truck and then drive us through the path they have made.

They are just making it easier for us to go where we want to go. They often times anticipate the storm and are out before the storm even comes.

Think of leadership in the same way.

As leaders we should work to remove the big obstacles that may keep our people from being able to do what they are wanting to do. We clear the path and then let them do what they were hired to do and capable of doing.

Be out in front. Anticipate the storms, clear the path and then watch them go.

I’m cheering for you.
