Be A Passion Creator

"A strong passion with moderate talent will take you further than extreme talent with no passion." ~ Sir Ken Robinson, Keynote ASTD 2013 ~

Quite simply, you must follow your passion to achieve true success.   As a leader, it is critical for your organization's success that you create an atmosphere of passion.  Surround yourself with people who are passionate.  Create an avenue that helps others discover their passion and purpose.   Great energy is gained from the thrill of doing what you are supposed to be doing.  When you multiply the numbers of passionate people great things will happen.

1. Close your eyes
2. Breathe
3. Empty your mind
4. As thoughts come in, acknowledge and whisk them away
5. Focus on your breathing
6. Think about the affirmation:

I will help others follow their passion.

Focus On What You Can Control

We cannot direct the wind but we can adjust the sails. ~Author Unknown~

Great leaders only do what they are capable of doing.  There are many things in the world that you cannot control.  Stop trying.  You waste your talents and your energy.  Focus only on what you can control in your life.  First, begin with yourself.  Review each goal and decide what you can do in instead, instead of waisting precious energy on what you can't do.  Then take that step to do it.

"I will focus my efforts on the things I can control."
