Everyone in this airport is the CEO of their life and this has far reaching ramifications

 

Heard a really important, heavily influential, highly seasoned and decorated executive say that making others uncomfortable is part of being a leader.

Couldn’t help but wonder if it also applied from subordinates to the higher-ups.

Everyone is a leader because everyone is the CEO of their life.

Think about it for a second.

Life (and fear) is a highway

 

Fear in the professional world is so thick, it nearly chokes us.

It’s one or the other for us as we travel through life attempting something incredibly lofty:

  • our efforts will change our life
  • our efforts were the biggest waste of our time

Faith, reason, and hard work are never a 100% guarantee.

There are only two regrets in life:

  1. We didn’t try hard enough and failed
  2. We tried too hard and wasted our resources

Life is hard.

And full of uncertainty.

Be intentional which ever way we choose. No?

Share joy? How can we not?

 

Three reasons why not asking your boss for permission demonstrates you have finally arrived:

1. You didn’t ask because you figured it out for yourself. And it’s one less thing your boss needs to worry about.

2. You are so sure of yourself, you bet your career on it.

3. Worst case it’s reversible and it demonstrates your vision, courage, and judgement.

This is a joyful position to lead from.

All day. Everyday.
