Everyone wants to work for a great leader

Everyone wants to work for a great leader.

Yet how many of us sign up to do the lifetime of uncomfortable (because it’s difficult) work required to be that person. A person identical to the great leader qualities and character we long for?

Hopefully all our hands are being raised.

Live like you mean it.

Lead like you mean it.

Pretty much the same thing.

All those important issues at work seem so trivial

Yes we can love our job and worry about the business all the time.

Just keep things in check.

Okay?

Interesting photo pulled from FB but cannot recall the originator (wishful thinking?)

 

When we are overwhelmed (probably daily) with things to do and think about, it’s often best to pause.

To regroup.

To think.

To take stock.

To reprioritize.

To plan.

To unpause and take action.

Better action than before the pause.

But our work is our mistress.

Who’s got time?
