Success Requires Positivity and This...

I love affirmations. I use them all the time to help get me through the tough times. Positivity is an essential trait for a great leader. However, positivity alone is not enough to see you through to success. 

True success requires your positivity go one step further.

As a leader, it is your job to add traction to your positive train.  Then give your team a solid road map on where that train is going, and you have a formula for true success. 
 
Having hope is not a bad thing. You need a team that has a high degree of hope. You need people who truly believe they can succeed. But here’s the bad news, hope is not a strategy.

Below are three steps to get you started.
 
Step one: define your goal. Where are you going? What is your goal? Does your team know the goal? If they don’t know the goal how can they help you get there?
 
Step two: develop a plan. Most people take more time planning their vacations than their business goals. Do you have a step by step plan of how you will reach your goal? 
 
Step three: test and measure. While keeping the goal in sight, measure your strategic practices. How efficiently does your plan help you reach your goal? You will likely have to go back to the drawing board numerous times. This is ok, trust the process. Keep implementing, refining, testing, and measuring until you get the right formula that works. As dynamics change you will likely have to change your processes along your journey to success. That is perfectly normal.
 
From John Maxwell’s book “How Successful People Think” 
 
“Leaders continually surprised by the unexpected soon lose credibility with their followers. On the other hand, leaders who think realistically and plan accordingly position their organizations to win.”

Lead with Purpose!

Here's a quick note, I've just arrived back in town yesterday, on the plane, while juggling BAR exam books and business plans for 2020, I stopped to think how different my life looks to most people. I chose to live as a purpose driven leader. In my life, I am I am in control. 

Sadly, for most leaders, life controls them. They are a victim of circumstance. Sort of like a passenger on a boat that is drifting at sea, moving anywhere the winds and currents choose to take them. 

Hidden is the fact that tucked away in the back of that boat is a motor that can take you where they want to go. Cranking that motor is what leading with purpose is all about.

Are you feeling like your life is drifting? Here's how to change it.

The first step is the big picture. Take time to step away from the busy and the distracting. Look at the pig picture of where you want to go. 

Take time away from the busy day to day. Take time away from the constant busy-ness. Set some time for you and your thoughts. What is your big picture? What is the big picture for your company? Then write it down. Put it on the walls, keep it where you and your entire team can see it every day.

Live awesomely,
