Complacency

Complacency often afflicts precisely those who have been the most successful.    #personaldevelopment 

 

Leadership

If you're in a leadership position, how you spend your time has enormous symbolic value.  It will communicate what's important or what isn't far more powerfully than all the speeches you can give.  #leadership   #leaders

Thankful

What are the top-3 things that you are most thankful for in your life?  No, really, what are they?  Write them down.  It will only take a minute.  I'm serious - write them down now.  Look at your list and imagine your life without these top-3 things?  What would that be like for you?  It's human nature to take what we have for granted.  Perhaps we would cherish and appreciate what we love the most if we had a greater awareness that we can lose what we love the most at a moment's notice.  An "Attitude of Gratitude" is the best way to live one's life!  Happy Thanksgiving!

Thankful

2020 proved to be a most difficult and challenging year for all of us.  But, if we were to all pause for a moment and make a list of all the things in our lives that we are thankful for, that would be a very long list.  Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Change

The ability to recognize that the winds have shifted and to take appropriate action before you wreck your boat is crucial to the future of an organization. #chnage   #future

Clarity

Clarity about what matters provides clarity about what does not.   #personaldevelopment   #achievement 

Employee Performance

Annual or semiannual performance reviews can never provide the real-time, in-the-moment coaching that helps individuals understand the context for the feedback.

Personal Development

We spend much of our day on autopilot - not giving much thought to how we're spending our time.  This is a problem.  Adopt the habit of pausing before action and asking yourself, "What makes the most sense right now?"   #personaldevelopment

What Will Be Your Legacy?

Action is what matters.  Our actions, not our words, are how we will be judged.  People will forget our words, but not our actions, because seeing is believing.  Our actions in life will be our legacy.  #personaldevelopment  #leadership 

Corporate Culture

Create a culture where employees compete against your competitors, rather than each other.     #corporateculture
