What healing and growth look like. Man I wish it was a straight line

Many people who desire to and do lead are eloquent speakers. They seem to know what to say, when to say it, and how to cover their tracks with the right phrases and reassurances, but they lack proof of true leadership.

Despite the impulse to follow a person based on their eloquence, if we rely on experience and not persuasive words it quickly becomes evident that a sole talker can’t make good on what they say. The pith of leadership is in what you do.

Why do people follow you? What would they have to say about their experience under your leadership? Do you cement your words in action and inspire others by doing, not just saying things?

Leaders face difficult decisions and difficult work every day.

Some leaders respond by putting off the hard parts for later. Some leaders respond by complaining.

The greatest leaders look at what they can change and how they can develop to rise up and meet their challenges. They look at what they’re missing and create plans on how to grow. They don’t push off blame or responsibility, but rather model enthusiasm, wise risk-taking, and hard work to their team.

Where are you miserable? How can you make yourself stronger?
