It’s a challenging journey, but one that’s necessary. In a world rife with increasing darkness, it is our duty to be the bearers of light. Every small act, every kind word, and every gesture of understanding brings more positive energy into the world.
I’m guessing it is a function of getting older, but I wake up much earlier these days. At first, this habit used to frustrate me. Although I was never a late sleeper, I did enjoy sleeping until the alarm clock woke me (which was always set too late). Now I don’t even need an alarm clock. Eventually, I began to view my morning time as a gift, despite the initial discomfort. I now get a lot done before the typical day starts, including this blog.
Leaders cannot be low energy people – it is that simple. When you walk into a room the energy level should automatically pick-up. When you meet someone who is low energy your own positive energy should be infectious. Success at anything requires thoughtful action. You need to focus like a laser beam and plough forward despite the inevitable obstacles and distractions. When other people are saying “no” or this is too hard, you have to be able to say “yes” and encourage them on anyway. As with everything you need to lead by example.
