Influence Others

Influence Others

      If your dream is big and will require the teamwork of a group of people, then any potential leaders you select to go with you on your journey will need to be people of influence. After all, that's what leadership is - influence. And when you think about it, all leaders have two things in common: they're going somewhere, and they're able to persuade others to go with them.

As you look at the people around you, consider the following:

• Who influences them? You can tell a lot about who they will influence and how they will go about doing it by knowing who their heroes and mentors are.
• Who do they influence? You'll be able to judge their current level of leadership effectiveness by ho they influence.
• Is their influence increasing or decreasing? You can tell whether a person is a past leader or a potential leader by examining which direction the level of influence is going.

     To be a good judge of potential leaders, don't just see the person - see all the people that person influences. The greater the influence, the greater the leadership potential and the ability to get others to work with you to accomplish your dream.

Personal Development

One thing I have learned over the years is personal development is just as important as talent and skills needed to accomplish any task, goal, or dream.

I want us to grow not our skill in the game but also our mindset towards it as well so starting today I will post  some sort of personal development daily. Please take the time to read them.
