Leading Yourself First
Leading others may be front of mind when most think of leadership, but leading yourself first is the foundation a true leader builds on. In today’s episode of Come Rain or Shine, I share a recent personal situation that had the potential to be life-altering. The crisis was averted because I chose to listen to my spouse and lead myself, but there are some key takeaways that any leader can learn from. Listen to your spouse If your chest hurts, pay attention Listen to your spouse Your diet and fitness will only get you so far Listen to your spouse Start exercising and make it a point to get your heart rate up periodically Listen to your spouse In my upcoming book, How’s the Culture of Your Kingdom (releasing August 11th), I break leadership into three sections: lead yourself, lead your team and lead your organization. By leading yourself, you are laying the foundation to create a culture of security and trust for those following you. Episode Resources: Magical Vacation Planners – 407-442-0257
