Enjoying a fruitful life isn't measured by the possessions you've attained but by the people you've influenced. Your possessions won't show up at your funeral to muse about what a blessing it was to have known you! Ergo if leadership is defined as influence, one of the keys to success is learning leadership principles. Personally I find it gratifying if I can reflect at the end of the day about someway I impacted another's life positively. That's a great day! If you can string seven of those together you've had a great month, and twelve of those great months consecutively defines a great year.
The biggest enemy of that is complacency. It never fails to twist my knickers in a knot when someone rational-lies to themselves mediocrity. Their battle cry resembles the phrase,"I'm doing pretty good." or "I've got everything I need." We need to serve a higher purpose, it's why were here.
So my proposal to you today is let's make excuses an orphan. How about we adopt a policy of purpose. Go influence everyone we can in a positive manner today, and watch how well we sleep tonight!
God Bless
