I say it’s not just important it is absolutely vital to our survival. It is the only thing that will turn our country around… and the global economies.
I was also struck with the amazing self-leadership shown on the UK Pride of Britain awards last night. Amazing true examples of ordinary people doing the extraordinary. So how do they do that? What makes them different?
Well what we know (if we really listen to what they are saying) is that they never ever give up. They are determined, they accept what they cannot change (losing legs/blindness etc) and they focus on what they can do.
Take your life/career now and apply these 2 different sets of questions:
A What are the problems/issues you have?
What is wrong with your life/career right now?
How long has it been this way?
Whose fault is it/who is to blame?
B What do you want?
What is your vision of success?
What resources do you have now to help you?
What 5 actions are you going to take now?
Great self leaders don’t stay stuck in a problem, they don’t blame others and dwell on all the problems with society etc. They do something about it, they take action and they never give up.
Self-leadership is about you and it will be because of you, you succeed or fail.
So decide now and do something about changing what you want to change in your life/career today.
