Spending time together is not the same as being in proximity with each other. It is not only about sharing space, but more so about making something meaningful with the time together. 

Those who gossip the most, should be trusted the least. 

The most regrettable and avoidable mistake people make is when they let their ego guide their decisions. When the ego leads, the situation always becomes one of loss. 

When ego guides belief, faith is lost. 

When ego directs careers, potential is lost. 

When ego leads relationships, love is lost. 

Waiting is harder when you aren’t actively engaged in something, anything. 

Sometimes we have to wait. But we can work while we wait. We can learn while we wait. We can pray while we wait. 

What great leaders consistently do:

Set direction and lead change.
The best leaders craft a clear, credible vision, translate it into strategy, remove roadblocks, and mobilize people to navigate change.

Enable two-way communication.
They replace command-and-control with “healthy organizational conversation” that builds engagement and strategic alignment (intimacy, interactivity, inclusion, intentionality). They make it safe to speak up, challenge ideas, and learn from mistakes, thus, driving innovation and performance.

Develop people by coaching.
The can be mentors when needed, but focus on coaching. Great leaders act as coaches, asking better questions, giving targeted feedback, building capability, and fueling courage. 

#leadership 

The best leaders have a clear vision, communicate openly, develop others through coaching, and build trust by creating a culture of learning and compassion. 

Great leadership begins with mastering yourself. Mastering your thoughts first, so then you can understand your emotions and begin to master your reactions and eventually your feelings. When you lead yourself first, then you can lead others with a sense of calm confidence and a clear vision and purpose.

Integrity means keeping your actions consistent with true principles, even when no one is watching or when it costs you something. When what you say and what you do line up, people learn they can rely on you completely.

Courage isn’t about pretending you don’t feel fear, actually it’s about choosing to do what’s right even when you’re uncertain or afraid. Real strength shows up when you act with purpose despite discomfort or risk.

Trust is built on truth and transparency.
