Becoming a Great Leader for Yourself Helps You Lead Better
There are ideas you have been waiting to be birthed into reality. A person is waiting inside you to courageously charge into a side of you that hasn't been shown. This person doesn't take an interest in half-fast work or maybes for an answer. You have been waiting for this leader to shine, but this won't happen until you let go. This leader can come into your life and show you the world you have fantasized about and may have all but let go of. If you let this genie out of its bottle, there's a catch.
This leader will become someone who won't just lead himself in victories. This version of yourself will become an inspiration to others as well. When you develop a mentor in yourself, you will acquire the ability to lead others to their goals. It will cause a tremendous difference in your life's outcome. Not from the outside but within because everything you think about will change when the mind changes. The way you see things will change, and other people will be attracted to learn from someone who has made such dramatic changes in leading themselves to success. Once you apply your new leadership habits, it will be your honor and duty to pass this excellent knowledge to others seeking the same progress.
Leadership can be one of the greatest strengths that you have ever discovered. The discipline to create leadership within yourself will be one of the most important journeys you've ever embarked on. Discipline is the key to developing this gift. It would be best to challenge yourself to become more extraordinary because it can create more than ever imagined. Not just for yourself but the entirety of all you come in contact with. You'll cause a ripple effect in accomplishment for generations to come.
The goals you have accomplished and the ones you still seek are a legacy. The hope you bring can spread like a spark that flames up and consumes massive forests, unstoppable by all. The idea of any can change the masses but will need the strength of one who has chosen a path that most won't. This is a path of the uncommon who see their identity as limitless. This ability is only reached by the few that understand there is no end to growth.
Dr. Wayne Dyer famously said, “When you change the way you think the things you think about change.” The coach that will lead you the best and furthest will be you. The steps that cause you to be this coach are many. Here are couple that will begin your leadership experience.
Surround yourself with the right influences.
Your circle of friends and influences are essential to who you become as a person and leader. Bob Proctor once said that if you are the smartest one in your circle of friends, you need to get into a different circle. You are consistently growing when you are around a group of achievers that cause you to up the level of the game you are playing. Not only will your circle of influence up your game, but they will cause you to upgrade the mental field your game is played on together. This doesn't mean completely cutting your circle of friends out altogether, but consider spending less time and showing up less.
How would you find a new circle of influence? One way is to ask if you can help a person of influence like an intern or offer assistance for free to learn their habits and rituals that have made them a success. Do this by being in the spirit of service with gratitude and appreciation for what you will learn, not what you will receive. Another way to have new influences is to ask to offer people you respect a lunch to learn how they became the person they are. Ask them questions, for instance, what helped you earn the success you currently have or what has influenced you the most. Other ways to get around a more tenured circle of inspiration are attending community business group meetings, cigar bars, and other achieving associations. Last but not least, another way is to get a mentorship with a professional.
Getting uncomfortable.
To grow into a leader, you need to become comfortable with being uncomfortable. You will discover hidden elements of talent you were unaware of lying dormant inside you. Get uncomfortable by challenging yourself and trying new ways to lead yourself. In return, this will show others that you are a leader. Let's use new pathways in our lives to indoctrinate new patterns in our brain to create habits that assist us in growing.
Accomplish by trying a new action consistently for 66 days. If you do something for 66 days, always with joy in your heart, you will be heading to a better self. Use your will to lead yourself to become a person creating a new habit one at a time. This way, you do not overwhelm our minds with attempting to change too many things at once. When you change one new habit with 66 days of repetition, your will be able to have this new habit for life. Afterward is when you move on to the next new serving habit to bring into existence.
There are leaders and followers. To become a great leader, you must also be a great follower. The benefits you can receive from becoming a leader will far outweigh the benefits from being a follower alone. Challenge yourself constantly to teach what you learn.
This challenge will reinforce the knowledge you gained and cause tremendous strength inside you. This strength will carry on to your power to lead others. It all starts with you using your will to enhance the inner coach and develop those new uncomfortable habits, also getting around an environment of people doing what you want to become a better leader by being a follower. We mentioned the repetition of these new habits would create them permanently.
To learn more about making a positive shift with the habits in your life, take a look at the steps we discuss in the blog post Shift your Paradigm to Effectively Memorize What You Study. The steps to becoming a leader will not be easy, but they will bring wisdom and wealth once applied and taught to others. Never fear what others think of your journey in growth, and never hold back in anything you do.
I am the type of person who emphasizes rather than blames. People have other priorities outside of work. Since the student doesn't contribute or put in as much effort, it would affect my ability to contribute. I will talk to my coworker to see if there's anything I can do to help them resolve their issues. If there isn't a solution, I will set up a meeting with the manager.
