Your work may give you a sense of purpose, but your work is not your purpose.

Pushing people matters

World-class squinter. World-class, professional antagonizer.

When someone pushes you uncomfortably, it is almost always because they care about the team.

Note: Family is your most important team.

Fire starter pro-tip

Mid Life Celebration book
The drainage hole cover with the Mickey Mouse head emblem – the only place you could find Mickey Mouse when EPCOT Center opened in 1982.

Ask, “Is my leader on fire with our organization’s purpose? Does my leader set me on fire about it too?”

Pro tip: Lead yourself. Do not count on others to set you on fire with a compelling, noble purpose.

Your groove

Becoming a public speaker was scary enough. Doing it without slides after 2,000 speeches? Remarkable. Freedom.

In your early career years, you easily get into your groove which becomes a lifetime habit that creates a rut so deep, you can’t climb out.

Freedom, a way out, from this trap is discovering what doesn’t feel like work. Then setting out to make your get-to-do purpose more than your have-to-do work.

Personal leadership 101: Ask yourself simple, yet direct, questions. Are you doing work you believe in? If yes, congratulations. If no, why not?
