One of the greatest leadership challenges is the actual act of leading ourselves. Some things to consider/some brutal facts to face when we deal with self-leadership: Activity does not necessarily equal accomplishment. Leaders who aren’t focused aren’t as effective as they could be. Human nature seems to endow us with the ability to size up everybody in the world except ourselves. In this podcast episode I discuss the Keys to Leading Yourself Learn follower-ship. What does it truly mean to walk a mile in someone else’s shoes? Develop Self-Discipline. Especially in the areas of: Time usage Money management Thinking positive and character building thoughts Developing your own purpose Leading your life or being lead through life Practice Patience.  The point of leading is not to cross the finish line first.  It’s to take people across the finish line with you. Seek Accountability.  Personal and professional accountability are imperative because we all have a human nature that will lead us astray. We must earn the right to lead anyone beyond ourselves.
