Do you ever
get carried away? If so - ask yourself this:
"Who does
the carrying?"
Do you get
carried away by other people? Do you get
swept up in their ideas, their plans, their enthusiasm? Or do you get carried
away by yourself?
It is far to
easy to be carried away by other people. We love to be around people who are
enthusiastic, who are fun, who have ideas and who act on these ideas. The issue
is that when we get carried away by others, we may lose our perspective and our
own goals, dreams and wishes.
We need both
leaders and followers to make our sense of community work and to make our
communities prosper and better places. However, there are times when you
should be the follower and there are times when you should be the leader. If
you get carried away by becoming super excited about the possibilities that
might lie ahead and you start going for broke - convinced that everything you
touch will turn to gold, you will attract others to your cause. This is great
leadership and you will benefit many with your leadershi9p.
However, you
get carried away by the unholy trinity of demons:
•Fear
•Uncertainty
•Doubt
An absolutely HUGE part of owning your life and living like you matter revolves around taking
control of the stories you tell yourself. You see each of us controls the
narrative in our head. Why not choose to
be carried away by angels instead of demons? If the angels carry you away, then
you will lead others to a good place, but if the demons take you away, you will
lead others to a dark place. The choice is yours.
