"Do not get lost in a sea of despair. Be hopeful, be optimistic. Our struggle is not the struggle of a day, a week, a month, or a year, it is the struggle of a lifetime. Never, ever be afraid to make some noise and get in good trouble, necessary trouble."

— Rep. John R. Lewis, John Lewis: Good Trouble 

I. The Servant Mindset

As a servant leader you must exhibit a willingness to engage in:

  • Courageous conversations.

  • Make difficult and unpopular decisions.

  • Ask smart questions.

  • Understand the value of saying No.

II. We Waste Time

  1. Blaming Others

  2. Judging Others

“The highest form of ignorance is when you reject something you don’t know anything about.” — Dr. Wayne W. Dyer

III. The Fragility of Life

Each day we are bestowed 86,400 seconds of unique opportunities. Do we use this time to:

  • give or take

  • love or hate

  • smile or frown

  • I can or I cannot

  • respect or disrespect

  • be a friend or an enemy

  • be a solution or the problem

IV. Question

What would happen if I did the best work I could without pretending to be something I am not?

V. This Week I Will

  1. Read to lead.

  2. Mindfully eat.

  3. Choose kindness.

  4. Be happy or very happy.

  5. Control the controllables.
