KEEP REINVENTING YOURSELF.

Learning to Lead

We all go through times of uncertainty.

There are periods we donโ€™t understand whatโ€™s happening to us, and we feel unsure of our direction.

It can make you want to give up.

But itโ€™s often when you feel the most lost that you are forced to find your purpose.

Once you know your โ€œwhy,โ€ you can weather any storm.

Youโ€™ll still feel the wind and the waves, but you donโ€™t lose your course.

Use the uncertainty to find your direction.

For this 5-Minute Friday, I revisited a conversation I had with John Maxwell where he shared how a difficult time taught him how to be a leader.

John C. Maxwell is a New York Times bestselling author, coach, and speaker who has sold more than 25 million books in fifty languages. In 2014 he was identified as the #1 leader in business by the American Management Association and the most influential leadership expert in the world by Business Insider and Inc. magazine.
