My leadership equation

Posted by Kelly Lewis Share Your Voice

Cool stuff has been happening in me and for me lately. There is a feeling of connection, happiness, and ease. It's like I am riding a wave and while that wave is full of activity, work, commitments, relationships, and challenges - I am completely enjoying the ride. And yes - this is a shift for me, a shift in how I am leading, living, and even learning.

So I have been asking myself, "What's different for me? About me? How am I choosing to see the world differently?" Well after asking myself these questions, a little equation (that includes a new way of seeing the world) popped up that I wanted to share:
Vulnerability (doing something where there are no guarantees, putting myself out there and not knowing what will happen) Patience (allowing things to happen on their time rather than forcing them on my time) Trust (believing in myself, in others, in something bigger than all of us) = Wholehearted (I am completely free to be and bring all of me to my work and life)

These are three big (and sometimes scary) words for me and realizing that it is the combination of them that creates magic for me is pretty cool!! What is your unique equation that helps you create what you want in your leadership and life?
