What Do I Want? Ask yourself regularly, what do you want for yourself. Ask even when you don’t have all of the answers. So often we forget about us and what we need because we are so busy taking care of others.
Give passion to get passion : Think about how you respond to others. Are your responses filled with enthusiasm or are they flat and lifeless? The level of your energy will be reflected back to you--it's your boomerang to the world.
Value your values: Just as important as what you do is how you do it. Living and working in alignment with your values reflects your passion as a person. Living your values also engenders the respect and commitment of others, who will see you as a leader of integrity.
Communicate with your community :The best leaders surround themselves with others who share their motivation. Stay connected with your community to find support, to learn, to teach and to remain energized to stick with it.
Do not find excuses: "Do or do not. There is no try." If you are nervous that your plan won't work, you might find yourself saying, "Okay, I'll try to do it." You are laying the foundation for being unsuccessful from the beginning by giving yourself a way out. Remember that life rewards those who let their actions rise above their excuses.
Enjoy the journey : If it's only about achieving the goal, you are likely to lose steam along the way. Take time to be a human being, not just a human doing. Although high-achieving leaders have a laser-like focus, they also relish being in the moment. Present moment is a gift and needs to be cherished.
Imagine the future : Visualize the things you will be able to do once you have achieved your goal. Does it feel freeing? What will you be able to do with your precious resources of time, money and energy? This exercise is particularly helpful when you feel the flame of your passion barely flickering.
Serve others: Use your passion to inspire others. After all, great leadership is about others, not about you. Be ready to turn your passion into an example to encourage those around you to pursue their own goals. A true passion, like love, is limitless ... so share it.
