Know that positive, supportive and authentic relationships are the foundational building blocks to anything you want to achieve.

When issues appear, try to get to their roots, understand the contributing factors, and arrive at new solutions.

Observe gaps and mistakes in common thinking and behavior, and trust yourself in your belief that it’s time to push the boundaries of what’s accepted.

You don’t need to be “right” –  try to grow and be more effective. For that to occur, accept critique and challenges.

Be strong and confident in the face of opposition, yet know how to integrate constructive feedback to your work and ideas. 

Share and teach what you’ve learned. Don’t see your knowledge as a commodity to sell – see it as information that has to be shared with the world for its betterment.

Inspire when you obtain amazing results in your work without abusing others. Be happy to help and support others, and your positive energy will enrich the lives of those they connect with.

Help others to grow and walk away from opportunities that will be hurtful to others. 

Don’t take shortcuts or go for the quick answer. Don’t view goals or outcomes as destinations. See that learning and experiencing, are the end goal, and those never end. Embrace failure as “information” that guides you. 

Understand the widespread influence you have and its effect.

Be careful and judicious with your words, actions, and behaviors. Operate with heart, and care deeply about your leadership and communication process and style, and the influence you have.
