  2. You'll inspire people with both your words and your actions, and earn the respect and admiration of those you lead.

12 BHAG—Part 3 (9-12)

  1. Today, I will burn the Mindset of The Greatest Leaders into your sub-conscious, and your ability to motivate and inspire people will become automatic and limitless–-you will internalize all the abilities all great leaders have - vision, discipline, people skills, confidence, decisiveness, respect, focus, courage - and make them second nature.
  2. Today, I will condition your thoughts, beliefs, and attitudes systematically and automatically. You won't just learn what it takes to be a great leader...you literally WILL BECOME one.
  3. Today, I will teach you to think and act like a 'born leader' who commands true respect - and can show people the way to success beyond their dreams!
  4. Today, I will discover the leader in you who creates other leaders who get results while building respect, trust, and loyalty from the people they lead.

MINDSET

Mindset

  • The term “mindset” means a mental attitude or inclination.
  • Our attitude determines our behavior, and our behavior produces specific results.
  • If you are getting effective results from those you are leading, you are having a positive impact on them, and therefore yourself. And vice versa.

Success Philosophy

  • If you want to ADD growth, work on behaviour…the “how”
    • Chase and correct
  • If you want to MULTIPLY growth work on paradigms/mindset the “WHY”.

        • Stephen Covey

Metaphysically…

  • You can only attract what you already have.
    • You can attract leadership excellence in your life, only if you already have a Leadership Mindset...
  • You can only become, who you already are.
    • You can become an excellent leader, only if you are already being leader in your mind, attitude, skills, and knowledge.
  • Make the paradigm shift now…

Your Mindset

  • As a leader, you are not only influencing others, but impacting them – for better or worse.
  • Your impact stems directly from your mindset as a leader, because your mindset affects your behaviors, which then affects your results.
  • So what is your Leadership mindset?

Leadership as a SYSTEM

  • Leadership is a Collaborative SYSTEM through which individuals and groups identify and act on behalf of a larger purpose (a shared vision), such as greater equality and the well-being of people and the planet.
