Take the Fascination test? How do you fascinate others? I was introduced to this process years ago with the Sally Hogshead Fascination Advantage. All of us have gifts that will enhance other’s lives. I don’t know if I was born being a leader but I do know that I’ve worked on being the best leader that I could be in my own company and to my children. Being a leader doesn’t mean just telling people what to do its more about the team driving towards a common goal in my company. When my daughter was little, I would give her clear direction on what she could and couldn’t do. Do you remember the movie Zorro? Remember Zorro training the guy that was a drunk that lost his brother and was just wandering around and one day Zorro was gifted by the challenge of this guy. Well, this guy ended up being trained to learn to sword fight inside circles. The tighter the circle the more control that he had over his actions. He had learned the disciplines of controlling himself and his skills. The same thing I did was teach my daughter that consequences happened if she went outside the parameters of what she was allowed to do. She learned those lessons and now will become a mother soon.
Nobody said being a leader is easy. It can be lonely, it can be hard because a leader has to look at the big picture vs just today. We look at results and the steps it takes to get to those results.
