Have you ever considered resting as non-productive? ‘Rest is important for leadership. Often, we rest from work rather than work from rest. We do our best work when we are working from rest. Resting from work leads to burn out. Working from rest leads to inspiration and a sense of anticipation and encouragement. We first need to identify the thing that restores us and gives us rest. Then we need to schedule that first in our calendar. Prioritize rest today!’ (J.Maxwell) That’s certainly a new way of looking at rest and how it benefits growth. Are you resting properly today?

How easily do you give up when the going gets hard? Hopefully not so quickly. ‘A determined person doesn’t find it hard to succeed; they find it hard to stop trying.’ (A.Steble) We need to know that with any attempt to grow and improve there will be challenges. So, ‘Enjoy the journey and try to get better every day. And don’t lose the passion and the love for what you do.’ (N.Comaneci) That’s the goal behind these daily ideas – try to get better a little bit every day, and have fun while you learn.

Captivating: Idea #370
Have you been aware of how engaging you are? ‘When someone is captivating, they hold the attention of others. This is a difficult challenge today as attention spans continue to drop. If we are engaging and captivating, we have a chance to hold the attention of others long enough for them to act on our words. The key is to hold people captive with the great ideas you have to deliver.’ (J.Maxwell) As we become more aware of how we keep the attention of others, we’ll have more opportunities to share our great ideas.
