3% Leaders are strong in three areas – Strength of Self Mastery, Strength of Action, and Strength of Relationships.

Some people may be strong in one or two areas, but weak in the others. Success in Leadership takes mastering the total package, the combination of all three. Heighten your awareness in each of the categories to assist you in the process of mastering all three.

It is no coincidence that number one is Self Mastery. Unless you can master your self, what else can you hope to master? The Genesis of Self Mastery is knowing who you ARE. Now who you’ve been up to this point. Too often we define ourselves by our past. Don’t spend wasteful time dwelling on your past. You are not a victim of your past. Begin defining yourself as who you are BECOMING. That is who you are. Not what you’ve done in the past or what you’ve accomplished.

The common denominator between successful proven leaders is that we all deserve to embrace into the cellular structure of who we are – the simple concept of Personal Responsibility. Personal Responsibility is the first Decision of Success – The Buck Stops With Me. Complete ownership of everything in your life, not just your career, will enhance your business, your enterprise, and your life.

At the start of Strength of Self Mastery, we discussed proper goal setting. Don’t make it more complicated than it really is. What is it What is that one thing in your life that when you’re backed up into the corner, that you say no more, turn around, and you’ve got that look in your eye, I don’t care if you’ve got foam coming out of your mouth, you go, this is my goal, I dare you to stop me. That is a real goal. It’s not a wish. It’s not a want. It’s going to happen.

Stick To Your Mission! These are 4 very important words. Write them on your whiteboard, or on a piece of paper and stick it to your computer, your fridge, your bathroom mirror. Wherever you will see it constantly throughout your day. Stick To Your Mission!

There is an old ancient adage. If you want to beat someone, distract them. Many things throughout your day will be masqueraded as opportunities. These opportunities will present themselves because of a particular talent that you possess. Maybe it’s because somebody will find something in you that at least you will listen to them. Be clear that distractions are anything that gets between you and your goal. (Such as sleep! lol Just kidding!)

What is your mission? Can you define it in just one or two sentences? Can you list opportunities in your path that are really distractions? Are you going to allow yourself to get distracted? Distractions could be phone calls, or e-mails, or any number of things that keep you from doing the things that will move you forward.

Plan your day before it plans you! None of us have arrived, because we let distractions get in our way. Find things in your day that will move you forward and Stick To Your Mission!

Learn to master each of the three strengths of the proven leaders: Strength of Self Mastery, Strength of Action, and Strength of Relationships.
