Wisdom comes from an underrated source

Writers coaches
Maybe 5 years ago, at the end of a presentation Mark did for aspiring writers, i spent $2k on Mark’s “Wealthy Writer’s Wisdom group”. Nothing happened from this. Successful failure.

 

 

So ridiculously simple we run right past it.

And the crazy thing is every one of us has a ton of experience because we’ve all made a ton of mistakes. And let’s not discount the mistakes from not taking action – all those times we hesitated and talked ourselves out of taking action.

Wisdom comes from an underrated source…

Wisdom comes from experience and experience comes from making mistakes.

To know is to do. To know and not do, is to not yet know.

Do something that scares you and eventually you won’t be so scared. This can become a daily habit.

Note: Spending $2k on Mark’s course was a mistake, but only in hindsight. What i got from the decision to act was learning that fact. But i continued to hold on, thinking something would change. It never did. Unsubscribing set me free and gave me peace.

Satisfied?

Is your culture worth defending?

Do others see you as a warning or an example?

Do you have a systematic way to uncover your blind spots?

Is profit the goal or the reward?

What are the four basics for world-class leadership?

Are the four basics something you’ve honed and live by, or are you embracing some theory from a leadership guru?

Disney Institute van and bus (from where this photo was taken) will make the next left and park behind Main Street USA. Why? To tour upstairs and “downstairs” (the Tunnel).

 

Great (Disney) leaders focus on four world class leadership basics:

  1. Vision
  2. Involvement
  3. Accountability
  4. Commitment

Find solace in a noisy world that this is truth.
