LEGENDS LIVE FOREVER

Values are what we stand for and what guide our decisions. You might value creativity more than making money, for example. Legend - a person whose natural reflex is to be selfless and make an extraordinary effort to put others before themselves. Legends usually stand for something. People will be more likely to remember you because you'll have made a difference in others' lives.

There is a big difference between someone who occupies a leadership position and a leader. People who want to learn how to be successful like others are not true followers. They are simply using those successful people to get ahead. A true follower is someone who wants to be like another person, to learn from them, regardless of the trappings of success that person may or may not have. A leader is someone who teaches and guides others, not about how to be successful like them, but about how they can reach their own potential.

Human beings are wired to seek out threats. Because those in leadership positions have the power to affect our daily work and our livelihood, people pay far more attention to them. And people are constantly watching leaders for cues about what they must do to stay out of danger and give themselves an advantage.

Legendary leaders do not sprout overnight. They grow over time, taking root in the midst of challenges to become even stronger. They dont threaten people using their power, instead guide them, build them and empower them so that they in return strengthen the pillars of the mission for which they are engaged. When leaders demonstrate these behaviours ― perseverance, excellence, confidence, ambition, commitment and humility ― people are motivated to perform at a higher level. A legendary leader paints a compelling vision of the future that encourages team members to work together to attain it.

Legends live forever!
