Everyday is an important day. As a leader, and as a person, there are things that you can do to advance your team, family, organization, and yourself?
My passions are leadership, productivty, education, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and emergency management. I feel strongly in advancing them (most of them, anyway…) everyday. What are your passions? Did you move them forward today? Even for just 15 minuites?
Call one person, write one blog post, send one thank you note, do one push up, do something!
