Leading Stance

Many of us find ourselves in leadership roles. It may be because we have had children, were promoted at work or contributed skills in a club that placed us in front of others. Some people are born with strong leadership abilities. They naturally gravitate to the top of everything that they do.

The position of guiding others is one that takes a lot of responsibility, if it is done in a healthy manner. The leader must learn to follow their true vision and inner convictions. They must articulate to others what needs to be accomplished. They must have the courage to speak the truth at all times. Leaders need to be positive with their guidance. They must emit love and be willing to praise others.

So, on that note, the quote of the day is:

“Every great leader exhibited strength from within, not dominion over.” tc

Honest Lift

Is telling a white lie better than out-right lying? NO. To lie is to deceive, simple.


Telling the truth is a symbol of your honor and integrity of character. If you are prone to telling lies, then you need to look within and figure out why. People who say adamantly that they “hate liars” are actually calling out for help because they do not like the fact that they lie! They see it in everyone else because the negative act of lying is a challenge that they must learn to overcome.

We are all learning ‘the lessons of the soul’ on our life journey. It is important to be compassionate with others when dealing with their struggles. It is just as important to be compassionate and forgiving with ourselves as we face the tests along our journey.

So, on that note, the quote of the day is:

“The outside reflects the amount of balance achieved on the inside.” tc
