Be the Wolf
In the book, Animal Leadership:Leadership Lessons Learned from Wildlife for Leading Yourself and Others, by Rad Watkins, I show that to really accomplish your greatest desires you need to get excited like the wolf.
There are two parts to this approach, and it is the second that I would like to discuss with you today. The second part is to incorporate the pack and use all the tools around you to your advantage! Kicking off the New Year everybody has lots of goals, resolutions, desires, what have you. The fact of the matter is that people who are really successful and fulfilled in life always have a lot of goals and desires. Another fact is that no one really succeeds alone. This is why it is important to incorporate your pack and use your tools.
So, whatever your ultimate desire is, make sure you share it with those who can help you achieve you desires. Steer clear of the naysayers and don’t think twice about their opinions, but embrace those who can support you and see how you can involve their energy and knowledge. Also use books, audios, classes, and trainings to support you in achieving your desire.
The very easies way to achieve your dreams is find someone who is dedicated to your success. This could be a coach, accountably partner, mentor, trainer, or consultant. Some one who can support you and perhaps show you the techniques that have worked for them in the past. You will be surprised how fast this can make you the leader of your own life. If you are working on a team, you will be surprised how fast this will make you the kind of leader who is there to support others as they achieve their goals.
Don’t work in quite frustration, trying to go it alone. Be smart and use those around you to support you in life. Use the pack and use your tools. No matter what animal you may be mostly associated with, learn this lesson from the wolf.
