10 Inspiring Questions that Will Change Your Life and Leadership

I remember my pastor saying to me “Steve, as hard and painful as my cancer has been– it has taught me a sense of urgency as to how to live my one and only life“.

This season of life with COVID-19 and civil unrest has been hard and painful. It’s also pulled back the layers of trivial and provided a “sense of urgency”.

I’d like to offer you 10 Inspiring Questions that Will Change Your Life and Leadership:
Note: Please answer each one honestly and reflect on where you are right now and where you want to be.

1. Are you choosing a life of purpose that is greater than “making a living”– one that is significant?
Explain:

2. Do you rise each day with a clear vision as to “your calling,” one that is uniquely yours?
Explain:

3. Are you focused on 2-3 dreams of accomplishments in the next 12 months– and creating small steps to follow through?
Explain:

4. Are you actively seeking out compelling reasons to succeed that have deep meaning, not just quick benefits?
Explain:

5. Are you putting other people first– and displaying a servant attitude?
Explain:

6. Are you focused on your top 2-3 gifts that allow the greatest impact, influence, and inspiration?
Explain:

7. Are you seeking out an inner-circle of like-minded men and women that are 100% committed to difference-making?
Explain:

8. Are you building a dream team that is lean, aggressive, committed, and believing in bold difference-making?
Explain:

9. Are you committed to anticipating and embracing new innovations, new ways of thinking, and new opportunities to chart a path?
Explain:

10. Are you clear with actions to take 8-10 new actions that fuel your heart, soul, and mind?
Explain:

I’m excited for you. I believe our current discomfort can and will help you define even a better version of yourself– and your leadership. Take some time for you to reflect, review, and refine.

Stay strong and purpose-driven,

—Steve
