A great leader is one who makes decisions from the energy perspective rather than using the mind.
Become the leader you wished you had so that you can build an organisation that puts people first. Togetherness is better under all circumstances for creating results. Results do not come from knowing; they come from motivated employees acting on what they feel is right.
Knowledge is only other people’s findings. The future is wisdom, and wisdom is learning from and acting on what you believe in. Whether the result is good or bad, what do you think is the downside of this way of leading? I only have one answer: the worst that can happen is that you learn and grow as a leader and human.
In the beginning of 2002, I found a formula that changed my work and life. What I found, I wanted to share with everyone, and the result was the book, The Law of Possibilities: How to get what you want. I found that a great leader is the master of manifestation, who can call on all humans to serve the greater good. When the power to co-create is used with integrity, great beauty and benefit flow to all. When the power to manifest is used only for personal gain, everyone suffers. Never forget that the world is only mirroring to you the condition of your love and intent, so a great leader changes from within before they take any action. You can never lead others until you have learned to lead yourself.
I also took a deeper glance at myself as a leader at that time, and started to look at all my facets of light and darkness. I found that the most important part was what I chose to express, at any given time. Who did I want to be [also as a leader] and how did I want to live my life? I found that it was not about bothering about everyone else, but rather entirely about looking at myself. I started out by asking the question: who was I now and what is my potential? I found that I wanted to look ahead and make sure I was always moving toward my natural, powerful potential.
