Seek Clarity
We live in a world where information is updated so often. We live in a world full for grey and uncertainty.

So, it’s important we seek clarity.

Taking Responsibility
As time goes on society seems to be losing its sense of responsibility. I am not going to turn this into a pollical rant, but as a leader if you don’t have a sense of responsibility then this will be how your team and those you influence will behave, and therefore becomes hard to change it.

Setting Boundaries
We all need boundaries; boundaries are just another way of saying how are limits are set, the rules of our lives. What is that we will tolerate, how much disrespect will put up with before snap. So, what is the bar or the standards you are setting for those who chose to come into your life. Without boundaries life is can become chaos, meaningless with no central story or narrative.

Touch Lives Everyday
I opened this month with an article about finding purpose, it is when we find our purpose that we really begin to touch the lives others. But please don’t think I am saying that you can on touch lives when you are serving your purpose, because I am not. You only need to walk along the road and smiling at someone and you have most likely touched life. But living a purposefully gives a different kind of impact on those lives we touch.

So, this is being uploaded in the week that end with Valentine Day, and in the UK Valentines is about our significant other or someone we would like to be.
