Know Your Business to the Bottom
Recently a colleague for whom I have much respect was gracious enough to share a presentation about leadership and success in business he had been asked to prepare as part of a training program for future business leaders. The deck was great, full of outstanding advice of both the practical and philosophical variety. It was obvious the views expressed had come from hard earned experience, and not some fancy ivy league college business school or expensive training program available only to the elite, giving it a ton more credibility in my view. Of all the sage advice within one nugget really struck me. If you have not guessed by now, it happens to be the title of this post. It was framed as advice for how to succeed in business, but it has applicability across almost all areas of life.

Leadership is Patience
Authors note: For purposes of anonymity, and to protect my own ass, the people in the article are referred to as “the leader” or simply “they/them.” In addition I paraphrase throughout and thus chose to not use quotation marks to indicate conversation. The wording may not be exact, but it is close to what was actually said. All in all it makes for an awkward read in places and I apologize for that, but could not think of a better solution.

Letter to My Childhood Self
Dear little one, I have so much to say to you that I don’t know where to begin. Much was left unsaid. Too much. So many thoughts, feelings, and emotions never found a voice; were never expressed — not in words, not in laughter, not in tears, nor in any other form. You always kept them to yourself, dear one. You never gave them a face, a name. There they stayed with you, you and you alone.
