To achieve the extraordinary, you must frame the challenges relative to your capacity. Too small of a vision leads to expected results; too bold, it becomes unrealistic, and you fail to develop the required resources. I've created a system called VISION to help you break through the mental fog and start building traction for your personal and professional life.

In the previous blog, I explained Work-Family-Self as a framework to take back your time. We explored the concept of POISE, an acronym that you can use to charge your battery better so you can go out into this world as a more authentic leader. In this article my goal is to walk you through another acronym that I have created called TIME.

Life and leadership have one thing in common: they're both journeys filled with ups and downs. Purposeful Accountable Leaders (PALs) find self-serving routines and learn to live in harmony between work and family commitments. In this article, I provide a system using the acronym POISE to help you achieve a harmonious life.

Purposeful Accountable Leaders (PALs) understand where they are on their leadership journey and what is required to continue growing. How? Transformational leaders have Leadership Intelligence (LI). I defined LI as aligning emotional intelligence with the organization's needs and the operating environment. LI, at its core, means the less influence you have in your organization, the more you must do personally to succeed.

Everyone has unique core values that define who they are as a leader. However, my goal in this blog was not to convince you to adopt my values. Instead, I challenge you to find your own and inspire you using my examples.

Core values are part of every leader's House of Leadership (HOL). But what are core values, how can you find yours, and why are they important? In this blog, I will share a framework I have developed to guide you in answering these questions. After reading this, I challenge you to find your own and inject them into your daily actions and decisions.

What will the bedrock or foundation of your leadership philosophy stand on? This element is the most important piece in any leadership philosophy and must not be rushed. My goal in this blog is to share with you my leadership foundation using the acronym MEEK. The McMillion HOL is rooted in meekness.

Every leader has a leadership philosophy, but not every leader can clearly communicate it. To be a Purposeful Accountable Leader (PAL), you must consider your leadership philosophy. A way to achieve this is by creating a symbolic house encompassing your leadership style.

Throughout my 15 years of leadership experience, I have learned 27 Rules Of Leadership (ROL). As a note, when I started this blog, it was 24, but it has grown, and I suspect it will continue to grow throughout my leadership journey.

Throughout this journey, we've explored practical strategies to succeed and avoid pitfalls at each phase. Leadership is a transformative journey where we forge our own path toward growth. Each step we take is a small action that contributes to unlocking our full leadership potential.
