We talked about being a thermostat, not a thermometer. We talked about setting the temperature. But some of y’all are still stuck. You’re trying to change the room, but you haven’t changed what’s going on in your own head!
You think leadership is just a series of actions? Leadership isn’t just what you DO; it’s who you ARE. It’s a STATE OF BEING you decide on before you even walk through the door. It’s the energy you bring into the room that changes everything.
So let me ask you a new question. What’s the story you’re telling yourself RIGHT NOW?
Is it a story where your team is lazy? Where the market is tough? Where you don’t have the resources? That’s a weak story! That’s a thermometer’s story! And that story is creating your reality!
A leader—a real leader—grabs the pen and writes a new story! A leader decides what things mean in a way that empowers them and their team to win. They don’t have a blueprint for failure; they design a blueprint for VICTORY.
A thermometer reacts. A thermostat acts. But a true leader takes MASSIVE, DECISIVE ACTION! They don’t just solve problems; they OVERWHELM them. They don’t dip their toe in the water; they create a tidal wave of momentum that is so powerful, the problems have no choice but to get out of the way!
What are you declaring over yourself every morning? Are you hoping for a good day? Or are you standing tall, changing your physiology, and DECLARING with absolute certainty:
“I AM THE FORCE FOR GREATNESS ON THIS TEAM. I WILL FIND A WAY OR I WILL MAKE ONE. NOTHING WILL STOP ME.”
Your team doesn’t follow your title. They follow your certainty. They follow your energy. They follow the conviction in your voice that comes from a place of absolute belief.
So, the real question isn’t just are you a thermostat. The question is, what state are you choosing to live in? What identity are you committed to embodying?
Stop waiting for the feeling. Stop waiting for permission. Awaken the giant within you and decide that you are the standard. The power has been in you all along.
Now, go take massive action. Go lead.
