Greetings, Readers!

Have you ever wondered if I'm as quirky in person as I am on this blog?  You can find out tomorrow!  I'll be on a Google+ Hangout with 5 other coaches.

Crazy Coaching Friday

via Google+

Produced by www.CoachVille.com 

1:00 until 2:30 pm  Eastern Time

Friday, June 7, 2013

The show is live and unscripted.

Lots of fun, with a little craziness, 

and too many nuggets of wisdom to count!

The show is complimentary, and you don't have to be a CoachVille member to watch live or recorded on www.CoachVille.com (Just click the blue/green button to the far right on the home page.)

When you arrive around 1:00, you'll see a video box from last week's show.  The new show will start there, usually within a few minutes.  Refresh your screen every few minutes until the show begins.

The recording will also be on You Tube.  

If you're watching live, you can make comments right there on the same page at www.Coachville.com, and they will be weaved into the show!  (Via Face Book or CoachVille.)

You don't need to be a coach to benefit from the show. 

Join us; it's fun!  

You can email questions or comments to me anytime after the show.  Let me know if you're writing just to me, or if you want me to pass something along to www.CoachVille.com.  

Another option is to leave a comment below, here on creative4life.

Thanks!

Leadership: Walking Our Talk

Some of you may remember my theme from 2011, which was "Audacious Self-Care."  Well, I guess I teach what I need to learn...when I need to learn it!

The last quarter of 2010 (when I picked the topic) and all of 2011 offered some very difficult challenges for my family and me, so putting reminders about self-care in this blog throughout the year was helpful to me.  Then things caught up with me, and I had to stop blogging for a while in favor of my self-care.  The irony was not lost on me!

I apologize for disappearing, and I will finish covering all the sub-topics of self-care that I promised my readers a year ago. Thank you for your patience.

Before we move on to talking about leadership, I would also like to announce that I've expanded my business name from the same as my name to...(drum roll please)...

Now for today's topic:

Leadership: Walking our Talk

Last spring, on 6/3/11, I wrote a post about the value of personal leadership in preparation for this one on walking our talk as leaders.  Long-term success in leading others is based on how you manage yourself.

In the photo above, one of the components is "Lead by Example."  That would be problem if the "example," or role model, had the basics of his own life in disarray!  Poor role models either forget this, or they think it won't show.

For example, the poor role model may think it doesn't matter if their home office is messy and disorganized, because his followers never see it.  Well, they do see it...in the role model's stress level, even if his desk at work looks great.  What's more is that they can feel it on an energetic level, and they won't feel motivated by the leader.

This concept also applies to the leader's stewardship in these areas:

*integrity

*health

*finances

*lifestyle

*relationships

Think of this as if it were a pillow sham.  It looks great on the outside.  But if the pillow inside is filled with stones, it's useless to followers and leaders alike.  No wonder so many people come home from work with a headache!

Here's to great leadership,

Susan
