What is starting to show up for me is that in terms of leadership – or life in general, the limits to our potential are mostly imagined. Because of our obsession with how leaders behave and with the interaction of leaders and followers, we forget that in essence, leadership is about learning how to shape the future. Ultimately, leadership is about creating new realities.

Managers who suck up to their bosses are just re-enacting their fear of not being loved by their parent (a proxy for authority).

Those willing to truly lead are a rare breed who have overcome this feeling of dependency and are willing to create their future, along with those of their team. The truly inspired leaders are secure enough to invite their team members to add their inspiration into the mix.

To evlolve into a truly great leader usually takes a good deal of self-examination using tools like NLP or energy coaching that can erase their redundant subconscious programming.

The more someone does this, the more they become open to Soul-led inspiration, the only question being whose Soul is leading?

In a business, ideally it would be the Soul of the business, as Soul energy is the substance many call God that pervades everything in the Universe. It operates at the level of the individual and the group, waiting ever patiently to be noticed and for its influence/energy to be allowed into our game.
