Tired of Living Life Afraid?
Welcome to the Journey...
Over the last 25 years I never ceased to be amazed at one singular and surprising (at least to me!) fact: very few people really know what they want to achieve, have little idea on what tools will be necessary, and have no explicit plan on how to get there. What’s missing? They haven’t learned or been taught the principles of self-leadership! Dr. Poland tells it like it is and brings the insight of a physician-scientist to the important topic of success and life balance – what it is, and how to get there.
What is Leadership and Success?
Leadership is all about influencing and mentoring other people to accomplish an individual or common goal. Self-leadership is, quite literally, all about you leading you to achieve what you want. Put another way, the goal of self-leadership is first to determine what you want to achieve, second to determine what tools or experiences are required to get there, and third to devise a realistic plan to get there. It is only after this point that one can contemplate leading others – at least in a manner likely to be successful. The concept has ancient origins, Plato counseled, “know thyself”.
Dr. Poland has discovered and teaches that it is the intersection of the following circles: Motivation, Self-Development and Leadership, and Well-Being/Health (mental, spiritual and physical), when coupled with Purpose, Passion, and Plan; that leads to success and happiness. We think that a successful life is all about courage, change and commitment. It takes purpose, passion, and planning to dream, to set goals, to change, to go in a new direction, and to build – even when few believe in you. The distractions from the “amusement park” of life are such that most of us never take the time to really think about what we are called to and what we should be doing.
Why is this Important?
- Life is for real – there is no dress rehearsal and there is no reverse or re-do
- This is your one and only time
- You leave a legacy – one way or another
- You, and only you, get to choose
- A person is only as big as the dream they dare to live
- Don’t live a “near life” experience
