Enthusiastic participation
How can you participate more enthusiastically in building the culture?
Over 15 years ago, when I was younger and didn't know the first thing about personal development, a friend shared an essay that made a strong impression on me.
It was titled "Showing up."
The author affirmed that the most important step towards any goal achievement is to show up. Again and again and again.
I have, since then, become a fervent advocate of consistency and observed that whenever I successfully convince myself to engage in something regularly, progress always happens.
As a leader, the very first step towards improving the culture of your team or organization is to show up.
Deliberately deciding, every single day, that you will enthusiastically participate in building the culture.
This is how you show up.
