Got you thinking 🤔🧠💭💡? Tell us about it 📝!

How do I know that YOU 🫵 have a leadership vision?

A few days ago I was listening to an interview with Tom Hanks on a podcast I enjoy,  Chinwag with actor Paul Giamatti and philosopher Stephen Asma.

Hanks talked about the phenomenon of "cognitive modernity", which is the period in history when our ancestors' brains evolved the ability to imagine what is not yet real, about 60 to 70 thousand years ago (estimates vary).

It is this ability that distinguishes us from all other known creatures.

It is an opportunity and a burden.

It has given us the standard of living we enjoy.

It is the reason we constantly improve.

It is also the reason we are constantly frustrated by what is not yet here.

It is the reason that, by definition, we all have visions.

And if you're a motivated, visionary leader, you go for them.  That's all it means.


What are the SPECIFIC steps to pursuing your visions?  What gets in the way?  And how do we deal with the frustration of not getting there yet and immediately creating new visions once we do?

Those are the questions we're going to answer in my FREE virtual workshop next week (February 19th), Level Up ⬆️ Your Life.


Won't you join me and a handful of other motivated leaders, executives, entrepreneurs and professionals?  If you relate to these frustrations I guarantee you will feel right at home there.
