Leadership spiritual development

Mountains

Seeing your child growing and leaning in is wonderful.

Leadership spiritual development is taking a detour, yet still headed in the same direction.

Leadership.

Spirit.

Parenting is leadership.

Everyone understands emotion, responsibility, investment/sacrifice (same thing depending how you see it), and hope.

Seeing our Son’s updates from the other side of our planet feels peaceful.

He’s growing and blooming.

He always has been.

And this is another, deeper and wider layer of growth (like a tree ring).

Grateful for it all.

Note: World-class leadership requires world-class gratitude.

Spiritual legacy?

Leaning towards not having anything to add to Mid Life Celebration except the monetary buffer.

Backstage note: When i wrote the goal on page 86 (question 9), consciously knew i was understating what i believed.

Why?

To keep hope alive (and not sound egotistical).

It wasn’t until a couple years after publishing that i thought of a revision for the book.

Instead of, “I have a decent (at least 90 days) rainy day fund.”

Finally realized i could have (should have) written it this way: “I have a perpetual rainy day fund.”

It was inspired when it finally became a personal reality.

i always knew my goal was to finally stop worrying about money.

But quietly i wanted to know if it was possible for me. And if so, how long it would it take.

Turns out it was possible far sooner than expected.

Thank you, Universe.
