“Like beauty is in the mind of the beholder, thought is in the mind, love is in the heart, and truth is in the spirit of a leader. “ ~ Debra J. Slover
Being mindful that you need assistance with your leadership skills is the first step toward eliminating any blocks that you may have developed over the years. The thing about leadership that is more important than managing people or projects, it is guiding and encouraging greatness in yourself and others.
To be an exemplary leader, you must first be able to lead yourself. If you cannot lead yourself, allowing your inner voice to guide you through your life, you will be unable to inspire others toward that which they wish to achieve. If you are allowing your reality to invade possibility, you will be stuck. Why? Because reality is subjective, and it can always be changed.
If you hope to increase your leadership skills, start with yourself. Allow the leader within to blossom fully before you take on the responsibility of helping others build their leadership skills. At some point, you will experience an inner balance that you did not think was achievable, that is the point in which you can start to share true leadership.
True leadership is a choice that you make. You can choose to practice leadership in your life, or you can choose another path. It's up to you to claim your power so that you can focus your energy on igniting your (or someone else's) passion and then help yourself or others express a unique purpose and aim.
Many people see leadership as a way to gain power, or achieve goals, but true leadership is simply a way of living your life authentically by accepting responsibility for all your choices in order to express your unique purpose and aim Once this is realized and accepted, your leadership skills will flourish as a natural progression of your increased awareness and unique purpose and aim.

Give Yourself a Great Start To The New Year
Looking ahead to the New Year and how you expect it to unfold, can be tempting to get absorbed in whatever is currently trending, or whatever is “doom-ing and gloom-ing” at the moment. After all, there’s plenty going on in the world, in celebrity lives, in the constant push of the media, to keep one engaged or preoccupied. Which is great, if such brings you joy.

“Weight-Train” Your Brain
I have a new cell phone. I didn’t want a new cell phone; I was perfectly happy with my 2020 cell phone, but it wasn’t happy with me. Its connector charging port was ailing. Failing, actually, the service tech told me. And besides, it was an old phone, what did I expect? Old? This to a woman who is more than content, read “thrilled,” to wear outdated fashions just because she likes them. And would willingly keep computers way past their supposed “shelf life.” Sigh. OK, fine,
