We all have hard seasons.

Stages where the ground on which we stand seems to crumble, nothing seems to be in our favor and the winter seems endless.

To know pain, to endure suffering and to feel as though the trial will never end is to be fully human. And to become most intimate with life itself.

“A bad day for the ego is a great day for the soul”, though.

From what I can tell—and who truly knows the way the world works—that which appears to unmake us is the very season that rebuilds us.

Our pain, in truth, becomes a purifier. Difficulty softens us, unmasks us and opens us—allowing the gifts of wisdom, humility and patience to become our new way of being.

Yes, it’s true: you’re being watched. And so am I.

Each day, in all we do -- at home and at work and on the street -- people are watching how we speak and the way we behave and the quality of our integrity.

The best leaders influence their followers by understanding that every move they make sends a signal to their team on what behavior sets the standard. In my leadership keynotes for fast-growing companies I share the term “LBE”: Lead By Example and note that it’s the opposite of CBE: Complaint, Blame and Excuse (which gets a leader nowhere).

So yes, people do watch what we do, even if we fall into the trap of thinking that they don’t. And our reputation is based on the richness of that doing.
