21st Century Leadership Road Kill

How much will you invest in your personal development this year?

The best investment you will ever make in your life with your money is your investment in you. On one hand, extraordinary leaders understand this basic premise. As a result, they almost always have an amazing story, life, family, and friends because they habitually reinvest in both their hard and soft skills over longer periods of time. 

On the other hand, good to great leaders falter because of time horizon and investment constraints. In other words, they lack the habit of investing which causes them to miss out on the compounding effects of personal growth. 

Realize that the world is shifting towards an extraordinary leadership mindset. Leaders who refuse to invest in their own leadership development and life skills will end up like 21st century road kill. Therefore, put your money where your mouth is. Remain congruent with your thoughts, words, and actions.
