PEOPLE AND RELATIONSHIPS

 


There are people who come into your life sometimes just for a season; they were never meant to stay forever. Sometimes, we find ourselves attached to people we think are there for a lifetime, but they're only meant for a season.

There are also people who enter your life like boosters for a rocket. If you’ve ever watched a rocket launch into space, you’ll notice the boosters fall off when the rocket reaches a certain altitude.

Some people aren’t equipped to handle the altitude you're heading to, so they fall off. Don’t be afraid when they do. They’re not bad people; they just can’t go where you’re going.

Quite Leadership There is power in being calm and measured, in building trust and making decisions coolly, in rising using influence and persuasion and being professional in your approach .   It is born out of the idea that a leader should not need to rant or rage with iron fist, but rather, their power should be implicit .   It should be crystal clear who is in charge, and their authority must result from respect and trust and value creation, rather than fear.   You earn the respect you are shown, partly through a successful career of delivering trophies (value creation) for players, clubs, but perhaps more importantly because of the fact that I respect those I also work with (building r...
