Every great leader who has used their position to positively influence those around them is a by-product of someone.
These are the rare people, ones who, when they speak, empower others to push past their own boundaries.
These people are not necessarily rich or influential in culture but are willing to stand for what they believe, even in the face of opposition. They are the ones who say what they mean and mean what they say.
I know that time is a resource in high demand. So I’ll be quick.
1. Grab the closest piece of paper to you.
2. Think of those friends, pastors, authors, relatives, etc., who have had a positive influence on your life.
3. Write their names, titles and how they played a part in the person you are today.
Now share the results with a close friend, and enjoy the memories. Chances are, you are on someone else’s list because of the people on your list.
