Leadership in a Nutshell

In today's episode of the Leadership in a Nutshell podcast, I want to talk to you guys about the most dangerous division, which is the "us and them" mentality. This is a concept that's really resonated with me since I wrote my original version of the Six Dimensions of Change and it really was a new perspective on how I feel about the dimensions of change. I believe that this mentality was so ingrained in me when I was growing up and I wanted to share the concept in a little different light today. Hopefully, this episode can help you in one way or another as we experience a lot of division in in the world right now.

Discipline weighs ounces, while regret weighs tons." I don't want you carry around tons of weight my friend! Listen, it's going to be painful either way - but which would you rather have? Discipline or regret? Discipline is challenging, yes. But you don't want to get to your death bed and have regret. Let's embrace pain and use it as a driver in our life's purpose.
