It's Tuesday at 2:00pm! (PST Time: I live and work from Southern California)
13 weeks ago, I shared with you a short post entitled "Why I Walk". I shared it with you simply because my goal is to encourage leaders to be better and to last longer. Walking has really helped me over the past few years, and I decided to share with you WHY.
Many of you responded with questions, but then you began to share how walking has helped you as well. That first week turned into 12 weeks in a series I'm calling, "Why I Lead".
These past 12 weeks gives you a glimpse into some of the things I've been challenged to do as a leader, as well as some of the things I discovered along the way. This isn't my entire list, in fact I could probably go another 12 weeks sharing things I'm learning, but I thought it would be a good time to STOP.
If you want to see any of the past posts, here they are.

The reason I'm stopping, is because now I want to learn from YOU. What have you discovered in your life that has helped you in leadership, helped you in life, that makes you better, and hopefully will help you to last longer in leadership?
I'd like to take the next number of weeks and share some of your stories, but I need you to help me.
Here's the format:
#1) What Did You Discover? What's the TIP?
#2) Why Does It Make a Difference In Your Life?
#3) Describe What You Do.
#4) Share Where The Discovery Came To You Or How You Started.

Send me an email HERE and I'll reply to you. I want to gather your stories and share them with our readers.
The goal here is to encourage each other!
I often listen to a podcast by Tim Ferriss. At the beginning of every show, he says the following:
"Each episode, I deconstruct world-class performers from eclectic areas (investing, sports, business, art, etc.) to extract the tactics, tools, and routines you can use. This includes favorite books, morning routines, exercise habits, time-management tricks, and much more."
I don't listen to every show, but when I do I'm inspired, I'm challenged, and I often learn something new.
I'd like to create a platform for Leaders, Global Leaders, Coaches, Global Coaches and my huge list of friends, colleagues, and partners to come together to continue to learn from each other.
