The attached video is a quick reminder of how important it is to know where you are going and what you are up to…know and be clear about your commitments. If you just work hard and keep working, working, working without a clear sense of what is important to you and why you are doing what you are doing, then you will be easily detoured and also susceptible to burn out.
For example if you are leading a significant re-organization and are challenged by the chaos of change and the challenges of the never ending emotional issues involved in the human side of the equation, being clear about your overarching commitment will keep you focused…what is it? A vibrant and sustainable future for the organization? A promotion and upward trajectory of you leadership path? Keeping your commitments in front of you helps keep you on track and brings meaning and purpose to your endeavors. Meaning is, in and of itself inspiring and will keep you and your leadership vital and vibrant.
What are your major commitments..personal and career?
