Key Takeaways

Leaders often short-change their personal growth to hit organizational goals.
“If you can’t find contentment and joy with what you have today, you’re not going to find it by hustling. You’re not going to find it by reaching some destination or goal.”
Always striving for goals robs us of ever experiencing contentment and reflecting on how we can improve.
“Stop denying your weaknesses and start owning them.” Leaders should seek feedback and actually address the areas of their life that require growth.
Your personal growth will directly impact how well or poorly you lead others.
“Your ability to hear and receive truth will never exceed your ability to hear and receive grace.”
“It’s not the absence of hustle; it’s about the heart behind your hustle.”
How are you giving your people a reason to stay beyond a number on a paycheck?
