LEADERS TELL A GOOD STORY EVERYDAY AND I CAN TELL YOU WHY

“Nothing has the power to change your life like a word that rings forever in your heart. The story you tell yourself daily will shape your emotional well being, your attitude, your daily approach to life and every relationship you experience. Taking the time to intentionally craft the stories you tell yourself  will increase your ability to live the life your story describes exponentially. Telling a good story to your team will give them a sense of hope toward your intended shared progress as well as strategic activities to make it happen. Tell a good story every day!” J Loren Norris

LEADERS ARE KEEPERS OF THE FOUNDATIONAL NARRATIVES OF SOCIETY

“From the dawn of civilization, elites have made decisions for everyone else to live by. There have been equitable and egalitarian societies but they are not long tolerated by those who fancy themselves the ruling class. Feudalism it seems is the preferred form of structure for those who consolidate power and exert control. History tends to repeat itself in cycles. Those cycles need not be as lengthy or devastating if we learn from past mistakes by taking copious notes and applying what we learn. Leaders must be the keepers of the foundational narratives when those with less than noble motives begin to reshape the narrative for their own ends.” J Loren Norris

LEADERS HELP THEIR PEOPLE IDENTIFY PRIORITIES, FOCUS AND ACTION THE TRIFECTA OF SUCCESS

“If you are not willing to do what it takes to succeed rest assured, success will NOT hunt you down. Three things required to find success are priorities, focus and action. No one can do those last two  for you. The Preto principle says 20% of the tasks you commit your effort and energy toward produce 80% of the results you achieve. Identify those two out of every ten, give them all you’ve got for the next six months and see what success tastes like for you.” J Loren Norris

LEADERS KNOW GOOD IS NOT BEST BUT COULD BE A DISTRACTION WHICH CORRUPTS FOCUS

‘Allowing the things which seem easily attainable, short term pleasing, and popular to stand in the way of things which require diligence, discipline and undistracted focus will delay your greatest potential success. Good is the most common obstacle to greatness. Leaders who settle for good enough in themselves or their team will struggle with greatness at the highest level achievable by them. Focus on the greatest possible outcome of you, do your best according to your uniqueness and expect the same of those around you.” J Loren Norris

LEADERS KNOW THE POWER OF A CLEARLY ARTICULATED VISION IS A GUARD AGAINST DIVERSION

“If you have a vision, you know where you’re going. Before you have a vision, you must know the answer to this complicated question: ‘What do you want?!’ If you cannot answer that question you will not be able to avoid distractions because every opportunity good or bad will come to you with its own appeal. When you have pounded on the question ‘what do you want?’ and come through considerable effort to the answer, articulate that in a vision. Suddenly things in life will begin to fall into place and all your efforts will be met with both incredible resistance and unsolicited help. Stay the course. Hold the vision. Hold the image. Lead the narrative.” J Loren Norris

LEADERS WITH GREAT POTENTIAL BECOME TARGETS OF THE CONQUERERS

“Leaders are generational. Leadership style has its own DNA, nature, residue and fingerprint. When  potential is evident in the leaders in training which would make them a threat to an outside competitor, that potential makes them a target. The rulers who want to unseat you will do everything in their power to derail and replace everything you have deposited in them. It is the only way to captivate the potential leader’s energy and prevent their return to your worldview. By the way this is a centuries old strategy which has been successful almost every time.” J Loren Norris

LEADERS KNOW THE VALUE OF A SURE FOUNDATION FOR SMOOTH OPERATION

“If you build it they will come… maybe not. But if you build it on a sure foundation it will last is a truth more reliable than a bank note. That foundation for leaders is a multiplicity of factors such as bylaws, standard operating procedures, hiring practices, organizational vision and core values. The one foundation equally important is that of relationships. Especially if a leader is married or in a committed relationship, the well crafted foundation or lack of one will prove to be the saving grace or the mark imminent destruction.” J Loren Norris

LEADERS LOVE

“If the path to your success leads only to your bank account, you might be an influencer but I wouldn’t call you a leader. Leaders love. They love people more than money, helping more than hoarding, integrity more than income. Someone wearing the badge of leader whose end game is a boost in their personal net worth at any cost, at others’ expense, at the risk of corruption is not a leader but a con artist… IMHO. A real leader loves people and often sacrifices their own best interest in the short term for the long term benefit of others.” J Loren Norris

ONE COMMISSION OF LEADERSHIP IS CONFIDENCE

“Confidence is more than an expectation for a leader to possess and demonstrate, it is also a bonus received for a team which performs well. When a leader can demonstrate and instill confidence they can drive results far above expectations. Leaders who clearly articulate the cause for the confidence they have in their team members illustrate the value each team member brings. Leaders who build the confidence their team has in them do so by leading with integrity and consistency. The reward is more confidence, internally and externally. Confidence like this will change the story others tell about you and the story you tell yourself.” J Loren Norris

​FEAR RULES THE DAY UNTIL LEADERS STEP IN WITH COURAGE MULTIPLIED THROUGH MINDSET

“Your attitude is both your choice and your best defense against the fear others use to make you more predictable. Fear will rule the day if you let it. Those who have designs on controlling your work, your wealth and your way of life will use fear as a tool of control over you.  A leader who has faced fear and stood strong against it has developed their courage muscle and you need to have them  in your corner. When the team begins to adopt the mindset of a courageous leader, the force of courage is multiplied. Great leaders lead with a courage based mindset rather than controlling through fear. Be that kind of leader” J Loren Norris
