Are you going to influence the world today? What do you think about starting with a single person - you?
Getting what you want in life begins when you know what you want, when you believe that you can get it, and when others believe in your ability to accomplish your goal. Does that sound like you?
Simon Sinek calls it, "The Golden Circle."
If you're like most folks, you spend a good amount of your time focusing on "What" you want and "How" you're going to get it. Your "Why" tends to arrive last.
When you think in that way, you'll find yourself wandering in the direction of what you think you want. And, nobody can help you get there because there is no belief to follow.
On the other hand, when you begin with Why, the How becomes automatic, and the What tends to define itself. When you know your Why, you have a belief in your goals, and that is something others can follow with true joy.
That's how you influence the world.
