“You see things; and you say “Why”?
.
But I dream things that never were; and I say “Why not”?” – George Berrnard Shaw
How many times have you been asked, “Why would you do that”?
How many times have people said, “Why don’t you just ____________”?
If you’re a leader who sees possibilities, while others wonder what in the world you see, life gets extremely interesting! You’re hell-bent on changing the status-quo in your industry, community or the world while leading an Amazing Life Journey!
Does it get any more exciting than your Vision for Possibilities!?!
.
Early in my career, people would tell me why my various ideas “couldn’t get done”. Once our teams started getting “can’t be done” projects done, it caught the attention of each President at the F500’s where I’d worked. I was fortunate to work with Presidents and their teams to actually implement “possibilities” that increased Net Income by tens of millions of dollars each year.’
Every “job” after that was to create and implement “that which couldn’t be done”.
Professional Example: The largest school system in the United States began using an idea I had created and our team built at a F100. Nine months earlier, the IT Directors while in one room, told me, “we’ll never be able to do that”.
Why did we do this, “can’t be done project”? In 3 years, it saved the company approximately $37M and opened the door for a series of other multi-million dollar cost-saving projects using the same core concepts. Yes; everyone was now fully onboard!
Personal Example: Why did Celine Dion do it? Why did she start dating a 46-year-old man when she was 18, that she eventually married (Rene Angelil)? Unusual? Sure!
Why did she do it? Both claimed to have an amazing marriage that lasted 3 times longer than the average marriage and didn’t end in divorce! Just maybe:
- Their Holistic-DMQ was high
- They found the important things in life (one wasn’t solely ages)
- They seized their Window of Amazing and wouldn’t trade it for anything.
.
It did end after 25 years of marriage when Rene passed away from cancer. Nothing lasts forever. Have you had 7 or more Amazing (not just “Good”) years with a Life Partner?
The next time you ask yourself or someone asks you, “Why would you do that”? Think about it deeply. It just might be an incredible opportunity for you and others, either professionally, personally or both!
Why would you do anything that isn’t a social norm?
Just maybe, you’re Uorthodoxly-Unique… and that’s how you plan to live your life!
.
Helping others… why would you do that?
Just maybe, you’re a Holistic, Collaborative & Appreciative Leader who the best leaders in the world, admire!
.
Ready to get started?
Want to actually (not just talk about it) make a significant difference in 1,000’s of lives?
If “Yes”, and you’d like our teams to raise $84,000+ per month for your favorite Non-Profits, DM me here or on LinkedIn!
Simple! Significant! Swift!
Who changes the world? I believe it’s almost exclusively the Top-7%. They are the only ones with the Talent Portfolios and social consciences needed to actually implement significant positive social impact.
If you believe you’re one of these executives, we’d love to explore possible opportunities.
