DAY 67 - MODEL THE LEADER

I hope you’re following along as we countdown the final 100 days of 2022 - you can join us anytime. Learn more about the program HERE.

Who in your industry would be a role model for you?  Someone who stands out because of their knowledge, passion, and positive influence.   What would happen if you modeled some of those behaviors?  

If you’ve read books by some of the most influential CEOs in business, many of them reveal that at one time or another, as they were coming up through the ranks, they identified someone as a role model they could follow.  Why?  So, they too could be the best at their craft.  What would happen if you studied people who have mastered their industry, emulated their positive behaviors, and learned as much as you could from their actions?  You’d be way ahead of the competition!

In Napoleon Hill’s book, Think and Grow Rich, Hill studied the habits of business moguls of his time.  First published in 1937, this remains one of the most read business books surpassing 100 million copies sold some 80 years after it was written.  While some of the examples from the original text are outdated, the premise remains true – find a leader in your industry and model their actions, passions, and expertise.  

Who do you view as a role model?  What can you do to begin to mirror those behaviors?  Better yet, if you know them, ask them if they would be willing to mentor you!
