admin - Leadership Secret Five: Honor Success and Celebrate Victory

In our last blog post we covered how enhancing an ownership of purpose and your financial mastery can enhance your ability to lead more effectively. In this post we’ll look at the next core quality of leadership: Honoring success and celebrating victory.


Great leaders are constantly finding ways to honor their key people and celebrate their success. Extraordinary leaders understand that there’s only one thing that makes people happy long term and that’s progress. Progress equals happiness. Even if you are not where you want to be, if you can begin to make an immediate improvement in your body, in your relationship, in your company, in your division—if you can do something physical, something real that people can see and measure—you’ll find that people will start to tap into the power of progress.


The real question to answer is, do you tend to exclusively focus on what people fail to achieve? Or do you capture their victories and honor them publicly? We all know that great leaders know to correct in private and praise in public. Waiting to praise until the ultimate outcome is achieved is a significant mistake made by many good leaders who have not yet tapped into their true greatness.


Every mother knows if she’s ever going to get her child out of diapers she can’t wait until the ultimate victory when they make it to the toilet with no spills. You have to be able to cheer along the way. As graphic as this metaphor may be, many of us don’t realize that great leaders are not just made, they are discovered, rewarded for progress, and honored so consistently that their hunger to become better is never-ending and because of this they ultimately start achieving results that few could ever expect.


Great leaders find the way to appreciate progress in themselves and progress in others. This is also the antidote to the sense of overwhelm that so many people feel when the task is so large. How would you rate your constant and never-ending search for the good that people are accomplishing? The progress that they are making? What actions would you take to start acknowledging more progress to deepen your leadership capacity and your bond with your people?

  Seeing Only Red in a Sea of Blue   In my talks, I often play this game with the audience. I ask them to look around the room and count how many red shirts there are. After half-a-minute, I tell them to close their eyes. I ask them, “Are you ready with your answer?” They all reply with a resounding yes. Then I ask them, “Okay. How many blue shirts did you see?” They burst out laughing. And they try to guess. But no one gets the right answer. Why? Because they weren’t focused on the blue shirts but on the red. The point of this little exercise is to show them that every reality, every situation, every circumstance always has many sides. But we only see one side! Always.   You’re Not a Grasshopper   Let me tell you one of my all-time favorite stories in the Bible. The Israelites who escaped Egypt (think “Ten Commandments” with Charlton Heston) were now at the edge of the Promised Land. Not knowing what it was like, they sent 12 spies to scout the land i...

Allana Pratt, Intimacy Expert - My boyfriend’s messaging strange women

Question: Do you have any idea why a man would start instant messaging strange woman after being in a five year relationship. Said he was “stupid” and wasn’t physical with anybody. I guess you can say I have trust issues. Answers: Ouch! I am so sorry. Do I have any idea why? Here is what I have learned, first off I am really sorry because that really hurts. If you have trust issues especially, that would hurt and sting even more. So first something about trust and then something about men. Trust: When we trust, it’s not that we trust someone to be perfect. That sets us up for failure because no one is perfect and you can’t control anybody. That is insanity if we try to control another and put all of our power – making sure they be a certain way to so that we are safe. Instead, find that safety and trust inside you. That safety being that capacity to discern and know that come what may, you’ve got your own back – you can take care of yourself. It takes a lot of pressure off of other...

Allana Pratt, Intimacy Expert - To MILF or not to MILF this Mothers Day

I don’t know if you have those to-do piles that just sit there, you WANT to get to them, you MEAN to get to them, and you OUGHT to get to them… while this video was in one of those piles. It took less than 10 minutes to do. Why did I put it off? Well if you’re like me, we only procrastinate with things we either don’t really want to do, or doing them will make us have to face something we’re not ready to face, internally or externally. We’re literally choosing not to face it and calling it procrastination. So I guess I didn’t want to face/own being a MILF. Really owning my badass queen Harley boots, pole dancing, MILF essence. I don’t even know what I’ve really made it all mean… just that I’m WAY more potent than I realize and my erotic creature is WAY overdue coming out to play, to create adventures, to embrace life and to shine!! So you know I call my women’s membership Redefining Sexuality , because I sure don’t care for the definition of sex or sexy… it’s void of honor, care and ...
