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?

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...
