Are you busy creating benefits for a company or your own business? Hope not at the cost of losing sight of leaving a real legacy behind. Companies’ memory is like a sieve. They will forget you the moment your engagement is stopped, no matter how big your role was. But you have a chance to live in people’s hearts forever. People will never forget how you make them feel or how you could change their life for better, even many years after a short conversation or an indirect interaction.
Don’t be naive! 80% of our impacts come from 20% of what we do on a daily basis. Set your priorities right. Increase the capacity spent on what really matters.
Real leaders leave not only a big shoe behind to fill but a footprint in people’s lives to be treasured, a legacy to be lived on.
