Legacy isn’t a word we use as often in every day speech anymore.
But it is becoming more and more relevant.
In a world where we are marketing to each other through every form of communication and where we are all looking for ways to create the awareness we need to take care of ourselves, the desparate drive for attention drives neurotic behavior.
We want people to know about us and care about what we want, but we don’t have the time to know other people or care about what they want.
It begs the questions, what are we bringing attention to and what happens when it all ends?
A sense of legacy creates purpose.
Purpose modifies mindsets.
Modified mindsets change behavior.
Changed behavior gets better results.
My encouragement to the individuals, the professionals, and the executives of businesses is to give time to consider your legacy, both your personal legacy and your professional legacy.
Ask yourself these questions:
What values do I want people to think of when they think of me, my life, and my work?
What issues or topics to I want myself or my business to be known for positively impacting?
What can I do to ensure that the work I do or my business does extends beyond our existence?
How can I structure my life, my business, and my actions to secure the legacy I want to leave?
I can absolutely assure you from my own experience that these questions will create positive change in your daily experience.
Stay Growthy, my friends.
