Let's start with the fact that you are already spending time, energy and money-everyday.  The question is: "How often do you clearly define the results you're seeking before you invest in something?"

I find that leaders are much more likely to do this for their organizations than for themselves.  They invest in technology and infrastructure to increase efficiencies. They invest in research and innovation to maintain relevance and increase impact. They invest in workforce training to match skill sets with organizational needs. 

But what about you?  What would be the greatest result for investing in yourself? 

What if, in these exhausting and uncertain times, you could: Show up everyday with positive energy?  Respond to challenges and surprises with an openness to possibilities and opportunities?  Sustain healthy personal and professional relationships?

How about this for an ROI?
The ability to Create More Success with Less Stress.

Yes, I'm saying that investing in yourself will result in more success for both you and your organization, although it may not feel like it at first.  And it's true no matter your position.

So, what's the secret to creating more success with less stress? The simple (but not easy) answer is effective thought management.

Here's one way to look at it.

The bottom line is, you get more of what you focus on.

So why not invest in a process that will align your thoughts, feelings and actions with the results you want to create?

Passionate leaders create an energetic focus on actions intended to positively influence both themselves and others toward a common purpose, vision or desired outcome.

What thoughts are holding you back from getting better results?
