- Musing about…serving your way to becoming an influencer.
- When I look at the most influential man I’ve known, this was how he lived.
- When I look today at colleagues who I trust and admire, this is what they’re doing.
- Their social media updates are filled with resources, not just self-promotion.
- They serve in community, highlighting the great work of others and actively connecting people to each other.
- They have a mission much bigger than themselves.
- Examples abound…
- A woman of celebrity influence serving those with rheumatoid arthritis.
- A man of financial influence sleeping under bridges to serve the homeless.
- One reason I’m fueled so deeply in my community work is I’m surrounded by leaders who build their authority through a true desire to help others.
- They see people in need. They see how they can help. They take action. Again and again.
- Growing your influence in business flows from creating meaningful other-focused connections with those you serve…and with partners to support you in doing what you do best.
- Along the way, communicate — keeping your tribe updated and sharing the value of what you do…expands your ability to help more people.
- There’s no shortage of tips to grow your influence — my publisher shared these 50 ways to build your platform in 5 minutes/day.
- These tips take on new meaning when seen through the eyes of making the lives of others better.
- This week, look at how you can steadily grow your influence…by asking how you can consistently help more of the people you’re here to serve.
- Musing about staying connected to what we’re serving…
- My friend, Mark Silver, wrote, “Sometimes I'm given the incredible gift of remembering that I'm just here to serve the Divine message of love, peace, mercy, justice and freedom, and that all of the striving for worldly accomplishment is not really what it's about.”

- Family met Olympian Shawn Johnson this week as she shared her message to get kids moving! Don't think my daughter will ever wash her now autographed team jacket again =)
- "I'm in this sport to become the next Shawn Johnson. I'm not here to copy or become someone else. I want to be my own person and make history because I'm being me." ~Shawn Johnson
- We all have a bigger why behind our call to serve…connecting to this daily fuels more profound results.
- My mentor was a servant of justice. He said a simple daily prayer: “God, help me make a contribution to a just and peaceful world.”
- This week, examine how your work is simply a channel… toward greater service to something much bigger than your personal success.
