Daily Basis Habits Leaders Must Commit to

Elevate your leadership from good to high performing with these three simple habits.

If you have any inclination to make a big impact in life, it’s a no-brainer that becoming a great leader is a necessity. There are many differing opinions and disciplines of leadership.

However, one thing that isn’t up for debate in the leadership arena is the necessity to have skills such as being a collaborator, team player, innovator, and emotionally intelligent individual.

While those common areas are highlighted often, what’s not often mentioned are the small intangible habits of creating a high performing leader.

Becoming a high performing leader starts with committing to these three habits on a daily basis.

1. Create and stick to a personal philosophy.

A personal philosophy is necessary for high performing leaders because you don’t want to waste mental energy on things that don’t serve you, the team, nor the mission as a whole.

Your personal philosophy helps calibrate an identity for the type of leader you’re becoming.

What follows afterward is crystal-clear clarity which makes you more effective in your daily decision making.

Your team along with others will respect and rave about you more because you’re consistent with your actions and what you stand for.

Lastly, you’re going to improve your health and energy levels because it’s easier to say “no” and establish boundaries that guard your energy so you can show up as your best self.

To get started with creating your personal philosophy, start with the end in mind and then reverse engineer the process.

Jot down the type of leader you need to become in order to attain the type of success that you want.

Next, ruthlessly assess yourself and see how you currently stand up to that end goal character.

Once you identify the gaps in characters, immediately take action to bridge the gap between who you currently are and who you’re becoming.
