Brené Brown said, "Perfectionism is a twenty-ton shield that we lug around thinking it will protect us when, in fact, it's the thing that's really preventing us from taking flight." And in this week's episode, John Maxwell is showing how that's true — and how acknowledging your flaws frees you to become a high road leader.
After his lesson, Mark Cole and Traci Morrow explore practical ways to develop self-compassion, laugh at yourself, and believe in your unique potential, so you can apply John's insights to your life and leadership.
Key takeaways:
- Confident humility allows you to believe in yourself while still questioning your strategies.
- If you don't show yourself kindness, you won't be able to extend it to anyone else.
- The world needs you to embrace your humanness and step fully into your unique leadership greatness.
