"If your actions inspire others to dream more,
learn more, do more and become more,
you are a leader".
John Quincy Adams

 

What do your actions tell other people about you? Are you confident and approachable or maybe cocky and arrogant?  Trust me, there is fine line between the two and I have been on both sides. You always want to be confident and approachable in your business dealings with customers and other agents alike. As you become more successful you will struggle with this more than anything else. I find the best way for me to deal with not getting to cocky or arrogant is to teach classes at our office to new agents. You will find that some of the things you take for granted every day, they haven't experienced yet. In the process of training them I begin to feel humble and grateful for the distance I have traveled in my own business. The simplest things can frustrate a new agent and then I remember the first time I had to deal with a certain situation and how helpless I felt. I also feel like I have a vested interest in their businesses success. You see, I believe I am helping them and the only way it can be measured is through their success. Does that make us leaders when we do something like that? Well, you will have to ask the people I have taught or the one's you will teach. I believe "they" grade us on our leadership skills. If their success is a good indicator then great, but in the end I believe others determine our leadership ability.

Great Post .. I called a friend and asked the question " am I a jerk ?" loved the answer -- sometimes.. After a little time I understood that sometimes the "Driver" in me can be a bit of a Steamroller Driven By a Blind man ... I love the honesty friend -- for pointing out area that I could be a better person and leader

Terry, It's a great idea to stop and do a self-evaluation once in a while to refocus...or do what Eric did, ask a friend what they think...take a vacation in order to get an attitude adjustment! There is ALWAYS room for improvement! Thank for the great post!

Thanks for posting this. We all need to do a little introspection at least once a week to make sure that we are what we want to be for ourselves and for others.
