KEY TAKEAWAYS
If you have purpose in your work, it won’t feel like work.
There is a difference between headwork and heartwork.
Self-imposed limiting barriers are largely based around fear.
There should be a who, a why, and a how of purpose.
No one should ever stop learning.
People get into sticky situations when they haven’t identified what they need from themselves.
Other people can’t make you happy.
The RIO model of leadership = reflect, invest, and optimize.
Tangible outcomes are highly valued from a leader.
