Carry me away

Do you ever get carried away? If so - ask yourself this:

"Who does the carrying?"

Do you get carried away by other people? Do you get swept up in their ideas, their plans, their enthusiasm? Or do you get carried away by yourself?

It is far to easy to be carried away by other people. We love to be around people who are enthusiastic, who are fun, who have ideas and who act on these ideas. The issue is that when we get carried away by others, we may lose our perspective and our own goals, dreams and wishes.

We need both leaders and followers to make our sense of community work and to make our communities prosper and better places. However, there are times when you should be the follower and there are times when you should be the leader. If you get carried away by becoming super excited about the possibilities that might lie ahead and you start going for broke - convinced that everything you touch will turn to gold, you will attract others to your cause. This is great leadership and you will benefit many with your leadershi9p.

However, you get carried away by the unholy trinity of demons:

•Fear

•Uncertainty

•Doubt

An absolutely HUGE part of owning your life and living like you matter revolves around taking control of the stories you tell yourself. You see each of us controls the narrative in our head. Why not choose to be carried away by angels instead of demons? If the angels carry you away, then you will lead others to a good place, but if the demons take you away, you will lead others to a dark place. The choice is yours.
