“Just because an influencer has millions of followers and millions of downloads does not imply they are an effective and genuine leader. Committing yourself to lead with influence not to seek the fame of being an influencer is hard work with a more desirable payoff than fame alone.” J Loren Norris ALL TRIANGLES ARE SHAPES. NOT ALL SHAPES ARE TRIANGLES. ALL LEADERS ARE INFLUENCERS. NOT ALL INFLUENCERS ARE LEADERS.
Influence is the most powerful tool of leadership. In fact, one cannot lead without the ability to influence. One can manage, manipulate or even demand certain behavior and outcomes, but that is not good leadership. However, just because people pay attention to you, watch you as you buy your way to fame or make a fool of yourself for pure attention’s sake, you may gain the appearance of influence, the affects of influence and the reputation of ‘influencer’ but that does not equate to quality leadership. As followers, we all must endeavor to discern the motives and intent of influencers before trusting them to lead us. Are they amassing ‘likes’ and ‘followers’ for the fame and fortune it produces? Are they people who will add value, insight, empowerment and encouragement to our lives? Do they truly care about the people that follow them? As leaders, we must constantly evaluate our own motives and intentions to ensure we are leading from a good place. If you need people to like you and validate you as a leader, you have insecurity issues you need to address before leading. If you lose all your courage and leadership moxie the first time someone is critical of your style or content, you may have a position of leadership and yet more room to grow your leadership skills. “Just because an influencer has millions of followers and millions of downloads does not imply they are an effective and genuine leader.

Insuperable Vision Workshop - Audio Download with worksheets Day after day I meet people who are struggling just to make ends meet. They are adrift in this vast sea of humanity holding on to their job, their family, their home, and their car with all they've got. They see their life experiences and education as the last hope to find their purpose and identity. They gather, fill and stuff all the money they can into every opportune investment. Yet they are empty, frustrated, angry and just plain fed up. We have all experienced that moment; when we find yourself stuck in traffic, yelling at random strangers to do what they wish they could... but can't... GO! The idea that life can be better than it is today is like the flame of a candle fighting for all its worth to stand against the tempest. We all want a better life. Even when life is good, we want more. That idea, that flame, is the hope that lives in the hearts and minds of all of us. Should that flame be extinguished, hope itself may well go with it. It is the rut of hopelessness that traps many would be shining stars and buries that glow from the sight of the world. It is the rut of hopelessness that extinguishes that flame. Lives that would have been a beacon to the wandering are lost at sea themselves. Inspirations of success that would have been the voices crying out to all who suffer are hidden away in their own stale lives, they cannot share who they are or what the world needs from them. It is my passion to help you find your purpose. I want to see you become successful, but more than that to be free! Without vision people perish. Without vision, we seem to be lost, mind numb robots following the herd into the abyss that is everyday life. We do not live intentionally without a vision for our future. We do not live passionately without a vision for our future. We do not live productively without a vision for our future. We certainly cannot lead without a vision for our future and a vision for the future of those we lead. This audio course will inspire and instruct you to create a vision which will become a significant driving force in your life. Author
