LEAVE your MARK

Just this morning, I offered up The Character of Business, replete with links to thoughts around the character of teaching and to Character, Purpose, Unity, Congruence... and more. I humbly recommend the scoot about... and the read and reflect.

That said, I have long suggested in my speaking, coaching, teaching, training, facilitating, and mentoring that we must consider our MARK... we must needs best consider the MARK we want to make and leave.

Your MARK

Your MARK is about a deeper sense of branding and delivery. It is your best rudder, anchor, ballast and sail while sailing forward amidst trial and triumph alike. Knowing such advances both your Congruence and Purposefulness. It helps us better carve our path. So, consider:

• MATTER... what matters most to you? Think of Purpose. Explore on it. Reflect on it. Practice courageous Candor with yourself in doing so. Spend time on this. For what do you truly care? For me, what matters most is the advancement of Humanity as strength at home, school, work, business, community and life. As I often say, "Humanity rocks. Inhumanity sucks." This is not kumbaya for me. Our best heroism is found in our Humanity.... and our understanding of all the strengths of Character that that brings to the table. This matters in all that I play, study, practice, work and serve. My work and play is about moving on this. Period.

• ADVANCE... in broad strokes, how do you deliver on that? How do you move the proverbial needle on same? For me, I speak, teach, train, educate, facilitate, coach, mentor, sing, dance, box, cartoon, write, blog, vlog and create in order to advance same.

• RECIPIENTS... who do you most and best serve in moving said needle. For me, it is those Activants; Leaducators, Communitrepreneurs and Emergents.
• KINDLE... what specific talents, work, goods and/or services do you provide that manifest and deliver on your advancing ... where you clearly identify what you put out into the world? For me here, I would identify specific keynotes, seminars, workshops, courses, programs, coaching, consulting and mentoring I provide... as well as TUGtv and more.

Making and leaving your MARK requires you to set it. I humbly suggest the time and energy taken to do so. It is your life and your MARK.

Peace, purpose and prosperity...
