I want to talk to you about inspiration versus perspiration. Right? Perspiration is hard work. Inspiration is being lit up, being excited. What is inspired? Inspired, right. The root of the word is really about breathing in.
Breathing in life alive.
So when people are inspired, they are lit up. They are excited, they are enthusiastic, they are moved by something, right?
They feel something.
Inspiring leaders are great at getting other people to be excited about something, specifically about the future. And with regard to leaders about the future, that includes their company, their service, their business, whatever they're working on. So inspiring leaders get people to a positive emotional state again and again. They do that by being in touch with their own emotional state. They do that by sharing the vision for the company. They do that by engaging people, by being bolder. So what you want to do, if you want people to be more inspired and work less hard, right? Inspiration versus perspiration. Then you'll get good at getting other people to feel good about the future. Be bolder. Share your vision freely. Use emotion in that. These are the things, these are the toolkit that help leaders to be regular leaders, be inspiring leaders and leave people in an inspiring state. When you have people in an inspired state, excited, lit up, moved, hopeful about the future, all of those are positive emotions about the future related to your company. Then everything else comes easier. The pitches, the proposals, things like that, the action with the team. All of those things get easier when you start with inspiration.
