KEY TAKEAWAYS

• The Importance of being a leader

Being a leader is not only about leading others but also about learning to lead yourself.

Human beings are not always good at leading themselves and it is easier to lead others forward telling them how to do it than it is to look to lead yourself.

• Work harder on yourself than you do on anything else

Work hard on changing how you see your students, the way you are, the way you react and how you see life and then everything around you changes.

It always starts with you.

Many people around the world are focused on changing circumstances, changing what has happened, changing other people. You can’t change other people you can only change yourself and how you react.

Fundamentally we are in control of our destiny, we have the power to choose what happens and how we react to any situation.

If you work on you, everything changes ask yourself what do I need?, what do I lack?, what do I need to change?

• Learning to lead yourself

Real leaders lead they don’t tell, a real leader puts their white belt on every day.

Real leaders understand and strive to learn, to evolve,  to make changes to grow and learn every day.

In your business, you are the biggest barrier to the business moving forward

You must learn to lead yourself and lead others through what you do.

Ask yourself frequently - What do I need to change to get to where I want to be?

You may need to step outside of yourself and look at where you want to be, stop getting on your own way and move forward to realise your dreams.

As a Martial Arts business you get to change people’s lives, you can serve humanity, serve your community and serve yourself.
