Leadership 101: From Self-Realization to Self Actualization

Jessie Paul

Self-Realization

Step 1: Decide who you are

“Life isn't about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself. ”

- George Bernard Shaw

Step 2: Build on your strengths

“Be more dedicated to making solid achievements than in running after swift but synthetic happiness.” - Abdul Kalam

Step 3: Differentiate or Stagnate“The middle of the road is a good place to get run over”

- Mark Kassof

Step 4: Just ask

“Every moment of your life is infinitely creative and the universe is endlessly bountiful. Just put forth a clear enough request, and everything your heart desires must come to you.” - Mahatma Gandhi

Step 5: Control the Variables

“The highest manifestation of life consists in this: that a being governs its own actions. A thing which is always subject to the direction of another is somewhat of a dead thing.”

- St. Thomas Aquinas

Self-Actualization

Step 6: Goal yourself“If you want to be happy, set a goal that commands your thoughts, liberates your energy and inspires your hopes. ”

- Andrew Carnegie

“If you want something done, ask a busy person to do it. The more things you do, the more you can do.”

- Lucille Ball

Step 7: Stretch yourself

Step 8: Brand You

“And I'm not an actress. I don't think I am an actress. I think I've created a brand and a business.”- Pamela Anderson

Step 9: Help others“If each of us hires people who are smaller than we are, we shall become a company of dwarfs. But if each of us hires people who are bigger than we are, we shall become a company of giants. ”

- David Ogilvy

Step 10: Enjoy Maadi

“True happiness is... to enjoy the present, without anxious dependence upon the future.”

- Lucius Annaeus Seneca
