Don't allow the world to convince you that you're fragile. You're not fragile. You're strong, capable, flexible, and resilient. You're not broken and you're not going to break. You will succeed, you will fail, you will learn, and you will continue. Know that and believe in yourself.

Want higher standards on your team? Nothing derails culture and damages credibility faster than a leader who doesn’t live by the standards they set for others. Credibility in a leadership role begins with living the standards you create for the people you lead. A simple and universal principle for anyone with in a position of authority: “The standards/rules apply most to the people who set them.” • If you ask others to pay a price, you have to share the cost. • If you expect the team to be disciplined, you must be disciplined. • If you require others to make a sacrifice, you have to give something up. • If you want others to be open-minded, you have to open your mind. Following this principle makes you credible. Not following this principle kills your credibility. It keeps you grounded, requires your involvement, and prevents you from expecting from others what you’re unwilling to do yourself.
