Poignant truths  to remember for all leaders

You are human and not a machine and so is your team.

You are here to lead, not here to be liked by all. 

You will also make mistakes,  and that is how you learn

You will adapt as you cannot control everything, some things are unavoidable and  sooner you  acknowledge  it the better.

You will be challenged by a few in inexplicable ways , but these experiences will empower you.

Your teams will outgrow you in time, even if you have invested your all in them .

You will learn how to sustain in the letting go , that is the way of evolving with change.

And most of all the higher you climb the lonelier you will feel.

Be prepared to manage  it.
