When our society was suddenly forced into extended periods of distancing, isolation and quarantine, it forced us as a whole to turn inward and reflect on ourselves, our individual values and how these factors could help improve our social circumstances. This is the philosophy at the foundation of conscious economics — the view of what a human economy would be if it were based on self-reflection and realization, rather than self-assertion.

Anyone who has worked on the lower rungs of the corporate ladder will know just how valuable and career changing a leader can be.

Every single one of us has the potential within us to become a better version of ourselves to help elevate self and the people around us, but the difference between those who hit the mark and those who don’t, is the effort required to fully understand and acquire the knowledge, action the resources, and be accountable to the intended outcome.
The right kind of leader consistently inspires, motivates, elevates and values everyone up, down, and across the food chain. When a leader can recognize that their employees are their company, and that its success is determined by their belief and commitment to its greater mission, then this is what determines longevity and meaningful impact.

Interrupt your pattern. For the longest time, I struggled in the afternoons to stay inspired and excited about my day. This is when I began recognizing that leaving time for pattern interrupts throughout my day began to re-ignite my appreciation for life. I encourage you to do something out of the blue: take a drive or walk down a country road, get a spontaneous massage, or shut it down and go to the golf course. It’s often the pattern interrupts that reignite inspiration and gratitude for life in us.
