Centered Leaders Know the Difference Between Mission and Ego

How do you know when your vision has crossed the line into your ego? Is what you want part of a noble plan or a symptom of a simple pain?

Centered leaders test their vision against their values to separate character from ambition.

They do this by:

- Asking people they trust to give them very honest feedback
- Checking in on their values: are they living them or just aspiring to them?

- Comparing their actions to their values
- Comparing their vision to the character they want to be remembered for

Centered leaders know the difference between their mission and their ego.

How will you stay centered in your quest for success today?
