The increasing speed of change requires super hero ability to stay ahead of the changes and to be able to navigate and anticipate and succeed. There is one forgotten secret weapon for many established leaders and that is ‘to remain a student’.

Do you remember when you first started your current job, your business or even when you were in a new relationship?

Remember the intense energy you and the opportunities you saw everywhere like x-ray vision for growth, expansion and a positive future?

Then over time you began to ease into the realities of your role, your business began to grow and your relationship settled into a lovely routine. What happens to many of us is that we become complacent and even apathetic in our approach and our work and life becomes dull and uninspired.

That is unless you actively seek to be an ongoing student.

If you look at the leaders, the business and the relationships that are thriving right now in the chaotic reality of our world right now it is because they are tapping into resources to help him or her reconnect with their passion, they are learning new things and not getting caught in the spider web trap of status quo.

Superman, Wonder Woman, Batman, Cat Woman all of these super heroes in every story go through a dramatic re-entry into learning something new and ‘rising above’ and in order to do that they must learn a lesson, they must become students again and they MUST stay committed to being open and alert for continual lessons being provided by the world.

To help you reconnect with your ‘super hero’ within let me ask you- are you remaining a student?

When we look at life and work as an opportunity to learn and grow guess what happens?

We achieve super human abilities to adapt to fast change, respond to our environment in new and creative ways AND we re-infuse our lives with energy, alertness, and an overall positive energy that sees a plethora of amazing opportunities.
