DIVINE INSPIRATION

Hey all,

Mark here. Here’s what we have in store for this week…

WHAT I’M WRITING ABOUT

Courageous Leadership

When confronted with an extremely uncomfortable situation, leadership requires a choice on whether to lean into it with courage or to shy away and take the easy path. You know which is the right path, but also how easy it is to deny or ignore it due to the discomfort. True leadership requires showing up and doing the hard work, especially when the path is daunting. The key to ensuring you always take the “hard right” is to set a very high standard for yourself and then commit to standing your ground. You must stand firm in your values. You can start by clarifying your “no-compromise” core values, and then let them be a guardrail for decision-making during tough times. This builds trust within your team and creates a solid foundation for collaboration in the face of setbacks.

It is essential to view challenges not as failures but as opportunities to learn essential lessons. Each perceived setback is an opportunity for growth—both personally and professionally. Embracing these moments strengthens your leadership and deepens the bonds of trust within your team. Remember, being “Uncommon” means doing the work daily, facing challenges head-on, and cultivating an environment where courage and resilience thrive. Lead with conviction, and watch both you and your team flourish.

True leadership is not about being fearless; it’s about making decisions that align with your values, even when they’re difficult. — Mark Divine

WHAT’S INSPIRING ME

Watching the first light of dawn break through the horizon, I always feel a deep sense of renewal wash over me. Each sunrise is a reminder that we have the power to embrace the day ahead, to set our intentions with clarity and purpose. This morning ritual fuels my drive, igniting my mind and spirit. The sunrise symbolizes and inspires resilience and hope, a daily invitation to step into our full potential.

PRACTICE OR HABIT TO TRY

5-Minute Yoga Practice: Start each day with this movement practice for one week to center and energize your body and mind. Begin in Cat-Cow Pose on all fours: inhale as you arch your back and lift your gaze (Cow), then exhale, rounding your spine and tucking your chin (Cat). Flow between these two postures for a minute, syncing your breath with movement to awaken your spine. Next, sit cross-legged or on a chair for a Seated Twist. Inhale to lengthen your spine, then exhale as you gently twist to the right, using your left hand on your right knee for support. Hold for a few breaths before switching sides to detoxify and invigorate your internal organs. Finally, transition into Standing Forward Fold: rise to your feet, hinge at your hips, and fold forward, letting your head hang heavy. Breathe deeply, releasing tension and embracing the moment. Incorporate this practice daily, and watch your clarity and resilience grow.
