I love working in a school with these kids that want to be Principal for an Hour. They set a goal and used earned points to spend time with me. #blessedprincipal #humbled #leadership

Choice leads to choosing. Choosing leads to seeing what people chose. You can’t love what you can’t see. Give people choice and you can see them for who they are and build relationships. The most effective leaders give choice.

We wrap our kids in tinfoil to protect them, but all we see when we look at them is a reflection of us. Give them choice to all them to learn and grow. @mwbuckingham #scasai3 #trust
All of our work we do is done in teams. Find our red threads and help people flourish in those team settings. @mwbuckingham #SCASAi3

Want to love your job? Love is in the details. Ask yourself weekly what you loved and what you loathed so you can find ways to incorporate more of what you love and create your joy.

Look through everything with “lens of love” and see things differently. Your areas of strengths are your areas of opportunity. Lean into and invest time in those-red threads. @mwbuckingham #scasai3

“You don’t need to be a full quilt. You only need to be 20% of it. Your team is the quilt. They need your red threads!”

Three signs of loving an activity -
1. You look forward to it
2. Time speeds up (in a zone!)
3. When you are done with it, you are invigorated - not drained
These three may not always perfectly align, but you need to love 20% of your activities each day

When you do something you love, times flies by. A nine year gets it - why don’t we as adults? @mwbuckingham #SCASAi3
Successful people find love in what they do. @mwbuckingham Simple, yet powerful reminder. #SCASAi3 #TakeYourLoveSsriously
