Edward’s Realization: Making Sense of Life … A Choice and the First Step to True Leadership.

Michiel Kerbert

Making sense of life is a choice …

 

Edward realizes when he reflects more

 

About which best next steps to take

 

Leading the team to new heights.


Being the leader-catalyst is one

 

Being the best for the team

 

Is something entirely different.

 

 

In a reflective mood

 

That’s what Edward has been this weekend.

 

They had another what felt like

 

An amazing week.


Edward had great dialogues

 

With every member of the team

 

About their personal WHYs

 

How these can tie into


The organizational WHY.

 

 

The more these conversations progressed

 

The more Edward felt


He was missing something.

 

His Theatre of the Mind

 

Guided him to

 

An important realization:


The system he developed

 

Could - and should - be so much deeper.

 

Everything is connected …

 

Saying that is one thing

 

Understanding and acting accordingly

 

Is entirely different.

 

Edward realized this weekend – once again

 

Only when life makes sense

 

It can be lived truly … and freely.

 

 

Last evening’s visit

 

To the Theatre of his Mind

 

Edward encountered his next steps:

 

He - himself -

 

Must first make sense of his own life


Needs to lead himself better


Lead his life better

 

Then … and only then …


He can lead others better!

 

 

Now Edward understands

 

Sarah’s question of last week:

 

“Why do we work together, Edward?”


Sarah was inviting him

 

To reflect deeper about his role …

 

About whom he was being …

 

And about whom he could become.

 

 

Edward realizes …

 

We all want life to make sense

 

To live a life of meaning

 

With inner peace.

 

He knows and understands

 

He can be – and do – better

 

In all life’s domains.

 

The adventure of his lifetime

 

His own Hero’s journey

 

Goes deeper and farther

 

That’s what realizes now.


He sees this realization

 

As a gift.


Sarah’s question

 

Really opened the door to his Self.

 

 

In the Theatre of his Mind

 

He sees a shining star

 

Now guiding him

 

From his reflective mood

 

And discoveries … to action.

 

Making sense of life

 

Creating meaning

 

Is a choice … and

 

Requires action.

 

Understanding this will create

 

New dynamics with the team the coming weeks.

 

Edward knows and feels now

 

He is ready …

 

Are you ready to take your next step?
