A great leader looks at you through the lens of who you can be. A great leader doesn't look at you by the mistakes you've made in the past, but by the person you can become in the future.

00:00:00.080 So, in life, you and I get judged for a lot of different things we do.
00:00:02.760 Who we marry, who we befriend, who we follow, how we lead, and the products we produce.
00:00:07.660 Meaning, a great parent is judged based on kids they produce who produce great grandkids, right?
00:00:12.820 That's how we're judged.
00:00:13.440 So, if you're a leader, this message is to challenge you on how you view the people that you're leading on a daily basis.
00:00:19.680 And by the way, the message I give, if it makes sense to you and the challenges,
00:00:22.540 you give it a thumbs up and subscribe to the channel.
00:00:24.800 Let me get right into it.
00:00:25.560 So, say you're somebody that has a right attitude.
00:00:29.020 You're uplifting, you're positive, you're willing to put the effort,
00:00:32.560 and you're somebody that's got a person that's trusting, right?
00:00:35.880 Put those three things into place.
00:00:37.080 Let's set that aside.
00:00:38.380 A great leader leads you in the following way.
00:00:41.860 There's three ways people look at you.
00:00:44.920 And below average leader leads you and thinks about what you did nine months ago.
00:00:50.020 So, in the back of their head, even though you've got a good attitude,
00:00:52.660 even though you're making the effort, even though you want to get improved,
00:00:55.760 a below average leader looks at you and says,
00:00:57.780 yeah, but man, internally, six months ago, this guy's not going to do anything.
00:01:01.400 This guy's not going to do anything.
00:01:02.340 They always look at your past that you made a mistake in something that you did.
00:01:06.440 So, they can't get past that.
00:01:08.300 So, they can't view where you can be.
00:01:10.860 An average leader views you as for a face, like who you are today.
00:01:14.380 It's like, you know what?
00:01:15.340 This guy was good six months ago.
00:01:16.620 He's good today.
00:01:17.280 This is who I see him being.
00:01:18.420 But great leaders have the ability to look at you and say,
00:01:23.980 let me tell you something, Johnny.
00:01:25.320 You've got a great attitude.
00:01:26.660 You make the effort.
00:01:27.840 You're improving.
00:01:29.320 And you made a lot of mistakes in the past before.
00:01:31.320 But one day, I see you being a leader of great leaders.
00:01:36.700 I see you leading other people.
00:01:38.000 I see you one day being able to X, Y, Z.
00:01:40.240 So, the focus becomes of who you can be one day.
00:01:43.240 And if you're working with a leader like that, that's encouraging you that one day you can be this person,
00:01:47.740 who doesn't want to run through the wall for somebody like that, right?
00:01:50.900 Just think about parents.
00:01:51.960 When parents are like, I remember when you were 14 years old, they were doing this.
00:01:54.480 Mom, I'm not 14 anymore.
00:01:55.560 I'm 28 years old, making a half a million dollar of your income.
00:01:58.100 What are you talking about?
00:01:59.160 Yeah, but when you were 14, it's annoying, right?
00:02:02.020 But at the same time, it's when you're sitting somebody next to you,
00:02:05.000 and that's your leader or your mentor, and they say, you just see him as this?
00:02:09.720 Let me tell you what I think this guy's going to do.
00:02:11.440 Here's what he's going to be doing.
00:02:12.360 He's going to do boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.
00:02:14.340 Just be patient.
00:02:15.080 Watch what happens in the next three to five, ten years.
00:02:17.240 If he makes the effort, if he stays humble, if he has the right attitude,
00:02:22.700 if he keeps improving, this guy's going to be one of the greatest leaders we've seen in our lifetime.
00:02:27.140 That's a development.
00:02:28.220 That's a future.
00:02:28.920 So, either if you're following someone, you have to look for that language,
00:02:32.220 or if you are a leader, you have to start looking at people of who they can be,
00:02:36.300 not just who they are today or the mistakes they made six months ago.
00:02:39.300 And the main criteria here, for some of you, would be like, my leader doesn't look at me that way.
00:02:43.680 Well, maybe also because your attitude isn't that good, and you don't consistently show effort,
00:02:48.680 and maybe because you're not trying to improve yourself, and that's on you.
00:02:51.820 That's not on the leader, because that part you control.
00:02:53.920 They don't control desire.
00:02:55.380 That's on you.
00:02:55.960 All I'm saying is, assume you have this, and I'm looking at who you can be.
00:03:01.080 That's the value.
00:03:01.980 So, you've got to bring the attitude, the effort, the improvement, that part.
00:03:05.900 The leader's got to say, I think one day you can be X, Y, Z.
00:03:08.960 I've seen a lot of guys that I've worked with over the years who had these right criterias,
00:03:12.900 but they kept making small little mistakes.
00:03:14.600 I'm like, listen, one day this guy's going to be a big giant.
00:03:16.920 So, for you as a leader, you've got to look at the people in that lens, and they're going to follow you.
00:03:20.040 And eventually, they'll become who you think they're going to become.
00:03:22.800 If you think they're going to be small thinking, negative complainers, that's exactly who they're going to become.
00:03:26.980 If you think they're going to want to be leaders, that's exactly who they'll become as well.
00:03:30.000 Odds are more on your end to think of who they one day become, rather than who they are today.
