Steven Gleason's acceptance speech for the Arthur Ashe Courage Award at the ESPYs profoundly touched me, especially his words: "It's clear to me that our ability to courageously share our vulnerabilities with each other is our greatest strength." This resonated deeply with me, as I grew up in a Catholic family where discussing struggles and vulnerabilities was often taboo. We were taught to hide our challenges, to not "air the dirty laundry." This culture of silence can be isolating and prevents true healing and authenticity. Steve's message challenges this mindset. By openly sharing his own vulnerabilities in his journey with ALS, he exemplifies how courage and strength can come from transparency and honesty. In a world where we often feel pressured to present a perfect facade, his words remind us of the power in being real and open with each other. We have one life to live, and it's crucial to embrace it fully—by being bold, open, and accepting of ourselves and others. Steven's speech is a powerful reminder to break down the barriers of silence and to find strength in our shared human experiences. Another moment in his speech that stood out to me, was when he spoke about the importance of purpose and connection. He said, "We are not alone. We are in this together." These words serve as a reminder that, despite our individual struggles, we can find solidarity and support in our communities if we have the courage to be vulnerable. Steven's journey and his words inspire me to live more authentically, to be open about my own struggles, and to support others in theirs. It's a reminder that our greatest strength lies not in hiding our vulnerabilities but in sharing them, fostering a deeper connection and understanding with those around us. https://lnkd.in/gSPY7tiR

“It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face if marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly […]” –Theodore Roosevelt, quoted in “The 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership Tested by Time” by James Garlow This quote was part of Roosevelt’s “The Man In The Arena” speech, originally given at the Sorbonne in Paris in 1910. If it sounds familiar, you might have previously heard this selection from his entire speech. If you’ve ever attended a sporting event or an event at a theater, more likely than not you’ve said—or heard someone say—“they missed that pitch”, “I could have made that shot”, “they skipped a line”, and so on. Unless you’re an expert in that arena, stop. You’re not the person who practiced for hours on end, trying to fix errors and mistakes. You didn’t agree to a performance under the bright lights. The person in the arena strived to give an excellent performance. I ask you, before you make your next comment about how you could have struck out that batter, go practice pitching as long as the pitcher did. (I’m excluding the thought of the opposing team stealing signs.) Develop that physical acuity to throw a variety of pitches and the mindset of what order you’d use (of your pitches) to attempt to strike out the batter. #matthewsbooknotes #sports #theater #roosevelt #maninthearena

Brothers, let's cut to the chase. As men in today's world, we're constantly caught in a tug-of-war between our desire to lead with servant-hearted love and the pressure to chase success at any cost. It's a tension that can leave us feeling stuck, conflicted, and unfulfilled. But what if there was a way to navigate this struggle with clarity, conviction, and a sense of greater purpose? What if you could break free from the "me first" mentality and embrace a leadership style that aligns with the very heart of Jesus? That's exactly what we'll be tackling head-on at the upcoming "Anointed and Fearless" men's conference. In our session on "The Heart of a Servant Leader," we won't just scratch the surface – we'll dive deep into the core questions that keep you up at night: How can I resist the temptation of self-promotion and lead with genuine humility? What does it look like to choose the path of sacrificial service, even when it goes against the grain? How can I find purpose, joy, and fulfillment in pouring out my life for others? This won't be just another feel-good pep talk. We'll wrestle with the real costs and challenges of servant leadership, but also the immeasurable rewards. You'll walk away with practical strategies for aligning your leadership with the example of Jesus and cultivating a heart that puts others first. Most importantly, you'll be part of a band of brothers who are choosing to reject the status quo and embrace a higher calling. As iron sharpens iron, we'll challenge and encourage each other to lead like the ultimate Servant Leader. Don't miss this opportunity to revolutionize your perspective, reignite your passion, and set a new trajectory for your leadership impact. Your family, your workplace, your community – they need you to lead with the heart of a servant. Join us at "Anointed and Fearless," and seize the purpose, power, and peace that come from leading like Jesus. It's a decision you won't regret. https://fb.me/e/4muA2NTuZ

I am SO EXCITED for this book!!! Mikki Hebl and Eden King are leading scholars in DEI within (and outside of) the workplace. But my favorite part is they always bridge the scientist-practitioner gap by providing actionable, research-based guidelines to implement.
Here is what Eden King and I have been working on in 2023 and it is finally going to be out in March of 2024....would love you to buy a copy, read it, and pass it on... https://lnkd.in/g6kVE7ki All reactions: 342 MaryAnn Harvey, HK Cheung and 340 others

I had to repost again, Rob's original post got me to watch Steve's speech, which then led to to look Steve up more where I found a show on Amazon Prime about Steve Gleason. If you haven’t seen Steve Gleason's acceptance speech for the Arthur Ashe Courage Award at the ESPYs, I urge you to put down everything you are doing and listen for a few minutes. His words on courage, fear, fearlessness, and resilience are truly inspiring. They left a profound impact on me, and I believe they will do the same for you. Steve Gleason, a former NFL player, and New Orleans hero, was diagnosed with ALS at the age of 34. Doctors gave him two to five years to live. Instead of succumbing to fear or despair, Steve chose to live his life to the fullest. His journey is captured in the Amazon Prime show "Gleason," which I highly recommend. This incredible man documented his experiences through personal video journals for his then-unborn son and shared his adventures and mission to live fully despite his diagnosis. His story is a testament to the power of the human spirit, and his character, fortitude, and resilience are truly inspiring. Steve Gleason's journey reminds us that true courage is not the absence of fear, but the determination to move forward despite it. It is about embracing life with all its challenges and choosing to make every moment count. His mindset and resilience are a beacon of hope and strength for all of us. In a world where we often face our own battles, Steve's story encourages us to look within and find the strength to persevere. It’s a powerful reminder that we can overcome adversity with the right mindset and a resilient spirit. Let Steve Gleason's story inspire you to live boldly, to face your fears head-on, and to never let anything hold you back from living a life full of purpose and passion. As Rob Pallante said, "The word 'courage' doesn't do him justice." Watch his speech, watch the show, and let his journey inspire you to cultivate a champion mindset. Embrace resilience, build character, and live life to its fullest potential. #ChampionMindset #SteveGleason #Inspiration #Resilience #Courage #MindsetMatters #LiveBoldly
