Lessons from Jackie Chan: Perseverance and Passion I’ve loved Jackie Chan’s movies - especially the unique blend of comedy, drama, and action - like the Rush Hour series or even Karate Kid.   But beyond his on-screen prowess, what endeared him, is his humility and his perseverance. Picture this: a young Jackie Chan, filled with dreams of becoming a martial arts superstar. He faced countless rejections, injuries, and setbacks. But instead of giving up, he embraced every challenge with unwavering determination. It takes a lot of strength, to stay 56 years, and act in over 200 movies, and yet have your eyes on the goal! Here are some valuable lessons we can learn from Jackie Chan's incredible journey: 🌟Find your North Star Discover what that excites you, that would keep you going when the going gets tough 🌍“Do not let circumstances control you. You change your circumstances”  We’ll face ups and downs, and realising that we are not just limited by those conditions can help us rise above it. 🤗Embrace your Fears  Fear isn't always bad. It’s an emotion to help us be alert and prepared for danger. It helps us understand when we are moving past our comfort zone.  Like Jackie Chan said: “A lot of people ask me when I do a stunt, 'Jackie, are you scared?' Of course I'm scared. I'm not Superman”. Use your fears as fuel to push beyond your comfort zone. 🧑🤝🧑You are not alone  Your friends, family, and circle of trust are your pillars of strength. Just like Jackie Chan found his inspiration while at Sylvester Stallone’s house, your circle of trust can inspire you, hold you up when you are down, motivate you and be there for you through thick and thin. Jackie Chan's story reminds me that true greatness can be seen when we look deep within. Sometimes the fruits may come much later. But by embracing our passions, overcoming challenges with unwavering resolve, and surrounding ourselves with people who care, we too can achieve extraordinary things. To more folks like him, who inspire us to keep us going! #Motivation #WhatInspiresMe #LeadershipLessons

"You can't get influence by waking up and saying I'm going to influence people." Influence is the result of saying things over time that people find helpful, provocative, and insightful.

Coming April 1st: Octavia Goredema on Doing Work that Matters on Living a Life in Full with Dr. Chris Stout How do you get the job, or position, or career, where the work that you do matters - and not just to your employer - but to you? Few experiences in life are as awful as the feeling of being trapped in the wrong career. But how do you find a job that truly resonates with you? And once you’ve found it, how do you develop the confidence to take the necessary steps to arrive at the career of your dreams? Or how do you recover from a career setback and seize new opportunities? Or, what if you are returning after a time away from being in the workforce? How do you deal with the uncertainty behind a career change and what gives you the confidence to hit a reset-switch on your professional life?   These are the questions, areas and issues in which Octavia Goredema thrives, as she works to help others navigate their own personal career success.   Octavia is the host of the Audible Original series, How to Change Careers with Octavia Goredema and the author of PREP, PUSH, PIVOT: Essential Career Strategies for Underrepresented Women, published by Wiley.   Octavia founded Twenty Ten Agency, a career coaching practice, where she has coached leaders at Google, American Airlines, Tinder, General Motors, Nike, and Dow Jones, to name but just a few. Her insights have been featured in leading media outlets including Fortune, CNN, Fast Company, Harvard Business Review, the Los Angeles Times, The Guardian, and Black Enterprise, among others. During the pandemic she co-hosted “HBR Now,” the Harvard Business Review’s weekly show on leadership, and this year she contributed a chapter to the Harvard Business Review’s new book, Navigating the Toxic Workplace.   I see her work as a gift shared with her readers, her listeners, and her clients. Her wisdom, her transparency in the sharing of her experiences, and what she does, all demonstrate how she lives her life in full, and in the service of others.   Octavia Goredema #leadership #career #pivot #coach #work #ambition
