Influence is the capacity to have an effect on the character, development, or behavior of someone or something, or the effect itself. With this in mind, it begs to question, what kind of influence do you have on this world and the people in it? You influence people every single day whether you are aware of it of not. Random strangers, your family members, and your friends are all impacted by your life force energy and how you show up each and every day. Your actions and behaviors have consequences, and that impacts others people, which has a butterfly effect. Not that you exude any pressure per say, but the importance of your position (or lack thereof over another) does indeed have a ripple effect. As they say, your clout goes a long way. Since you have this much power and authority over others, think about having domination that over yourself. You do control what you do, what you say, and how you act. And since we are all in a position of leadership (to be the best that each of us can be), we should leverage that prestige and govern ourselves the way that we deem worthy. What matters to you? What do you want out of this one life? Give it significance and go after every little dream with gusto. Then use your reputation, your money, and your network to make a positive repercussion out there.
