Devote your talents and energies to a cause that's larger than yourself. "See how the mass of men worry themselves into nameless graves, while here and there a great unselfish soul forgets himself into immortality." Now those are a few lines worth shouting from the mountaintop (and down the corridor at work when no one's looking).
So easy to get caught up in the thick of thin things. To spend a career or a life just reacting to the trivialities of your daily hours rather than using your days to advance the creation of something great.
But leadership is about making things better. It's about transcending the petty cravings of our egos and donating our lives to build something that will outlast us. And when we really get this idea, we begin to experience true happiness. Perhaps for the first time.
