As a retired SFC (Sergeant First Class) I’ve served 26 years with all three components of the US Army and one of the most influential takeaways that has guided my steps through life, love, and leadership was a specific set of core values. I’ve adopted these values and adapted them into all aspects of my life both in uniform and as a civilian. These values are easily adaptable for anyone who strives to become a better influencer and leave a legacy of true excellence. They can be remembered by the acrostic LDRSHIP - Loyalty, Duty, Respect, Selfless Service, Honor, Integrity, Personal Courage. Please feel feee to create your own core values by implementing these seven into your personal and professional life on a daily basis. Use them as a personal character and accountability checklist to guide your journey to authentic leadership. Most people don’t live by a set of values intentionally emplaced on a daily basis, if ever at all. I hope you will adopt these core values and apply them to your own leadership development. As always, for more information or to possibly have me to come speak and teach on this topic and many others with your organization, email me at todaysleader.net@gmail.com. Lead well my friends! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/todaysleader/support

From $36K to $1.75M in one year! My friend Andrew brought a business from $36, 000 annually and grew it to $1,750,000 in one year! After an experience with the law from driving with an open container in his car, he woke up (red & blue flashing lights will do that to you really quick), and decided that he needed to make a few changes in his life. he moved to West Palms Beach, Florida and founded his tech company with a hand full of employees and discovered how to turn his small entrepreneurial endeavor into an incredible tech business. The greatest advice he received was from a lady he helped to hang photos for after she witnessed him working on his computer and asked, “What’s your break-even point? If you own a business, you need to know your numbers”. That awareness gave him greater clarity into the process of building and ensuring he could scale it to it’s greater potential. Along the way, he has coached his team to success and also has helped many entrepreneurs and families with financial coaching. As a result of his sobriety and commitment to help others go from sobriety to success through his podcast.
