13 Ways to Leave a Lasting Legacy

Consistent

As we conclude our posts on taking the high road let me ask, are you known as someone who is consistent? Do you hang-in-there and endure with associates who are going through hardship? Are you a friend in both the good and the bad times? Do people know they can count on you?

Like me, I suspect you deeply appreciate people who demonstrate the value of consistency. And I am sure that many people would characterize you as someone they can count on. This value has a profound impact on our productivity and our relationships. 

As we strive for the "high road” here is a recommended set of values that I believe ought to govern our behavior in the marketplace and every place:

  • Patience
  • Kindness
  • Celebration
  • Moderation
  • Manners
  • Give, Give, Give
  • Peace
  • Let go
  • Truth
  • Perseverance
  • Positivity
  • Hopeful
  • Consistent 

Let’s make our sliver of creation a little better for those we interact with. Won’t you join me in demonstrating virtue?   

"It is time to return to core values, time to get back to basics, to self-discipline and respect for the law, to consideration for the others, to accepting responsibility for yourself and your family - and not shuffling it off on other people and the state."  John Major
