She didn’t have it easy, but that’s what life is about, isn’t it?? It’s about meeting the challenges where they are, and facing them head on.? This is probably my most favorite Eleanor Roosevelt quote ever.

???? As an executive career/mindset coach, I'm passionate about illuminating the way forward. Here are some powerful recommendations inspired by Eleanor Roosevelt's quote:

??? Light Your Path with Purpose: Instead of dwelling on challenges, focus on your purpose. Define your career goals and align them with your passions and values. Let your purpose guide your actions and decisions, igniting a clear path towards success.

??? Embrace a Growth Mindset: Rather than succumbing to negativity, cultivate a growth mindset. Embrace challenges as opportunities for learning and personal development. Seek out new skills, expand your knowledge, and embrace change with enthusiasm.

??? Build Resilience: Rather than dwelling on setbacks, cultivate resilience. Embrace setbacks as learning experiences that can fuel your growth. Adapt, bounce back, and leverage your resilience to overcome obstacles and thrive in the face of adversity.

??? Foster Positive Relationships: Instead of isolating yourself, build a network of support. Cultivate meaningful relationships with mentors, peers, and industry professionals. Surround yourself with individuals who uplift and inspire you, creating a supportive ecosystem.

??? Lead with Impact: Rather than complaining about the status quo, lead with purpose and impact. Embrace leadership opportunities and inspire others with your vision and values. Take proactive steps to create positive change and influence the world around you.

???? Remember, it is better to light a candle than curse the darkness. Illuminate your executive journey with purpose, resilience, and a growth mindset!

??? Share your thoughts in the comments below. How do you interpret Eleanor Roosevelt's quote in the context of your executive career? Let's inspire and learn from each other, fostering a community of growth-oriented leaders. Together, we'll illuminate our executive careers with brilliance and success! ???

If I had to pick one word that is an essential component of having energizing work, connection is it.? You won’t be successful in either without connecting with others.? It doesn’t matter what technology is at your disposal, and it doesn’t matter if you have a great resume or background.? Connecting with others is the game changer.??

Let’s all embrace this new day and commit to connecting with others, especially those with different experiences, skill sets, and geographies. For example, it was great to share ideas with Debbie Dunn-Boysen today.? It goes to show you that even if a person is outside your speciality-area, they could offer you ideas that you don’t expect.\
