I like how the 5th rule shares that a leader doen't need a podium. It reminds me that we lead in all aspects of our lives; parents, educators, siblings, neighbor, friend etc... When we are courageous enough to take the.....then we truly lead from any chair. My favorite rule is Rule number 6, "Don't take yourself so goddamn seriously." I've always taken my life with intense purpose sometimes causing great stress. I've definitely been on a vibe to lighten up. In the text, it mentioned when lightening up it may lighten up those around me. Lightening things up is important as a wife, mother and educator. Posted by Kwasida Williams at 2:17 PM

DrichardsApr 22, 2012 06:34 PM Kwasida, I also liked the 5th rule about leading from any chair and that leaders do not need a podium. We do lead from all aspects of our lives and not always from the front. The position I found difficult leading from was at the start of my CBR and sitting back to let my students take the lead on the challenge. I also liked rule number 6 and there are times that I need to lighten up. I plan to apply this rule to my life on a daily bases.
