Leadership is a Lonely Sport

Robin Sharma
About this episode

Most people on the planet today are terrified of being alone.

And yet, there are multiple benefits that come to the leader who carries the wisdom of being alone more often in this noisy world...

...It is in solitude that you build intimacy with your gifts plus talents.

...It is in quietude that we can do the deep inner-work that allows us to bring our finest games to our marketplaces (and communities).

...It is when we are alone that we receive the opportunity to build a relationship with who we truly are.

...Great geniuses leverage serenity to capture the insights that allow them to disrupt their fields and make history.

Being a dreamer and an idealist can be a lonely job. Because so few do it. But we need more dreamers and idealists. To lead us to a better place.
