Welcome back for another post all about learning,inspiring and reaching your full potential as an aspiring leader. This post is all about inspiration.

Let's get it!!

Enough said

MEDITATION

We have been discussing energy. Specifically the energy that derives from passion and conviction to either improve yourself or lead others. 

Last week was all about refining that raw energy into results and correctly honing that energy.

Please read that before you continue with the next step in our discussion. 

Here is the link for last week's post.

We are going to end off our discussion on using that raw energy by talking about how to guide and help others unleash their full potential and use their energy.

That energy is within each and every one of us. A big issue is that most people either allow it to remain raw and unrefined. And another big issue is that other people decide to not use this energy at all. As a leader and a person who simply wants to help and guide others you must assist these people.

We have discussed the importance of this energy, how to use it correctly and how to refine your own personal energy. We have each learnt and understood our own personal energy. And because of that we are to inspire those to also use their driven and passion correctly. 

We have to project the individual lessons we have learned on others who are still to learn theirs. At the beginning of this discussion we said that to correctly use that raw hunger that we have initially, we have to teach.

And as we learn more we guide more.

A leader does not alone, a leader walks ahead and guides.

SOCIETY

STOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

GO BACK TO OUR PREVIOUS POST BEFORE YOU CONTINUE!!!!

Okay, now that's sorted out and you went back to read our previous post. 

You should know that we have been talking about changing the world.

We have discussed power and how we can wait until we have it and then changing the world. We discussed why we as the current youth are the most probable to change the values and standpoints that govern society.

In this post we are going to be talking about the power YOU already possess. You have influence and power. We might not be sitting in the White House or might be the prime minister of any country, but we are aspiring leaders working towards influencing change in society. And as aspiring leaders we currently are working on something, talking about something, sharing thoughts, inspiring ideas and gradually creating change.

RECOGNISE YOUR POWER. Use what you have and grow it. CONTINUE sharing your thoughts. Create change in the small places that you can create change in. It may not be the most impactful of changes but it is still a change. To recognize that you are already a leader is such a powerful tool. It allows you to grow and lead more efficiently.

Do what you can where you can. And others will do the same. We might not be the individual with the most amount of power and influence for change but there is power in numbers and we have that. 

Start changing the world today!

It takes 1 step.

POETRY

Today's poem is a repeat. It is one of our favorite here at GENERATION Y. 

We feel that it is relevant because as the world remains indoors and corona has us under quarantine, we have noticed that people are starting to give up on specific dreams and are losing motivation to push forward.

And this poem by Langston Hughes reminds us that nothing good comes from a dream deferred.

INSPIRATION

We just finished talking about the hunger you feel as a leader and today's motivation can also assist in taking away that hunger.
