What Is The Invisible Line You Need To Cross To Reach Your Goals?

Dec 10, 2024 | Tip for a Terrific Tuesday

Why did I choose Harriet Tubman?

I admire her because she freed herself when she crossed that line, but she wasn’t selfish.

She brought others with her, and she went across that line nineteen times to bring others with her.

That lesson prepared me to be able to cross those invisible lines into freedom as a leader.

And so I ask you today, what is the invisible line that you need to cross?

On the count of 3, we all are going to cross that invisible line.

1–2–3.

Step, and let’s cross that line.

High-five somebody because you just crossed that invisible line.
