Stay on the Mission

Just read a superb article on superstar rapper Lil Wayne in Rolling Stone. Rich with insights on excellence and full of inspiration, the piece recorded how he went from virtual unknown to the best rapper on Earth.

His success came through the usual suspects: sheer hard work/unparalled persistence/and remarkable talent. And this man never seems to forget what he's all about. It's not the fame nor the cars nor the money that ultimately drives him. It's the love of the music.

One of his friends says: "When we found out that 'Tha Carter III' sold a million records, we were in LA. We set up a party for him and he stayed on the bus to record! We went to the party for him. When we got back, he'd recorded three songs."

Leadership is about cutting through the fog and staying acutely connected to what's most central and important. In your work and within your life, have the boldness of spirit and toughness of mind to stay on mission. To remain true to your cause. To keep the whole purpose of your life the only purpose for your life
