Legacy is not just for after we are gone, whether that is gone from a job, a business, a relationship, or a life. It is something we are building every day, consciously or not.

Legacy is not just for after we are gone, whether that is gone from a job, a business, a relationship, or a life. It is something we are building every day, consciously or not.
Whether you lead a team, a business, a family, or simply yourself, you are shaping something that will outlive your current chapter. That might be impact, influence, or how people feel in your presence.
I invite you to zoom out beyond this quarter, this year, and this project, and focus into something bigger. If you know the legacy you want to leave, you should see a shift in how you show up today.
Please take a moment to reflect on this question:
