Do everything from love

In this video I quote from the Hal David/Burt Bacharach 1960's song 'What The World Needs Now'.

"What the world needs now is love, sweet love

It's the only thing that there's just too little of

What the world needs now is love, sweet love

No not just for some, but for everyone."


In a great book Steve Farber says 'Love is Just Damn Good Business: Do What You Love in the Service of People Who Love What You Do.' Get the book here.

When I first read 'Do What You Love in the Service of People Who Love What You Do' in Steve's book 'The Radical Leap' over a decade ago I stayed silent for what seemed forever. It was a game changer for me. It took me many years to learn to live these words, and many more before it has become a way of life.

In my Heart-Leadership book I refer to love as one of eight heart qualities. You can get the book here. Just as importantly at the link you can access 28 videos (24 are under 5 minutes) and 24 podcasts (all under 10 minutes) that will help you to lead with your heart. I believe leading with heart is what all wise leaders do, in your own best way.

My work is helping people to become the wise leaders you want to be. My best advice is "Do everything from a place of love." Writing a review for a book you've just read, write it from love. Going into a supermarket, walk with love. Whatever you do, do it from love. 

Become the wise leader you want to be.
