The true state of your leadership character always surfaces during a crisis.
In leadership, you can only fake for so long because a crisis always shows the real characteristics of a leader. Marriot CEO Arne Sorenson gave a master class of what real, authentic, inspirational leadership is all about. True leadership always begins with the inner person, according to John Maxwell. The character of a leader will filter into the entire organization and its employees. Great character will create the potential for a great organization. But, it all begins with the leader’s heart, and Mr. Sorenson exemplified this perfectly.
There are many so-called leaders whose only concern is their self-preservation at the expense of their team during these very challenging times. You can only fake for so long, and this crisis has revealed to many people the real character of their leader.

🎧 Active Listening
Active listening was first used in counseling and conflict resolution. These days, business professionals around the world employ the technique.
It makes sense: When it’s done right, active listening — fully listening to the speaker and providing verbal and non-verbal feedback — can help you to draw people out, avoid misunderstandings, foster collaboration, settle disagreements and gain people’s trust. Most of the best leaders have strong listening skills.
Hoping to become a better active listener and communicator?

“Listening is a magnetic and strange thing, a creative force. The friends who listen to us are the ones we move toward. When we are listened to, it creates us, makes us unfold and expand.”

Learn to bite your tongue
“You have to be willing sometimes to listen to some remarkable bad opinions. Because if you say to someone, ‘That’s the silliest thing I’ve ever heard; get on out of here!’ — then you'll never get anything out of that person again, and you might as well have a puppet on a string or a robot.”

Listening open and actively
“To learn through listening, practice it naively and actively. Naively means that you listen openly, ready to learn something, as opposed to listening defensively, ready to rebut. Listening actively means you acknowledge what you heard and act accordingly.”

Never stop listening
“Of all the skills of leadership, listening is the most valuable — and one of the least understood. Most captains of industry listen only sometimes, and they remain ordinary leaders. But a few, the great ones, never stop listening. That's how they get word before anyone else of unseen problems and opportunities.”

Listen at least as much as you talk
“I only wish I could find an institute that teaches people how to listen. Business people need to listen at least as much as they need to talk. Too many people fail to realize that real communication goes in both directions.”

What is the difference between a Hobby and a Habit?
Hobby vs Habit
Hobby:
A hobby is something you do for fun, for pleasure, for amusement. It entertains you and that’s mostly why you do it. It’s light, a distraction, a fancy, a whim.
Some examples of hobbies might be mushroom foraging, puzzles, knitting, fixing cars, refinishing furniture or collecting antiques.
HABIT:
A habit is a pattern (good or bad) that you repeated in order to acquire. It’s an activity done over and over to the point that you don’t think about it. You don’t ask yourself if you want to do it. It sort of gets done.
Some examples of habits might be brushing your teeth, exercising, smoking after a big meal, having dessert, going to bed at a certain time.
It’s important to keep in mind that what to you might seem like a hobby - a light, amusing way to pass the time - to another person might be a central pursuit.
For example, if you claimed writing was my hobby I would probably have an unfavorable reaction. I don't write for a living, but I take writing very seriously.
We don’t ever define hobbies for others. We can only label them as such for ourselves.
