This is the second podcast episode in our series entitled, “It’s Not About You.” Every one of us has the power to influence others either positively or negatively, and we can allow ourselves to be influenced in the same way.
In this episode of Monday Morning Moments, I share the second “I” word of Influence and discuss 2 different ways to think about influence in terms of our Circle of Influence (the people who are influencing us) and our sphere of influence (the people who we are influencing). I also offer some key questions for you to ponder and proactively take action steps toward in order to leverage your influence in the best way and not make life just about you.
