The only way to change someone's mind is to connect with them from the heart. -Rasheed Ogunlaru

Taking time to become self-aware is a very important aspect everyone needs to develop for leadership. As readers continue to develop their self-awareness, they will be able to start using their understanding of their emotions to influence others.

John Maxwell states that “Leadership is influence. Nothing more, nothing less.” To influence others, the reader has the opportunity to take the passion discovered through self-awareness and use it. Emotions shown through passions impact people more than statistics or other facts.

The essential difference between emotion and reason is that emotion leads to action while reason leads to conclusions. - Donald Calne
