I am not a huge Nadal fan. Just don’t like watching him play, though I always respected him. But reading this quote on Facebook did something for me and draws me to him as a person. I hope it is really his quote. So powerful and relevant.

@CyrilRamaphosa
as much as you want, but this morning I am grateful for a Pres that dreams. All exceptional leaders are dreamers. You and I must help him realize the dream. Let’s lead from where we stand. I will lead from where I stand.

Dear South Africa
Imagine the country we would have if we all did more of this - Stop & help a fellow citizen in such a simple way. Now this is

without title! Well done! The least we can do here is retweet. Such acts make the world a worthwhile place.
So heart warming to receive this video. First, thank you to a great Metro Cop for serving & second, thank you to a citizen Visser du Plessis for taking the time to record & share. Please share a positive story.

If we try to simply go back to the way things were before, then the pain was all in vain; we would not have equiped ourselves with more

memory & wisdom needed for future challenges. Workshop the experience with your team & consciously implement learnings

I had a flat tyre in
#KrugerNationalPark
yesterday, with added complications. No signal. I had to get out to change wheels. This was Big 5 territory & its not easy on a Land Rover. We had several people stop & assist. It was absolutely heart warming. I love SA and it’s people!
#NatureMoment
This leopard with the smallest babies is so rare. It’s beyond special and the awesomeness can be heard in the voice of the recorder. Just stunning! Had to share. Made my day.

A week ago the Crocodile River in
#KrugerNationalPark
wasn’t much more than a large stream. Look at it now. It has grown up, overnight and it is flexing muscles. Rising by the minute with more rain coming.
I love the gentle nudge by this leopard Mother. She can pick them up and carry them, force them. But something in her knows they must follow voluntarily as that builds strength, character. She is patient. That’s leadership. Little or no force. Gentle persuasion.

Someone once said, the Lion is not the fastest (Cheetah), biggest (Elephant), wisest (Fox) or tallest (Giraffe) in the African Bush, yet it is the KING. Why? It has courage and walks with confidence...believing in itself.

#NewProfilePic
- I thought long & hard. Of all the great (and not so great) leaders I have met & interviewed - Presidents, CEO’s, sports icons - which well known one would I most want in my profile picture? There are few & this is one of them.

You can make money or build a great product or build a large business. But, nothing feels as good and is as important as changing lives, truly helping and uplifting another human being. Make sure your main focus is on people and not “things”.

I love the Baobab tree. It’s difficult to destroy. They can be burnt, or stripped of their bark, but they just form new bark and carry on growing. Be like the Baobab, no matter what, carry on growing. Be firm, immovable in your principles.

#KrugerNationalPark
No power for the last 15 hours. It is almost worth it for scenes like this.
But it’s hard to not wonder why we still don’t have people like Brian Molefe and others behind bars. Our justice and political systems are truly terminally ill. It needs a major overhaul.
As you go through extremely difficult times, remember you possess a life time of experiences, successes, failures, recoveries, pain, break throughs, wisdom & more. If you don’t trust this reservoir of life and draw from it, then it was all in vain, a waste of time.
#leadership
We live in challenging times. Everyone is struggling in some way, even those people you thought were always okay. If we are all struggling we all need one another, more than ever. When someone comes into your mind, reach out. We need more caring and less contention.
#leadership
Saw this on another platform. The importance of taking small steps. When you feel you can’t anymore, take one more step, even a small one. That might mean enduring just one more min, day, month or year. But just take that small step.
#leadership
I struggle deeply to understand that a wife and children arent allowed to visit their incredible husband and father in hospital who is on his last legs, dying from cancer. It just defies logic and humanity

#COVID19
Society allowed few to become insanely rich while millions suffer in poverty. It may backfire on all of us as the virus infiltrates densely populated and poorer communities. Now some Execs are sacrificing pay. Perhaps our values are being scrutinized and redefined?
#leadership
There is something in the air that’s forcing us to decide on which side of the fence we sit - right or wrong; love or hate; hope or dispair; being part of solutions or not; openly defending good or allowing bad to thrive through silence...

From scrubbing floors in a small Soweto General Dealership to Group HR Exec Spar. Missed my conversation with Dr. Thuli Tabudi? She also shared her views on authentic leadership. Pls retweet her inspirational story. Listen here:

@SABPP1
My in-laws are getting on in life & have been tested of late - from COVID19 to blood clots in the lungs to operations in both eyes. Yet, ask how they are doing & they answer: “Mom is fighting fit and Dad is fighting fat”. Humor & positive attitude is a powerful combination.
The problem of weak, toxic leadership is destroying our world - economically, politically, socially, morally, health wise... We need a greater and more coordinated effort to create awareness of authentic leaders / leadership; and then we need to get better at developing them.

Challenge “Nevers”: Learn from past facts but never allow it to hold you captive to what is possible. NEVER before has someone lost a pool match & gone on to win. SA just did it & shattered other “nevers” as well.

I have lost respect & interest in political leaders. They should be the humblest servants of all. Yet, most are arrogant, selfish & egotistical. This is why we sit with an electricity problem resulting from corruption & toxic

that continues to destroy our economy.
A message from
@StandardBankZA
just came through. So if I understand correctly this payment holiday is not just for businesses with turnover of less than 20m,
but applicable to personal loans as well? May all banks do this.

A Reminder to all that South Africa is a microcosm of the world. We are the live experiment. We must work things out, somehow, no matter how challenging. And it happens from the top down and bottom up when each of us lead from where we stand.

These 2 polls say everything about what a crisis can do for a leader. It also tells you how vulnerable you are in

; how you can go from hero to zero overnight. Always do what’s right, not what’s popular. Know yourself; your purpose. Stay true.

For Christians this is a long weekend when we celebrate the perfect

of Him who overcame our greatest obstacles of death & sin. He taught & exemplified eternal truths of happiness & success that continues to bless millions.

There are Creators & Critics. When you have the courage to create, know that you will be criticized. Critics hardly ever create but think it their place to criticize others’ creations instead. Mostly take seriously criticism from those that have created themselves.
My Grandmother (passed away at 103) taught me that complaining is a bad habit. My Mother taught me we can change & overcome our difficult past. My wife teaches me too much to mention. The women in my life have made/makes me a better human being & leader.

Before

our society was career focused and family supported. Now its more family focused and career supported. More people working from home & arranging work around family priorities & quality of life. Let’s build on this. More balance, happiness, improved

The first working day in 2021. May you awake with a deep sense of purpose or at least a deep desire to find it, not to save the world today but to make a difference in your own life, in someone’s life, in your family & perhaps in many lives, your community, country.

If only we had a culture of sharing authentic examples of kindness, Ubuntu,
