Tapping into Awareness Beyond Thought Is What You're Looking For
Tapping into Awareness Beyond Thought Is What You're Looking ForIt's Not About Perfecting a PersonaHello The leadership you are seeking in the 21st century emerges from a space of awareness deeper than thought. When you're fully aware, you naturally respond in the best way to each situation. The ego lets go of its need to control emotions, behaviors, or cling to fixed ideas about your values. You become aware of the 'space' between your thoughts and emotions. This allows for more conscious choices. The key thing is not what you're doing. It's the state of mind from which you do it. Develop awareness, and proper conduct emerges as a direct result. The action itself doesn't matter. The quality of consciousness behind it matters most. When we cultivate awareness, right action naturally follows. This perspective represents a shift from doing to being. We should focus on who we really are, not more techniques to improve our persona. From this awareness, leadership is our truth, not a set of learned behaviors. However, I know from my own inner leader journey that words can only point to the truth. Real understanding will only come from living and experiencing these principles in your own life and leadership. What would change in your work and workplace if you led from deep awareness instead of learned behaviors? How might your team respond to a leader who embodies awareness, rather than just applying learned techniques? This kind of leadership isn't found in a manual. You uncover it through practice, self-reflection, and life experiences. It happens through real connections with others on the same path. It also happens through the mirror they provide. It's a journey of continuous unfolding. Each step reveals new layers of self-understanding. You also learn about your impact on others. Where will you begin your exploration of awareness deeper than thought? Your stories and insights fuel this conversation. Join us in person to dive deeper. — Bill Bill Fox, Founder, LeaderONE |

Leadership: The Power of Less Hello Reader, Each morning, I wake up to an endless stream of posts on leadership that will somehow transform us into better leaders.But what if we're making it too complicated?Here's what I've experienced on my inner leader journey. It's more about clearing away the noise until all that remains is your authentic voice. Your presence. Your truth.The power isn't in what you add, but in what you remove. Because we've all been conditioned to be somebody else.Strip...
Awareness Is the Missing Link in Leadership Hello Reader, This morning, I discovered the profound quote from Dr. Helena Lass in my LinkedIn feed: "Awareness is the primal quality in the life of all living beings. This is the only instrument that enables us to establish an intimate contact with everything; being a bridge it is used to discover all objects. Although everyone possesses this potent instrument, its intentional and smart use is still largely unknown to the majority." I first became...
It's Not Happening to You—It's Happening from You Hello Reader, What if your organization isn't a set of problems to solve? What if it is a collective consciousness to recognize? This visualization captures a fundamental shift in how we understand leadership. At its core lies a truth: every challenge, success, or dynamic in an organization isn't happening TO us. It's happening FROM us. A dream seems to happen to us until we become lucid. Then, we recognize we are its creators. Leadership...
