Read More »Sometimes the rules aren't so obvious. Sometimes the rules are just assumptions about the way life has to be. Expectations. Status quo. Rule breakers and trail blazers aren't limited to the heroes we read about in history books. Earth shakers are all around us. We all have heroes in our daily lives--mothers, fathers, siblings, children, co-workers, and friends--who've improved our lives by going against the stream. My good friend Tao Porchon-Lynch is 94 years young and blazes trails all over the globe leading yoga classes and reminding people that they have the power within to accomplish anything. Occasionally she brings me along for the ride and I am energized and inspired by her presence. My husband Mike Taylor took a leap of faith into the direction of his interests and talents and adopted a career switch from technology start ups to Strala. (Working beside me daily takes some major rule breaking skills!) Maybe it's a mother who believed in your artistic dream before you did. A friend who encouraged you to leave the boyfriend who was perfect on paper, but not for you. A sister who started practicing yoga and inspired you to take better care of your health. Our heroes are important to us because they believed in their vision for how life could be when no one else did. They took giant leaps of faith, went against the grain, broke the rules, and left the world a better place. Sometimes "following the rules" means holding ourselves back. It's easy to fall into habits and stay in our comfort zone. I don't buy the "fear of failure" routine. We all can imagine our own failure. What's more difficult to imagine is our success. It's uncharted, unscripted, and completely unbound.

In contrast, the platinum rule would have us all treat the person we're interacting with the same way that everyone else does.
The "golden rule", as we were all taught as children, is to treat others as we wish to be treated. Then we got older and the "platinum rule" was introduced, to treat others as they wish to be treated. In business and in life, I still find this lacking. I try to practice what I call the "diamond rule". In the "diamond rule", you treat others as they wish YOU to treat them. The "you" in this case is the individual "you". Who you are and what you bring to the conversation. In contrast, the platinum rule would have us all treat the person we're interacting with the same way that everyone else does. Who then will give them an alternate perspective? Who will ask the questions that no one else did? Who will build them up after a failure or remind them to stay humble after a success? In my opinion, being authentic and credible is about being the person the other person expects us to be: ourselves. Paraphrasing Drucker's classic, "The Effective Executive", I am suggesting that we ask ourselves, "What is it about me that this person needs that only I can provide?" and "Why did they come to me?". To put this into practice, if you're the cheerleader type, be that. People need your optimism. If you tend to be critical or the expert in finding the flaws, then embrace it, that's why they came to you. Of course there is a right way and wrong way to deliver the negative opinion - time and place and a simple turn of phrase can do wonders for how the news is received. But in the end, be who you are and others will seek you out for what only you can provide.
