This week I am at the Down Syndrome Affiliates in Action (DSAIA) Leadership Conference in Cincinnati, Ohio. Before I explain what that has to do with you, I wanted to share the photo above.
That is me Thursday evening with Bill Clement, 2-time Stanley Cup Champion, author, broadcaster, speaker and entrepreneur. That big chunk of medal on my hand is one of Bill's two championship rings.
On Friday Bill gave a talk that reminded me why I started Mighty Purpose, why I do the work I do, and re-inspired me. Bill had 3 messages that I believe we should all take to heart.
An important part of this conference to me is sharing with the other attendees. So this week the folks at DSAIA allowed me to present a couple of breakout sessions. One session I facilitated was about the most important questions all organizations should ask.
I love those the questions. What makes them special (and why you should care) is that these questions are also the most important questions you should be asking and answering about your life. I called my session "The Perfect Organization". Let's instead call these questions The Perfect Life Test.
Here it is.

- Do not live in the past. Whether the you accomplished things of towering success or failed in painful miserable ways, it does not serve you to live at any time but right now.
- Being a source of energy for those around you. Don't be an energy vampire.
- Instead of pushing those around, pull them with through your example.
