Do The Right Thing.

Lead, drive and inspire. Do the right thing is something we all hear, throughout our lives. While working for Nike, I have learned many lessons in coaching others towards success – one being that it is imperative to do things the right way.

Pride yourself on doing the right things along your path to success. This will make a difference not only for yourself, but for those around you to gain inspiration from your actions.

#TheStruggle – too often we encounter this overly used phrase, littered across social media. Sometimes we feel we can relate to the idea of this struggle, and mistakingly fall victim to decisions that are not in our best interest or carry a positive result.

At times, while doing the right thing we may feel there is no return, or immediate gratification. However, doing the right thing is not based off of a point system; you won’t always get out what you put in. Receiving recognition or acknowledgment for living justly, as a good Samaritan, is not the point; it is about leaving your positive mark on a universe that needs it.

Imagine if every superhero you enjoyed growing up with, expected something in return. It’s impossible to repay something you should be doing anyway. All struggles and obstacles we deal with in life come and go, they are tests to YOUR testimony. So today and every day, let’s not worry about how we are perceived and simply work on ourselves, by doing the right thing. Let’s lead a great world, by being an even greater example.
