Go, Create a Genius. That’s Your Job for Today!
At 8 years old…
Edward thinks nothing of a 55-kilometre bike ride with his Dad.
That’s on Saturday.
On Sunday he’ll fit in a couple of games of rugby.
Since his brother does the same…
It’s just what is expected in his family.
When you’re the Leader of a financial planning firm…
Your colleagues – inside and outside the business – will perform to your expectations.
They’ll rise to what you see in them.
To what you – without words – communicate to them… what’s possible in them.
With every gesture, every glance, every facial expression.
This is not Woo Woo.
This is science.
Leadership science.
If what you see is someone whose pinnacle is to perform productively in their role…
the role that you have set for them…
Then that’s what you’ll get.
No more. No less.
Which is breathtakingly sad…
Considering the wonder of the Being that you have within your reach.
Inside each team member is a roaring genius.
Your responsibility – if you’ve chosen to recruit and lead them – is to discover that roaring genius.
To discover it and liberate it.
To liberate it and multiply it.
That IS your responsibility.
That’s the job.
And if you don’t?
If you never look beyond their role description…
If you never speak to the genius they hardly dare believe lies within them?
Then something dies.
Not visibly.
Not with a sound.
But quietly, in the corner of your business.
A flame that could have burned bright…
is dimmed.
But what if you do?
If you expect more…
If you see them as bigger than their job title…
If you treat them as creators, not just cogs?
Well… they rise.
They discover gifts they didn’t know they had.
They do work they didn’t believe was possible.
They bring you energy you could never have bought.
And suddenly your firm is not just productive.
It is alive.
It breathes.
It sings.
It grows in ways no spreadsheet could ever predict.
👉 That’s leadership.
👉 That’s what it means to multiply genius.
👉 That’s the Soul Millionaire way.
May your Friday be filled with moments of genius – both discovered and created!
