Happy Valentine’s Day!
Love letters are a great way to let someone know exactly how you feel. Whether you believe today is simply an over-commercialized capitalistic run at greeting cards, chocolates and flowers, or that the day embodies the heart and soul of what makes us human and connected, today, I do reflect on the many kinds of love that fill my heart.
I love thoughtful thought leadership.
I love Thinkers that show-up without showing off.
I love Thinkers who sell their ideas without selling their souls.
I love Thinkers who bring ideas into this world without being a jackass about it.
I love Thinkers who present ideas instead of bloating their status.
I love Thinkers who don’t pander for likes, comments and subscribes.
I love Thinkers who know the difference between building a personal brand and self-marketing (they are not the same).
I love Thinkers who build frameworks without being a “market of one.”
I love Thinkers who are quotable and don’t create social media content quotes about their own work.
I love Thinkers who make money because their ideas get implemented/work and not because they simply said something on social media.
I love Thinkers who think deeply before hitting the publish button.
What is the heart of the Thoughtful Thought Leader?
If you are a Thoughtful Thought Leader, I’d like to get to know you better.
Happy Valentine’s Day!

I love that every sentence in this letter makes you pause and think about how you’re personally walking that line. I think we can fumble without realizing it. Thanks for sharing!! P.S. It’s been a while, hope all is well 👋!!
