How To Make The Hard Calls

DAY 23: 90 Days. 90 Sparks.

Leadership isn’t just about making decisions.
It’s about making the hard ones.

The uncomfortable ones.
The ones that might disappoint someone.
The ones with uncertain outcomes.

But here’s what smart leaders know:
Avoiding hard calls doesn’t protect your team.
It holds them back.

So how do you make the tough calls?
– Start with the bigger picture, not short-term comfort.
– Listen to others, but take ownership.
– Decide courageously, but explain with empathy.

Because indecision has a cost.
And leadership is about stepping up, not stepping back.

Today’s Spark:
Hard decisions don’t get easier. You just get braver.
