What is my Solstice?

The Summer Solstice officially begins at 2:46 A.M., EDT on Tuesday, June 21.

Solstice comes from the Latin -- sol, sun; sistit, stands. Several days before and after the longest day of the year, the sun appears to stand still in the sky.

So what, you may ask?

If the sun unceasingly commits itself to standing for something, then shouldn’t you consider the same? Ask yourself. What is my Solstice?

It’s a question that every self-ascribed leader should be asking himself or herself this summer season. There are no right or wrong answers, but if you can’t honestly ask yourself the question, then leadership may be more elusive than you think.
