"You Become What You Think About" – The 2018 EntreLeadership Summit

SYTE Founder and CEO, Erin Koss, had the opportunity to participate in the EntreLeadership Summit in San Antionio, Texas on May 21-23. Here’s what she had to say about how she was impacted.

Last week I had the opportunity to attend Dave Ramsey’s EntreLeadership Summit in San Antonio, Texas. I was looking forward to meeting interesting people who, like me, were there to improve their leadership skills and to grow their businesses in a variety of ways.

I was struck by how emotional, even visceral, the energy was at the conference due in no small part to the caliber of the speakers. It was energizing to listen to Donald Miller, Seth Godin, Dan Cathy and Condoleezza Rice and others talk about leadership and what it means to truly see, connect, and serve others—things that really resonate with us here at SYTE.

It was affirming to feel like my personal and business lives were coming together in ways that were meaningful.  It gave me increased confidence to live out my core values through SYTE as we invest in individuals and organizations in order to build communities around the world.

Dave quoted Earl Nightengale; it’s an oldie, but it’s one of my favorites, “You become what you think about”.  This reminded me of Luke12:34 (also a favorite of mine), “For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” Both are great reminders that who, how, and what you spend your energy and time on will be where you will bear fruit.
