Are you an exceptional human being?

Six qualities every human being should aspire to have.

Let’s start with a disclaimer about the word exceptional.

It’s connected to the two words human and being.

I’m not discussing in this insight whether you are an exceptional manager or leader.

No, I mean here how you live your life, interact with others, and make a difference daily.

For yourself and others.

Let’s agree that we don’t think now that we’re all work in progress and nobody is exceptional.

I know that’s the case, but that shouldn’t stop us from having the ambition to be exceptional and be and do so daily.

I’ll start.

I think I am an exceptional human being.

If you know me well and happen to disagree, please reply to this message and let me know why you disagree.

I love good, constructive, and actionable feedback.

And, of course, I also know I’m not perfect, I have my flaws and some blind spots here and there.

So am I exceptional in the continuous, every day, with every single person kind of way?
