Lead off
Imagine standing at the head of a trail, ready to step down that first path—that’s 'lead off.' It signifies starting something, often an event or a presentation. It’s like setting the tone or the pace; others will follow your lead. Whether it’s a race, a meeting, or an elaborate dance at a wedding, to 'lead off' is to take that initial, crucial step. Embrace the role of a leader, kickstart activities, and watch as others mirror your enthusiasm and energy.
