Focus: Be Present

Focus: Be Present

YouTube player

 

Being present is becoming more challenging. Our meeting culture of jumping from one meeting to another contributes to the challenge. So does the Internet, social media and the iPhone. All of our lives are filled with distractions that beckon for our attention. 

Simon Sinek and many others have talked about how phones are negatively impacting our relationships. Not that we need experts telling us that. We see it in our own lives and in the lives all around us.

Back in 2018 Harvard published a blog post, “Dopamine, Smartphones & You: A battle for your time.”

The challenge for our focus (our attention) is real. The solution is equally real, and possible. Do not give up hope. Or delude yourself into thinking it’s just how life is. Battle it with intention and purpose. Battle it hard enough to win. Because it’s a winnable war. 

Be well. Do good. Grow great!

Is Your Best Skill Being Coachable?

High performers are the most coachable people on the planet. They’re driven to get better. Always improving. 

High performers want to shoulder high expectations. They crave the responsibility and accountability. 

They remain curious – wondering how they might get better. It never crosses their mind to stop learning because all of life is an exercise to figure it out. To solve the problem of how they might improve. 

There’s the never ending quest to make a bigger difference!

Where does being coachable rank in your list of skills or attributes? Consider making it a top skill in your life – and in your career.

Pride Destroys Leadership

Pride Destroys Leadership

Proverbs 16:18
Pride goes before destruction, And a haughty spirit before a fall.

Lisa and I both agree that our leadership failures have always had one thing in common: pride. 

After almost 15 years of coaching executives I’ve discovered that we’re not alone. Every leader I know confesses their own failures stemmed from moments where pride got the best of them. Pride doesn’t hinder leadership. It destroys it.

Thank you for being part of our lives. We hope we’re having a positive impact on your leadership journey.

Don't Be Like Eeyore

Don’t Be Like Eeyore

They’re always down and out. They complain incessantly. They’re adept at seeing the dark side of every challenge. Or opportunity.

You don’t dare ask them how they’re doing because they’ll tell you.

Complaining is their main source of vibrancy.

Eeyore wasn’t a leader. That behavior won’t help us become leaders either.
