10 things that STOP people getting what they want that my clients don’t experience anymore
I absolutely LOVE working with leaders who are inspired to build something amazing while also uniting a group of people behind that cause. The truth is that they are highly competent individuals BUT in MOST cases the skills that got them to where they are are the exact same skills that are causing their struggles in health, energy, communication and relationship.
Through my REINVENTION programme I support them to adopt the skills of understanding and embracing their brain to use it more to their advantage. Using prediction and response to create calm in themselves and others and using curiosity to give themselves and others the clarity they need to become autonomous and happy.
Do it. Do it poorly. Do it wrong. But Do it
here is this really funny thing that happens when someone does their first triathlon.
They take their time to make sure they are well prepared.
They relentlessly practise their swimming, their cycling and running to the degree where they are MORE than competent at each.
Yet something quite unexpected happens.
Their recorded time is often DOUBLE what they expected.
The equation in their head during preparation was,
Swim + Cycle + run = triathlon
The reality, any hardened triathlete will tell you, is VERY different.
There are a million different ingredients that are hard to list even if you have experienced them.
Tasks so small as to seem irrelevant.
Like putting socks on with wet feet or trainers on to once wet now sweaty swollen feet to start the run.
An Invitation To Do Less
Read the same book again. All learning is associative. This means if your intent is to integrate the knowledge in the book you’re reading into your life then your best bet is to read it again.
To make notes.
To re-read those notes and to tell a bunch of people about it.
Someone else might read 3 books in the time you read your book.
