"Do as I say, not as I do" 🤣
this time the LOL was at my expense
yesterday i taken to post about having metrics for professional development
for the express purpose of seeing:
🟢opportunity
🟢possibility
🟢growth
not for the express purpose of:
🔴getting angry with yourself
🔴negative self-talk
🔴value judgement
so it should come as no surprise
yesterday i set my goal to write 3 LinkedIn posts for the week in 4 pomodoros*
(pomodoro = a cycle of a 25 min working session + 5 min break)
so when it took me 2 pomodoros to write 1 post....
yup you guessed it
the anger at myself:
"when will you ever get good at this?!"
i could sense that feeling bummed...like i was tying my value to the achieving this goal
all i could do was laugh....
and get to writing this post
for those of us as leaders and coaches we can often find it a challenge to "practice what we preach"
we talk often about seeing the red, yellow, green on our huddle boards 🚦
we tell our team to not see these as successes or failures
but as signs for opportunity
it sounds great....in theory it's harder to practice....in reality
especially in our own lives as lean leaders
how can we measure how we are growing as leaders without judging ourselves
In today's video I'm going to tell you a story about my past that very few know and the three words that literally changed me life...and will change yours too
