This idea is coming alive for me lately.
The concept of “making it” or “arriving.”
𝗜 𝗱𝗼𝗻’𝘁 𝗮𝗰𝗰𝗲𝗽𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗻𝗼𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗱𝗮𝘆 𝗜’𝗹𝗹:
- Stop challenging myself
- Believe I don’t have any more to learn
- Think that I have nothing more to accomplish
𝗪𝗵𝘆? 𝗕𝗲𝗰𝗮𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝗜 𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗲𝘃𝗲:
- We can always learn and develop our abilities.
- Our teams can always innovate new ways to execute.
𝗧𝗼 𝗱𝗼 𝘀𝗼, 𝘄𝗲 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝗮𝗻 𝗲𝗻𝘃𝗶𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗼𝗳…
- Transparency
- Not needing rewards for motivation
- Freedom to try crazy things (with guardrails)
𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗶𝘀 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗽𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗳𝗼𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗲𝗻𝘃𝗶𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁.
What if the leader doesn’t embrace these ideas?
The rest of the team has a major uphill battle.
It’s a lifelong practice
The sooner you embrace the journey, the better.
