All-around leader series #1: 100 meter sprint!


Listen Later

Today we start the decathlon of leadership!  Event number 1 is the 100 meter sprint.

Three key lessons that we can learn from the 100 m sprint:

Tune out the noise

It demands focus

Distraction is the enemy

line up-- block out anything else, and focus.

This often takes a routine--

Doing the same things in preparation - born out of habit, repetition, success

Would often "practice starts"

Stay in your lane:

Disqualified if you ran out of your lane--

You need to know your role, and perform to your best ability in that role.

Sometimes I need to ask myself, what is my role in this situation?

Was it to just listen?  To act, to solve the problem-

Acting out of our lane can get you into big trouble

Don't look back:

Never any use in looking back-- once the gun goes off, you're either sprinting or your not.

Encouragement

Positive mental attitude

Enthusiasm, Dreamer, Coach, Mentor, Friend
