If you're a solopreneur, you understand how incredibly important it is to exercise all visionary, integrator, and catalyst skills. In this episode I'll explain you how you can start exercising all three stances in small steps. My practice as a coach requires all three of them actively and constantly dancing around. Let me explain how that happens and how you can too through the ELSPARC process.

A successful initiative requires three key components: a visionary, an integrator, and a catalyst/coach. I explain my proposition for this triangle of leadership.

Remember the story of that little girl and the three bears? Not too much, not too little, but "just right". I explore the Goldilocks principle applied to learning and leadership.

Do you know this proverb that says: "An old dog can't learn new tricks"? I am telling you, that proverb is funny for adult educators like me because I don't believe that, I don't!

When we improve the way we speak, not only it relays information, it also relays emotions like inspiration, motivation, challenge, empathy, and achievement.

What good does it do to manage time if you don't know the purpose to which you use it? It starts there: your purpose.

Waiting for the right conditions doesn't matter. Get to work and celebrate progress over perfection.

Accountability is good on its own, without liability. Understand the difference, leverage it to be more effective and productive.

Reclaiming motivation in today's day and age is still somewhat simple, despite all distractions, competition and stimuli. It only takes a little bit of discipline and a sprinkle of time.

Oh, distractions. Who doesn't have them in 2023? Life is more exciting than it's ever been, and it's in our best interest to give the right time to the right things. When we are distracted, we lose focus and we procrastinate. It's that simple.

Good news for you: there is a right time to be distracted, every day, every week, every year. You are entitled to it, and you get to choose when. When you accept distraction for what it is, you leverage it by being intentional about when to do absolutely focused work and then rewarding yourself with something to cool off.
