The Law of the Lid.
I had never heard of this before. In all of my years learning about Leadership. Nothing.
Until a couple of weeks ago. Another podcast discussed it.
And I'm fascinated. How is the Boss from Hell limiting you because of his or her lid?
And how are you limiting yourself because of YOUR lid?
Let me know your thoughts.

This is another take on boundaries. I hear about boundaries frequently, so I will probably continue to talk about them.
Also, thanks to David, I'm cross-posting this episode on both the Bad Boss Podcast and Untoxic Positivity.
Listen to them both.

After recording this, I changed some of my thoughts. Not significant changes, mind you, but really some changes in semantics.
I'm not sure this is about being *WRONG* as much as considering the possibility that someone or something else might (also) be right.

The commute.
Where is your head from the time you start your waking day and you arrive at the office? Whether it's just downstairs in your remote office, or if you have a drive or ride to get to the office.
The commute can help you get into the right mindset, or it can keep you off track, dreading any interaction you might have with the Boss from Hell.
This week, we discuss some tactics that might help you stay right-minded.

This week, we talk about our habitual thoughts. Sometimes, what we think comes from habit rather than from actual conscious thought.
Are you thinking what you want to think? If not, what might change (like your identity!!) if you had different thoughts?
