Ever had to deliver a 60 second introduction? Ever had to sit through 30-40 other peoples introductions and still by the end of it, you haven't got a clue who the people are in this room?

That's way more common than you think. I created an exercise in 2012 and have been doing this ever since. Three simple questions. Not easy questions, but simple, those two things are not the same.

These simple but not easy questions, when you invest time into them, curating and creating them authentically, they can become a game changer. Want to know the questions? (because I really want to know your answers)

Have a go and DM me. Get in touch, let's talk them through. Be awesome.

Remember the game we would play as parents, as uncles and aunties, as grown ups with young babies.

Peek a boo! We would hide behind our hands and the toddler would love it. The Swiss Psychologist Jean Piaget explains that up until 4 months of age, a child believes that if an object cannot be seen, then it no longer exists!

Between the ages of 4-7 months a child develops what Piaget discovered and calls 'Object Permanence' which means the baby's understanding of when something disappears it is not gone forever.

This got me thinking...what if any research has been done similarly for adults when it comes to joy, happiness, mood and states for example. And plugging away on the web, plus using some AI research support, I am struggling to find anything. Doesn't mean it doesn't exist (or does it, if no one has joined these thought processes before, who knows!).

Phil Stutz, co author of the book 'The Tools'. A doctor of Psychiatry tells a story of when he took a flight with his Dad and the weather was pretty awful that day. He was young, so flying back then (1960's) was less common, however, he was nervous flying for the first time and bad weather didn't help, his Dad calmly said "it's OK son, once we get above the clouds, the sun is out and it will be gorgeous".

Phil remembers thinking and feeling 'How can that be?" As the sun wasn't out, he couldn't see it, the clouds were there. Yet, just as his father said, once they got above the clouds, there was the beautiful sun and blue sky.

That got me thinking about our moods, our choices, and how we are affected by what we can or cannot see, hear or feel. That is todays 'Musing'.

Enjoy, I hope it helps.

In case the grammar police are wondering....watch it or listen for the context because the grammar is correct!

Over the years, so many people have come to our events and weren't sure whether they were good enough for the coaching programmes. Stop and think about that for a minute, imagine thinking you are not good enough to be coached and supported to become better with a team who care about your results. But you may be surprised to know this is more common than not.

So this is that! All of YOU is welcome. No matter where you are at, what is going on for you, wherever your confidence or abilities are right now, you deserve to get the support that is affordable and effective to become better.

Reach out... DM us...it is that simple. No judgement, just real support.

We hear this a lot right?

But why does it always feel that the context it is discussed is a 'one off' thing.

As coaches an therapists, our role is to support people to grow, so surely where they are at is constantly changing. Are we recognising that in the coaching and support journey?

Calling all the leaders & managers..."Nobody comes into work, just to piss you off!"

May sound strange for some, may completely land for others. Here is the thing when it comes to leadership and management, nobody does. But OMG at times, can it feel like it!

Sometimes we just need to hear that reminder to restock, get back in a better state and go again. Other times, we need to properly look at ourselves and our business practices. What are WE doing that is showing that it is OK to behave in a way that just doesn't fit with our values?

How can we help?

What can we do to support?

How can we be a better leader?

Seriously stop!

Stop asking for sliver bullets. It's bullshit! they don't exist and even if they did, who's to say you can even aim right?

This musing, may have turned into a slight rant! Unlike me, I know! 🤣

But seriously...stop asking for silver bullets. Work at your craft. Get better at being a good human. That's the work!

No doubt you have all heard, and all talk about 'personal accountability' in the workplace. But, how much do you discuss, address and evolve 'shared responsibility' in your teams.

The dishwasher is not mine!

A simple analogy that helps share the important message about shared responsibility and how it nurtures and creates better personal accountability.
