E69: Quieting the Restless Leader: Steering Back to Your True Path
Manage episode 392915026 series 3481445
Have you ever caught yourself chasing the next thrill, only to realize you've strayed from your true path? This is the restless saboteur within, a common adversary for many leaders, including myself. As part of our 12 Days of Christmas Leadership Series on 'Breaking Up with Self Sabotage', we tackle this very issue. With the New Year unfolding, we’re wishing for your leadership journey to be laden with learning, courage, and victories. Today's focus is on quelling that inner restlessness that craves constant novelty, a trait that can spark innovation but also lead us astray from our core responsibilities and goals.
Harnessing my own boundless energy and zest for new experiences, I share how I've learned to set boundaries and stay grounded in the present—practices that are far from easy, but incredibly rewarding. I'll walk you through the importance of understanding the reasons behind your restlessness and how implementing tools like timers and accepting nudges from loved ones (a big thank you to my dear husband, Greg) can help redirect your focus. We also discuss transforming that impatient energy into productivity, allowing you to become the empathetic and effective leader destined to inspire and influence. Join us as we embrace the present, channel our energies wisely, and step confidently into our leadership roles, ready to make a lasting impact.
