Master 1 thing to always win

Reader, do you like to win? I'm going to tell you something that is the exact opposite of everything you were taught in school. What you know is less important than your willingness to learn something new. This week's #ShowUpPositive Spark is LEARN. This is your invitation to embrace your beginner's mindset and set aside your knowing. Here's why this move is a game-changer:
This week, I invite you to challenge what you think you know by approaching each conversation as a learning opportunity, seeking to gain the wisdom and insight of others. And if you want a place to start your practice, join me today (Monday) at 12:30 ET for my LinkedIn Audio Event, Talk Me Off the Ledge. I began the Talk Me Off the Ledge audio events at the start of this year. After eight months of intentionally choosing inquiry and learning for 45 minutes each week, I've deepened my curiosity and openness to hearing new perspectives. I've gained wisdom and forged new relationships. The community building is as meaningful as the content. Learning is about more than acquiring knowledge. Learning is a way of being that makes space for others to shine and share their wisdom in a way that has them seen and valued. Come join me on The Ledge and see what I mean. 🥰 Who do you know that is looking for a speaker for meetings, workshops, or trainings? An introduction would be awesome! 🥰 |

Reader, I know we are supposed to hate change, but do you ever think it would do you good? This week's #ShowUpPositive Spark, RECALIBRATE, is inspired by my seventeen year old daughter.

So when one of these folks asked her to stay at there farm and take care of the animals while they were away on vacation, we were a little...
Reader, I've got three words for you: mindset, meaning, and MacGyver. It turns out that MINDSET + MEANING + MACGYVER is the secret to this week's #ShowUpPositive Spark, RESILIENT Let's start with MINDSET and break it down. The first common trait shared by resilient people and companies is their staunch acceptance of reality. Rather than adopting a baseless optimism and being disappointed repeatedly, resilient people accept the reality of their situation, no matter how brutal, while...
