How do you feel about your work life and culture?
How do you feel about your work-life balance?

Our senses gather information from the environment and our nervous system processes the data. The nervous system regulates the emotions which influences our experience.

Notice what information is being collected by your nervous system. How will you respond to the information?

Notice the judgements, blame, toxicity or positivity in your response. Not right or wrong - just a helpful notice to help support what you can (and choose) to control in your environment.

One notice at a time can create a positive connection in your nervous system. Yes, you are worth this work and worth the time it takes to honour and respect your nervous system. This is mind-body-brain leadership.

Lead yourself well.

What if there was a way to communicate more authentically more often, while maintaining dignity without oversharing?

Ooooh wait, there IS a way to do that.

It involves personal growth.
It involves leaving the comfort zone of "I'm fine. Everything is fine."
It involves having the will to be authentic and to bear witness to the authenticity of others.
It involves doing the work of discovering the language that reflects how you are, in a way that connects with others, but doesn't require a deep follow up conversation of therapy or positive thinking or solution finding.l

Authentic connections. It's one of the many things that business and life cultures long for. Do the work. Be more you, more often, with respectful authentic language.

Lead yourself well.

Running on borrowed energy? (Where are you borrowing it from?)

Fatigue may be obvious or just below the surface, but you can't stop now. (Your world might fall and burn, without reasonable comeback or return.)

Maybe you don't need to run away. Maybe not all your work and life needs to stop. Perhaps a mindful double-click on the following areas might surface wisdom of where, when and how to rest:

... physical
... emotional
... mental
... social
... creative
... spiritual
... sensory

Double-click to surface clarity, then proceed to the follow-through.

Lead yourself well.

You are your brain.

The brain communicates with your mind and your body.
The brain is a system with over 200 different functions.
The brain has the ability to change it's structure and function over time (neuroplasticity) with repeated thoughts and actions.

Neurons that fire together, wire together.
Neurons that fail to link, fail to sync.

Seems to me that taking care of our brain health is an important and helpful skill and habit. At least for me, this will be a life-long intention. (Pretty sure, I am not going to nail it any time soon.) 😊

Lead yourself well.
