Our sense of agency can be elusive and unclear as it pertains to the energy we allow for specific thoughts, certain people, specific perspectives, and specific default patterns.

Do you really want to them to consume that much of your precious time and finite energy?

The following practises and habits help us make the invisible visible:
CEO time.
Reflective time.
Contemplation time.
Daydreaming time.
Meditation time.
Journal time.
Thinking about thinking time.
Meaningful conversations one to one.
Humans holding mirrors for each other.

Our thoughts run on deeply-held patterns like the wide, fast lanes on the Autobahn. To give energy to new perspective, and new thoughts is like walking uphill on a country road.

Notice. Name. Choose.
Lead yourself well.

Both /and.

How is it working for you?

Time to observe how to live your values in a meaningful way.
Time actualize the intentions.
Time to serve others in a way that honours your values and supports the change you want to influence.

Lead yourself well in the both/and.

Leadership is less about tasks and more about providing a healthy, developing context and culture that helps everyone do 'better together'.

Especially this month.

This month, there is so much more on the minds of the people around you.
Notice that.
Name that.
Accommodate what you can. As you can.

And may this Christmas season be meaningful to you, and for all

How is your team showing up?

Hmm, interesting.

Notice and Name.
Lead yourself well.
