  • John Wick has a broken heart

    John Wick has a broken heart
    Jul 26 2023
    On the surface, the frenetic John Wick movies follow a man who is impossibly angry. The anger takes top billing, but it is really just a response to being heartbroken.

    What does this have to do with you? Sometimes the people you work with will make confusing decisions, or react in unexpected ways, because of root causes you don’t understand.

    Instead of vilifying and dismissing them, consider engaging with them to explore their motivations.

    What do THEY want to achieve?What pressures are THEY navigating?What are THEY afraid of?

    Their motivations don't excuse their actions – John Wick isn't a "good guy" – but understanding their motivations will give you insight about how to maximize your effectiveness when working with them.

  • This is why so many people get stuck

    This is why so many people get stuck
    Jul 26 2023
    Last year my wife and I took a trip to Bora Bora for our 25th anniversary and one morning we decided to do some stand-up paddle boarding in the lagoon.
    I had never tried it before, but I thought I would be figure it out without much struggle.
    Long story short: it was much more difficult than I expected. 
    I was eventually able to stand and navigate the mild swells of the lagoon, but I was a clumsy mess when I started out.
    I am learning to embrace being a clumsy mess, because the path to growth and mastery begins with incompetence. You cannot grow as a professional without betraying your desire for comfort and competence. 
    Here’s the thing: The act of leveling up will absolutely require you to embrace becoming a beginner today so that you can be a master in the future. Wax on, wax off, and all that.
    How often you are stretching yourself beyond the comfort of the known?
    How often are you developing new connections in your brain by learning to do something you’ve never done before?
    How often are you embracing incompetence as a necessary phase of your personal and professional growth?
    It feels good to be good at things, but if you stop there you will never be any better than you are today.

  • This is how you unstuck anything

    This is how you unstuck anything
    Jul 26 2023
    Procrastination gets the best of everyone from time to time, but here’s a simple way to jump start your progress when you feel stuck.
    Consider the smallest component of the task in front of you and commit to accomplishing that singular element. 
    You don’t have to finish the expense reports, you just have to collect the receipts. You don’t have to organize your office, you just have to clean out your pen cup. You don’t have to write your dissertation, you just have to do a brain dump of things that might need to be included. 
    That’s it. Once you do that simple task, you’re done!
    Except, you will likely find that you’re not done at all. The act of making ANY kind of forward progress will often unlock the ability to make a little more forward progress, and before you know it you’ve accidentally accomplished a great deal more than you thought you would.
