Business Tip Tuesday 🚀

Recently I had a conversation with a client that made me stop and think about my own performance and attitude. Our conversation centered on why some people seem so much more successful than others do. More importantly, why are some more successful than others? After all, we all have 24 hour, 7 day weeks right?

It became clear to me very quickly, some did what others were simply unable or unwilling to do! More over, the ones who were held accountable – grew by leaps and bounds. Why you ask… because they were coached and held to a higher standard! They were able to set goals and maximize their output without getting burnt out. 

What we discussed was a few simple character traits that seemed to contribute to their overall success:

Hi, I’m Janese! I’m a student at Syracuse University and have been an intern for Jeff Rogers for the past several months now, and let me tell you, it’s been nothing short of exciting! I’ve gotten the chance to delve into topics like engagement, blindspots, learn about all the leadership development series offerings, and above all, be super hands-on with the JRCI team!

Although this is different from the Business Tip Tuesdays that you've come to expect each week, today’s article (written by me!) is still aimed to share a valuable perspective of what I've been able to learn from the Jeff Rogers Coach team about prioritization!

Where are you going? Do you know, does your team know? Do your customers know? Without Vision, everyone blows aimlessly in the wind—rudderless in turbulent water. To me, it starts with personal Vision.

As an executive leader, your personal vision statement must align with the corporate organizational vision statement at the personal level.

Without alignment, how can an executive drive organizational vision? If the personal Vision is not in alignment from the start, how can there be success? The dilemma is that most corporate executives and small business owners do not have a clearly defined personal vision, let alone a written vision Statement – I think you know where we are going by now!

Our communication style effects our unique personal effectiveness. The words we choose matter if we wish to communicate effectively personally, professionally, and organizationally! It's a mindset thing. If you work with me, you know mindset is everything. Our mindset establishes our tone. If the mindset is out of balance, desired outcomes, and thus profitability, will no doubt follow suit.

Do you find yourself consistently overwhelmed with work and wishing you had more time for your loved ones? Many business owners, executives, and leaders can relate to this struggle. But what if there was a way to empower your employees so that you don't have to be the sole problem-solver in your organization?

Imagine a scenario where you can take a vacation without worrying about every little detail in your business. It may seem impossible, but it's not. By giving your team the trust and autonomy to solve problems on their own, you can free up your time to focus on the bigger picture.

The value of Patience while building relationships at work is invaluable when aiming to build trust with your people. To have patience is to nurture, as leaders we play the long game. Nurturing is the long play. Below we will explore why patience is vital for the executive, owner, manager, and human being for earning strong relationships and results at work.

In our relentless quest for success, we often forget to prioritize one crucial aspect of our lives: self-care. With the increasing demands of personal, professional, and organizational roles, we tend to push ourselves beyond our energy limits, leading to stress, burnout, and an overall sense of dissatisfaction. However, understanding and managing your unique energy – your "Ness" – can transform your life.

The short and sweet answer:  Self-Care
