Description

Making decisions conducive to your goals. Leadership is more about what you do than what you say. Have a conviction, decide if you are willing to deal with the negative that might happen, and move forward. The longer you sit in indecision, the longer you are delaying the potential positive. Thinking about doing the work is actually more stressful and anxiety inducing than just doing the work.

No More Drama!: Key Takeaways: Understanding how thoughts and feelings contribute to decision-making is key to influential leadership. Influential leadership creates sustainable workforces with less turnover and more productivity. The first step towards becoming an influential leader is to go inward. Be willing to understand how the thoughts, beliefs, and experiences that you had when you were young impact the decisions that you make today. Guilt is when we feel bad for what we do and shame is when we feel bad about who we are. Most things that upset us originate from deeply rooted feelings of guilt and shame. When navigating conflict of others or your own, pay attention to what’s making you and others feel uncomfortable. An influential leader’s job is to create more good leaders. When you practice influential leadership, not only are you creating a more influential and conscious leadership for yourself, but you're also teaching others how their thoughts and feelings contribute to t by The Influential Nonprofit

And we can agonize over those decisions and feel tremendous regret if they don't work out the way we hoped they would. But it's almost impossible to make rational decisions when the future is so unpredictable. Past experience doesn't provide a road map anymore. Instead of applying more data-power and algorithmic thinking, I'm finding that developing a calm presence allows me to tap into body wisdom. And also that most decisions ultimately end up being made for me, not by me. How are you dealing with decision-making these days?
