“We all need people in our lives who raise our standards, remind us of our essential purpose, and challenge us to become the-best-version-of-ourselves.”
Matthew Kelly
Coaching Tip for the Week:
It’s been said that you become the average of the 5 people with whom you spend the most time. As of today, are you o.k. with that?
I cannot stress enough the importance of surrounding yourself with people who support you, inspire you, and challenge you to raise your game. Not a bunch of “yes men” or people exactly like you, but those who make you want to work more meaningfully and live more purposefully.
Keep this in mind, too: Everyone is here to teach you something – even those who frustrate you or drain your energy. You can treat them with patience, kindness, and compassion even while choosing to limit the amount of time you spend with them.
This week, connect with one of your raise-your-game colleagues. Invite her out for coffee or dinner, and give one another the best of yourselves.
Chances are high you will both leave the meeting feeling energized, stronger, and ready to take on the world!
