That’s how I felt this week – JEALOUS π
I’m so lucky to coach clients with interesting, exciting, & meaningful work – but sometimes I’m jealous that they’re the ones that get to actually do it π
This week I’ve been coaching clients who are:
βοΈ developing a 5 year strategy in their new job
βοΈ embarking on new study to support their career change
βοΈ defining how to achieve a high-perfomance culture in their department
βοΈ about to start designing, building and then leading a new operational function
βοΈ delivering a new one year action plan.
“You’re living vicariously” one client said to me.
And it’s so true! π
I sometimes miss leading a team to deliver results
– but as a coach I get to support my clients in doing this, in so many different fields.
And the joy & satisfaction when THEY succeed is as good π₯°
I saw an interview recently where Barack Obama was asked what advice he would give people starting in their careers. He said:
“just learn how to get stuff done.”
He went on to say:
“I’ve seen at every level people who are very good at describing problems … but what I’m always looking for is, no matter how small the problem or how big it is, somebody who says, ‘let me take care of that’.”
And that’s something that all my fabulous clients have in common π
They may sometimes be hampered by an unsupportive, disempowering mindset – that terrible Imposter voice π
But DESPITE this, they’re still people who get stuff done πͺ
And you honestly can’t ask for better than that – as their employer, their team member – or their coach π₯°
So hats off to all of you out there who are getting stuff done! ππ
And remember that, fundamentally, that’s what it’s all about.
Even when things feel tough, if you are moving forward, then you are winning π€©ππͺ
π₯ Keep going!
π₯ Keep celebrating the little (and big!) wins along the way.
π₯ And most importantly, keep telling yourself “you’ve got this” – don’t let that inner critic drag you down…
So, this week, remember, YOU’VE GOT THIS! ππ₯πͺ
Wishing you a positive, productive, and GETTING STUFF DONE-filled week! ππ₯πͺ
with much love ππ§‘
