Another knot for me to untie

# Chapter 349

Another canceled leadership trip. Another person fails to invest in themselves. Why do we do this all the time? We are quick and eager to help others, or do those actions which bring attention or favor our way, but to address what is going on inside of us and to be better? Nah we aren’t all that interested in doing those things, even when someone else pays for the privilege. We are too busy for that. We are too overwhelmed for those choices. We are too stressed to even think about it and let it happen. And these three sentences reveal that you need to invest in yourself more than ever! If you were reading this about someone else, you would be yelling, “take some time to relax, develop, and invest in yourself, you big goofus!”

You can’t buy development at the store, you can not just make a decision and be a leader the next day like magic, you can’t be the person everyone needs you to be by working yourself to death and think you are going to win something important because you put in more hours than anyone else. Seth asks, “What if this were easy?” And I put much of my effort into making leadership and development easy. I come to you. I pay the airfare, all you have to do is show up and be fully present. And yet, still another canceled leadership trip. I get it, no one wants to dive too deeply into the things that make us tick, except those who want to excel exceptionally, which is not most of us. But there has to be another way to help you get where you want to go . . . another knot for me to think on and untie.
