Good morning to all our leaders and teams. Welcome to the Morning Cup. It is here where we hope that you do two things. Bring the coffee and bring a friend. It is where we do a few things like challenge, inspire, and build your curiosity to getting you and your team better.
Let’s play a little Red Light, Green Light. Here comes the Red light first.
🛑
Stop looking for an external fix within you or your team. Stop looking for what the HBR posts about improving your team. Stop looking for a specialist/coach/consultant for improving you. Nobody can fix what you have inside if you don’t first know what is inside you. No more external fixes. These come long after the green light below.
🟢
Start looking internally. What can I do? The answer lies inside of us. We must become aware of the problem, use what we have inside of us, and persevere through. Take a look at your current problem or issue. What could you do today to improve the issue? What can you do personally? Who could you connect with on your team that might help you? What is it you really need?
Our fixes are possible within our team. If they aren’t possible, then, and only then can we begin looking outside ourselves. You are the FIRST, SECOND, and THIRD OPTION!
Have a great day and God Bless
