At some point in life, we all experience moments of failure and frustration. Whether it’s not meeting our own expectations, facing setbacks, or feeling stuck in a rut, these emotions can weigh heavily on us and sap away our motivation. However, it’s crucial to remember that setbacks are a natural part of the journey toward success. The key lies in how we navigate these challenging moments and find the motivation to keep moving forward. Today, I want to explore some strategies to reignite your motivation when you’re feeling like a failure and frustrated.
Being a Good Leader
As lawyers we often sign up for chaos. Many of us thrive in it. But here’s the thing about chaos: chaos, like all parts of life, provides us an opportunity to learn and evolve and do the chaos better next time. Unfortunately, many of us just want to enjoy the end of the chaos and be thankful we survived. We regroup and brace for the next round. But in that regrouping there is also an opportunity to debrief and make the next round of chaos much less painful.
The Art of Delegation
It is not sustainable for us to “do it all.” We must become skilled at the art of delegation and letting in support if we want to have a meaningful place in the professional world. Open yourself up to delegation by challenging “your way” of doing things by examining a few reasons why delegation might be the secret ingredient for success.
Dreaded Projects
There are always those projects that we dread doing. We put them off and go out of our way to avoid doing them or ever thinking about them. I recently worked with a client who was tap dancing around her own version of a dreaded project and wanted to share the steps we worked through to de-escalate the dread.
“I Wish…”
How eliminating two simple words from your vocabulary can change your life.
