Life is amusing.
Suddenly, in the same week, two big projects popped up in my life.
- Project A is creating a new ski resort with a whole innovative customer experience.
- Project B is working to strengthen women in sales positions.
I love new adventures. I love challenges even more.
So when their team leaders came to me and asked me to join their advisory committee alongside brilliant experts, I said Yes, to both of them!
Now, to be transparent;
- Project A connects me to my passion of skiing, to my former student job as a ski trainer, and to the beautiful mountains where I grew up.
- Project B doesn’t trigger any particular excitement in me - on paper. I am not an expert in sales, and neither am I particularly attracted to gender issues and sorority dynamics.
Yet, a month later, I quit project A.
What happened?
The WHAT (about) is not enough.
Over the first month participating in those two projects, I experienced a one of a kind ultimate contrast!
Surprisingly, I was...
Regularly, my wonderful clients surface profound questions that sound like Shakespearean quandaries. Deep, existential thoughts punctuated with a desperate question mark.
I can feel their urgency to get my answer right away on the phone.
This morning, 8 am: How do I know how far I have to go to adapt myself to a certain situation?
Excellent question, isn’t it?
To adapt to others or not to adapt, that is the question.
It is always followed right away by another, more implicit one: Does it mean I am not flexible or agile enough if I don't do so?
Another great point.
These questions are not incidental, as they take place in our daily professional and personal dramas. I’m certain you’ve already asked them of yourself.
Actually, what is your current issue that makes you wonder if adapting and adjusting yourself is the required move? There must be one. There is always one.
Take a second and bring it now into your mind to make the most of what I’m about to share...
Where to go, Captain?
Do you know the fundamental truth that says you cannot get somewhere if you don’t know where you are heading?
Seneca said it way better: “If one does not know to which port one is sailing, no wind is favorable.” Sounds relevant, right? Well, let’s revisit that later on.
So here I am, facing a new challenge: Jumping in the “Online” game. Time to catch-up girl!
For more than ten years, I've been happily crafting tailored coaching solutions to enhance my clients' businesses and lives. It was working perfectly, all through word of mouth, so why rock the boat? The answer is simple: I wanted to extend my impact and serve more people.
Having a website and a social media presence might seem like a no-brainer when you have that intention. Nonetheless, if you are like me, I know how big a challenge this is—a new paradigm for your way of doing business.
What is your intention?
What new playgrounds would...
Grab your favorite coffee or tea (I'm a tea person, I know, nobody is perfect ;p), and enjoy that 3-5 minutes reading a new post about Achievement and Alignement every Sunday.
Get stimulated, questionned, guided, and inspired for the week coming
