Exceptional means "exceptional in character, amount, extent, degree, noteworthy, remarkable, very unusual, special, unexpected, or strange..."
Ah...what?
That's DEFINITELY not the Brendon Burchard, Daniel Goleman, Brene Brown, Louise Hay, Dale Carnegie, David Burns M.D., Simon Sinek, Pat Lencioni or Carol Dweck energy that inspired me to get into the business of conflict resolution and leadership, team and business coaching and consulting.
And if you don't know who these people are...
Give yourself a gift --- buy some of their books and go on a reading binge over the holidays!
What I'm getting at here is that leading and living an extraordinary life starts with deciding to be extraordinary...extraordinary is far more than mere words on a page, a title, a degree, status or wealth.
I believe in being extraordinary.... and so few people decide to live and lead extraordinary lives (in all areas) and demand extraordinary from themselves... because it requires:
✅ confronting your current world differently - stop going through the motions of comfort
✅ showing up as the best version of you
✅ train brains to go beyond default biases, negative chatter, distraction and noise that keeps coming up in our heads over and over again and choose better thoughts
✅ be more purposeful and raise levels of intention.
✅ push beyond what's easy, fun, or fast -quick fixes or your strengths; choose courage over comfort
✅ develop habits, strategies and ways of doing things outside the ordinary that lead to extraordinary.
What's the next level for you | your teams | your business | your relationships | your life?
Do you want to become extraordinary over the long term or continue to go through the motions, putting out fires?
Let's look at the facts...
Living and leading yourself and others 'extraordinarily' is needed now more than ever!
DDI's 2023 Global Leadership Forecast - found that back in 2020, burnout among leaders was 60%. This has grown by 12% into 2023, with 72% of leaders admitting they feel "used up" at the end of the day.
What's more, leaders are also worried about burnout within their teams.
However, the study revealed that only 15% of leaders feel prepared to prevent employee burnout
There is an ever-rising premium on human well-being, success, relationships, and strategic thinking if you do not decide to be an extraordinary leader (team, business, etc.) and live an extraordinary life.
It requires training...
Understanding the foundational 'extraordinary' strategies that work…
Leveraging leadership tools to amplify leadership and life to 'extraordinary' …
And building a tool kit that supports you to excel (yes, you deserve it).
This is what it means to be part of the extraordinary life (in all areas) club!
