I just love working with my clients.
I learn so much.
This week I want to share something I learned from Bob.
Bob is a leader who loves to share his wisdom and experience with his team and luckily for us, with me too.
Many years ago, Bob trained for the ironman competitions. His mentor at the time told him that if he missed a training session not to worry about it.
“It’s counter productive to try and catch it up, so the best thing is to move on to the next days training and do that well”, he said.
Bob adapted his training to his work.
He mentors his team and reminds them, that if they get behind in their schedule for any reason, not to go back to the unfinished task with a negative or tired mindset, but to move to the next task with a fresh mindset and energy.
If there is time, you can go back and catch up the task or continue tomorrow.
Unexpected things always happen at work and at home so whilst it’s good to have structure and a plan for your day, if you find yourself off course, keep going.
Do the next task.
Get your mind and energy back on the job.
It’s the quickest way to work effectively and efficiently.
Thank you Bob.
