“I can’t complain, there are people who suffer much more than I do”
“I desperately need a break, but I always appear like the strong guy in the team. It will destroy my reputation”
Just couple of examples extracted from past weeks conversations.
In a world still dominated by “either/or”, I invited those 2 people to explore the POWER OF AND. Fascinating conversations and mindset shift.
- You are strong. AND need a break.
- Others have it worse. AND your pain is valid.
- You are self-confident. AND at times you doubt.
- You are independant. AND need to rely on others.
- You are reliable. AND you make mistakes.
- You are a leader. AND sometimes you feel lost.
AND that is absolutely perfect !
Here is one of mines, after I experienced few people being surprised I said NO to hosting a pro-bono LEGO® Serious Play® workshop.
“There are things I am happy to do pro-bono and give time for. AND I have very clear boundaries”.
Your turn … What is your personal “POWER OF AND” motto? I’d love to hear it.
Be Brave. Embrace your dualities.
Love,
Delphine
