Have you ever been more comfortable telling your coach or a stranger for that matter, about a conversation you should have or you are avoiding all together instead of actually having that conversation with the person or persons that you need to?
If so, you aren't alone. I hear this ALL the time. What we should be saying is being sad to the wrong person...when I am coaching someone and they are telling me about the lack of accountability, the missed timelines, the frustrations they are having with another person and I ask them if they have talked to that person or that team - more often than not, the answer is "NO - I haven't said anything" - immediately I ask why? The reasons of fear, or just plain excuses come flying out their mouths...today I am asking you to stop, just stop - have those conversations, don't avoid them. Avoidance makes things even worse - every - single - time.
Todays podcast I bring up this very topic and give you some tips to get going.
You CAN do this...just take the steps to talk to people. Avoidance is never a good plan or outcome.
