Description

‘Life is beautiful or tragic and there are a myriad of things that we can't control, they happen. What we can control are the ways in which we respond' 

Rob is looking at key learning and the different ways we respond and move forward in the journey of career, work, life and leadership. 

He explores what you can control and how the way you respond is key in the way you experience life's journey. 

If you take on the information in this podcast it can make a significant difference in your life and in the lives of those you lead and inspire as leaders, managers and coaches. 

KEY TAKEAWAYS 

• Often the best learning comes from our personal learning experiences. Sometimes it's only when a person is impacted psychologically, neurologically and environmentally that real learning takes place. 
• It's the little things that cross your path a hundred times a day that can be learning experiences if we take the time to reflect and learn.  

Developing the learning habit  

• Getting into the mindset that drives the physicality is key to developing effective learning. 
• You must learn how to get into the right mindset so that you consistently act as you are capable of acting.       

• Your performance is more consistent if you have a stable foundation to work from – a success mindset. 

The easy ride 

• Sometimes in life we want an easy ride, things to be seamless and friction-free but life gets in the way and things can contrive to go in a different way. The response can be negative and the spiral begins. If you have a mindset of ‘Bring it on' the situation is immediately altered and you can step up. 

Control your actions 

• The only thing you can control are your own actions, if you can control your actions on a daily basis and are less concerned about the results you will feel better and life will be better. 

The next step 

• If you only concern yourself with the daily baby steps there will be a compound effect and you will gradually move forward. 
• The overwhelm can get to us and the whole thing can come tumbling down when you look down the road instead of at the next step. 

Pruning 

• Do you need to take a step back and cut away so you can focus on the key things that are important to you? 

• This is often uncomfortable and you can feel you are losing something but your energy will be focused on less and you will be able to achieve more. 

It isn't what it seems 

• In a world of instant information and social media, it is easy to reach the conclusion that what you are doing is not enough, that you are wasting your time but you must follow your heart and not believe other people's egos or the pictures they paint of instant success. 
• The long game is the way forward. 

BEST MOMENTS 

‘It's much better to learn from others experiences, its less expensive in time but sometimes the experience is the only way to learn' 

‘No matter how it appears what you see in the media is not always true' 

‘I've been guilty of trying to achieve too much in too many different arenas'
