Awareness is to the ELP what maintenance is to the plane. An ELP defines and controls their environment to produce at a high level. Their environment does not define and control an ELP. That seems so simple but think about it. How easy is it to let the negative people and and a stagnant environment dictate how we execute? I personally have been on a mission to delete what I call "negative, stagnant energy" for the last year and a half. I was made aware of this phrase “negative, stagnant energy” when I read the book “The Life Changing Magic of Tidying Up” by Marie Kondo. Negative, stagnant energy, per Feng Shui, is caused by clutter within your environment. Operating with clutter makes it incredibly difficult to execute on a consistent basis.
