There’s no other choice!” “I can’t screw up! People will think less of me!” “If I’m not perfect, I’ve failed!” Perfection is highly sought after, held as the ultimate standard, and comes with a steep price! What happens though when we aren’t perfect? We call ourselves names, we beat ourselves up, and we are harder on ourselves than ever before!

It’s often due to the feeling that we can’t say “No;” we don’t want to come across as uncooperative, unwilling, and insubordinate. This leads to being frustrated, a lack of work-life balance, and resentment. However, there is a way out from underneath all of this and, to say “No.” A fundamental question to help us be able to say “No” is asking ourselves what is prompting the feeling that we need say “No?” Once we’ve done this, it becomes much easier to actua...2022-04-2217 minThe Resilient Mind Podcast with Andrew and SteveThe Resilient Mind Podcast with Andrew and SteveEpisode 37 - We Do NOT Have to Suffer In Silence With Amber Kivett“Suffer in silence!”Have you ever heard this phrase, been told it, or even without prompt keep to yourself and don’t express the struggles you have?

It’s a necessary part of mastering ourselves and our relationships, especially for those of us who are leaders or are inspiring to be leaders. So, the question is how, do we become more intelligently and, how do I help others do the same? At the heart of this is us; ourselves.

Sound familiar? Poor management is one of the number one reasons employees leave their jobs, and has been for years. So, why does this issue still persist? Simply put, it’s because we, as organizations, put more stock into managers than we do employees and have a hard time taking a good hard look at our managers.

We want to succeed, positively impact our organization, and reach the next level in our careers. Leading in accordance with what our organization expects plays a crucial role in doing so. To understand this more, we must first understand our organization’s culture. Is it familial, is it dictatorial, or is it cut-throat?

We may never be comfortable dealing with poor performers, and that’s OKAY! The trick is to become as comfortable as we can be and embrace that we may never be 100% comfortable with this.

I can’t be friends with them.” and 2) the tricky “I’m too friendly with them and it makes giving them feedback too hard.” The latter of the two options above tends to cause leaders to believe that it’s best not to be friends with those we lead, propagating the belief that we can’t be friends with those we lead anyways.

It’s who you are and is to be embraced!If our natural reaction is non-serving, we can either let it consume us or counteract it and choose how we want to respond.
