All-around leader series #1: 100 meter sprint!

from The Charlie Grimes Podcast · host Charles R Grimes

Today we start the decathlon of leadership!  Event number 1 is the 100 meter sprint. Three key lessons that we can learn from the 100 m sprint: Tune out the noise It demands focus Distraction is the enemy line up-- block out anything else, and focus. This often takes a routine-- Doing the same things in preparation - born out of habit, repetition, success Would often "practice starts" Stay in your lane: Disqualified if you ran out of your lane-- You need to know your role, and perform to your best ability in that role. Sometimes I need to ask myself, what is my role in this situation? Was it to just listen?  To act, to solve the problem- Acting out of our lane can get you into big trouble Don't look back: Never any use in looking back-- once the gun goes off, you're either sprinting or your not.
