“I am going to stay out of my own way today, I am going to keep my Ego in check, and I am going to fight The Resistance every step of the way. “
This is my morning mantra. You might have even noticed it on FB and LI if you follow me there. These are all references from books that I have read lately and have resonated with me. Staying out of my own way is from The Big Leap by Gay Hendricks, Keep my Ego in check is from Ryan Holiday’s book Ego is the Enemy, and The Resistance is from Steven Pressfield’s book The War of Art.
I mention the books because I think that you would get a lot out of reading them as I did. I also mention them as a bit of insight into who I am and what is important to me in my work and life. I just don’t guide others through their journey’s I, too, am guided through mine.
In helping myself, I can be a better coach, guide, mentor however you might see me.
As I so lightheartedly respond when people ask me what I do, I tell them, I am what Yoda is to Luk
