You Can Do It YOUR Way!

I've just returned from a five day trip where I spent time consulting with a rapidly growing and highly successful team. They are enormously talented, high-minded, and committed to a culture of teamwork, trust, and collaboration. 
Sunday I was included in a team building exercise - axe throwing - and it was a new experience for me. I'm not gonna lie, I was a bit intimidated and downright scared, imagining myself dodging flying weapons and worse, failing to make contact with the board!
Look closely at the picture. I made contact and I scored three points - woo hoo! -  but notice I did it with the handle, not the blade! Apparently this was a first and in that moment I thought "well of course it happened like this - it's the story of my life."
​I've always been the woman who says "judge me by my results, not my methods", much to the aggravation of the bosses, managers, and leaders I have reported to over the years.  I have always found pride in accomplishing my goals differently than others do. Why is there so much emphasis placed on doing things the "right" way? Who's in charge of your business anyway?

I sold a lot of real estate when I got started in the business and the truth is I did it without ever making cold calls, knocking on doors, or sitting floor time for my broker. In fact, I was largely ignored and ran on instinct and intuition, choosing to do what felt good and comfortable to me. However, my feet did hit the floor each morning with intention and here's what I learned: you'll never be happy - even if you make a lot of money - doing the stuff that you hate. You simply need to engage in a number of activities to discover where your time and efforts are best spent. Once you do, be all in!
I have carried this belief into my role as a coach and consultant. You possess your own magic, secret sauce, and value proposition, and I believe it's my job to help you discover where your strengths lie. Mediocrity and the same old, same old doesn't create significance and doesn't set you apart. Be you, Boo! Our industry and your market needs what you've been divinely designed to provide!
