For me, a good team has one task above all: helping people unfold their own potential as fully as possible. But that takes real powers of observation, concentration and the ability to genuinely think your way into the other person’s perspective. And this is exactly the sticking point: you can only do that if you’re at peace with yourself. If you’re constantly wrestling with your own unresolved issues, your fears or your own lack of direction, you simply have no mental capacity left to actively listen to others or to really engage with them. Only once I’ve worked out for myself who I am and where I want to go does the space open up to truly take other people with me on a shared journey.
What do you take away from this thought?
Thank you. Every answer fits – take it with you into your day. Would you like to share something yourself?
