Don’t blame HR, or anyone for that matter for the holes in your bucket list! Today’s video is about an event that I keynoted recently, and I asked my audience what are the nails called, you know the nails that put holes in your bucket list? Usually, I get really common self-sabotaging answers like negativity, comparison to others, shame and the biggest one of all, fear. But, at an event recently someone yelled out “HR”! It was so funny, the audience collectively laughed at the answer! My message today is about focusing on what you can control, like your fear or negativity, and let go of things that are not in your control. I am reading a great book by my friend Carey Lohrenz, the US Navy’s first female F-14 Tomcat fighter pilot, by the name of Span of Control. It’s a great reminder, especially when you’re overwhelmed, to focus on what you can control and let go of the things you can’t. Don’t blame HR, or anyone, and focus on what you can control and see incremental movement to the front-row of your life.
Have a great Front-Row Friday!
Your head usher,
