Do you use your acceleration lane?

Do you also get upset about drivers who do not accelerate on the acceleration lane of the highway? It happens from time to time and it is irritating and even dangerous.

Well, the same behavior is exhibited by many leaders when it comes to acceleration in business. By this I mean, of course, picking up full speed at the beginning of the year, but also accelerating strongly when implementing any strategies, launching initiatives, personal development and so on.

From my experience, generating high momentum quickly is one of the most important success factors in life as well as in business.

As success guru Tony Robbins so beautifully puts it, "Make a clear decision, establish the powerful why, and then take MASSIVE action immediately!"

Here are three key barriers that often keep us from accelerating:

1. Contentment. After all, I keep emphasizing that high satisfaction is not a good condition for outstanding success. Contentment makes you sluggish. Everyone knows this about themselves. What we need instead is dissatisfaction and an appetite for something else, for more, for something new.
2. Fear. We all have fears all the time (but we are not always aware of them). To be afraid is normal. But if we want to make progress, we have to learn how to deal with these fears. No one, no matter how successful, says that they have no fears. On the contrary. But they have become accustomed to dealing with them and taking action in spite of their fears.
3. Ignorance. A not uncommon reason that we do not move forward quickly is a lack of knowledge about how best to do so. The good news is that knowledge itself is readily available about almost everything today. What's often missing is how to put it into context. That's where you, as the leader, come in. That's your job.
