What anyone can do well with a busy mind, they can do 10 times better with a clear mind.
Seems true, right?
Yet, so many of us in the world of work and business do the opposite. We fill our minds. We think 'hard'. We believe that in the depth of mental analysis comes the best answers. We think it's noble to worry. And on and on.
And we are mistaken.
We forget the blatant truth that the human mind works best when it's clear.
So, how do we get a clear mind and keep it clear?
Well, we've made up strategies, practices, and rituals. And they work. Sometimes. And sometimes they don't.
So we make up new strategies, better practices and rituals. Which work. Sometimes. And sometimes they don't.
And what's forgotten in all of this is the notion, that left to its own devices, the mind settles down. It clears itself.
It is in its nature to do so.
Innocently, we stir it up with thoughts that look like they have merit to think about. And innocently think that the external world, and our circumstances, cause our minds to fill up. A full, busy mind looks like it's caused by my targets, other people, my organisation's products and services, the economy, etc. etc.
And that's not how the mind works.
Having struggled to 'do a good job' for the first 20 years of my working life, the most recent 10 years have taught me something else. The results of helping others see this for themselves has had more of an impact than I could have imagined, on their performance, business results, wellbeing, enjoyment, inner peace... and more. Taking work teams, departments, and entire organisations through this understanding has been remarkable. Taking one-to-one coaching clients has had the same effect on all aspects of their lives. I wanted to share this here on LinkedIn today because I was inspired to do so.
What's possible for you, your team and your organisation with clear minds is beyond what you might think is possible today.
I'm filled up knowing this is on offer to everyone.
