Going it Alone

Going it Alone

As an Executive Coach, and as a person who always has a hand out to help someone, I’m amazed at how many people are in the midst of something stressful, or something scary, or something that isn’t going well. There are so many people questioning their confidence about what they’re doing that might not work or may even fail. All that “stuff” makes us less productive because it drains our energy, interrupts our sleep, and worries us daily. What we cannot do is go it alone. What we must do is reach out. Ask for help. Get into a mastermind. Call a mentor. Tell someone you’re struggling, or tired, or worrying. Ask for an idea. Ask for a hug. It’s really important to let someone know. People love to help. And when they do, our confidence returns. Our optimism returns. It makes them feel honored to have been able to help. And if you’re building relationships, that’ll do it for sure.
