Podcasts about Hesitation

Smirks emerge quite quickly when you mention “role model” and “leaders” in the same breath.  Most peoples' experiences with leaders as role models have been that they encompass the “what not do as a leader” variety.  Hanmen Kyoshi (反面教師) or teacher by negative example, as we have noted in Japanese.  What are some of the things we should be focused on in our quest to become a real role model for our teams? We can break the role model aspect into four major areas: Self-Aware; Accountability; Others-Focused and Strategic.  Within these four categories, there are eleven sub-categories on which we are going to focus today.  Do a mental audit on yourself and see how many boxes you can check, acknowledging that you are doing a good job. 1.    Self-Aware covers a number of sub-categories: “Self-Directed”. Leaders have to give others direction, so they must be independent types who don't have to rely on others to know what to do.  They have to be “Self-Regulated” which is a fancy pants way of saying they need strong personal discipline.  The leader has to decide what needs to be done and then marshals everything needed to get the job done.  This effort has to be sustained over time and that is where the self-discipline aspect kicks in. “Develop Self” talks about taking 100% responsibility for one's own career.  Depending on others, or the company in general, to take care of your career is folly.  We need to represent value to an employer, because if we don't, then we will be replaced by someone who does.  The tricky thing about business is they keep moving the goalposts.  What was required when you started and what is required today may be quite different. Scarily different. I see so many senior leaders and friends sacked by the organisation, despite many years of loyal and successful service.  A new CEO arrives, a merger takes place or a new direction for the firm is set and the next thing you know, you are out.  If you have been pursuing your own personal growth, then there is a safety factor involved there to enable you to weather the storms.  If you have just been working hard, which is admirable, you are left tired and then on the street. “Confident” is a vague term, really.  What actually defines being “confident”.  We can recognise it more easily than we can articulate it.  A leader who has confidence speaks in a certain way, with gravitas, with a certain finality.  Hesitation never arises and the body language backs up the confident words. 2.    Accountability is another area with sub-categories: “Competent” describes our capability to understand the business and do the work.  Most people rise through the ranks, so they have done the jobs their staff are doing, so they know the content well.  Changing jobs and entering as a mid-career hire can sometimes make the competence piece a challenge, though.  We have to be a fast learner to build credibility. “Honesty and Integrity” are both problem sub-categories.  Honesty is easier to gauge than integrity.  We can see if you are honest and can measure it.  However, while everyone says how important integrity is, defining it is a challenging task.  Saying and doing what you say is a fundamental basis of demonstrating integrity, as is standing for higher ideals.  How do you actually behave when no one is watching?  3.    Others-Focused is a big sub-category and so not all aspects can be covered here, but we will focus on some key areas: “Inspiring” is in the eyes of the beholder, so as the boss, you have to create the environment where everyone can be inspired.  We need to uncover what the range of views on the subject are amongst the troops, to get an idea of how we need to appeal to everyone's individual needs.  This means making time to talk to people, rather than just barking out leader commands all day long. “Develops Others” means going beyond the managerial functions of everything done on time, to spec and to budget.  We have looked at this earlier. It means putting time into coaching staff and giving them stretch tasks through delegation.  Most people stay functionally at the manager level and never quite level up sufficiently to become a true leader.  Whose fault is that? I would argue it is their boss who has failed them.  The leader's job is to create other leaders, and every organisation is crying out for good leaders. “Positively Influences Others” is an all weather skill for leaders. Our grumpy mood, short temper, irritability can bring down the motivation of the team.  Also, speaking ill of other divisions or sections to knit our own team together, a weak leader favourite, makes the team doubt the robustness of the organisation. “Effectively Communicates” sounds reasonable, except most leaders are not very good at speaking in public.  They do not generate confidence in what they are saying by the unprofessional way in which they are saying it.  The solution is simplicity itself: we need to get the training to master this attribute. 4.  The last category we will cover here is Strategic. We will deal with just one sub-category “Uses Authority Appropriately”.  We are talking about using our position power for good, rather than self-aggrandisement.  Bossing people around to boost our own fragile ego and having the need for power over others is totally sad.  We are given power to help our people do better - that is the only reason.  So how was your self-audit?  We now have a framework to place around the term “role model” and we know where we have more work to do.  Always a good thing for a leader.

Our mindset is key to success in any activity, whether it's sports, business, or public speaking. Yet, many of us forget this vital aspect when preparing for presentations. We dive straight into the content, logistics, and technicalities without pausing to ensure we have the right mental attitude. Since a presentation puts both our personal and professional brand on display, it's important to get this right. Confidence is crucial for any presenter, especially when dealing with nervousness. Even if we're feeling uncertain or anxious, we must hide that from the audience. Hesitation can destroy the effectiveness of our message. Too often, we rely on our content, thinking that it will make up for poor presentation skills. However, the truth is, no matter how brilliant the information, a lack of delivery can cause the audience to tune out, especially in today's world of constant digital distractions. To compete with distractions like social media, we need to deliver our message confidently and in a way that captures attention. It's not just about having great content but also delivering it with authority. This means knowing your material well enough to speak confidently without reading off notes. Having practiced the delivery ensures you can engage with the audience and keep them focused. Preparing for a presentation is not just about creating slides but rehearsing the talk itself. In the weeks leading up to the talk, visualize your success and rehearse mentally. Picture yourself speaking confidently, engaging the audience, and controlling the room. When you've practiced thoroughly, you know the flow, timing, and emphasis, making the experience much more enjoyable and impactful.

Sally's question: “What do you do when the parent tells you they don't want their child to play with aggressive toys or engage in aggressive play, like war play?” Lisa explores the importance of understanding the parent's concerns and how to guide the conversation to help them see how aggressive play can be therapeutic and necessary for the child's emotional expression and processing. Carolyn's question: “How do you respond when a child says ‘I love you' or asks if you'll move in with them or be their mother?” Lisa offers valuable advice on how to respond authentically to these deeply emotional moments, explaining how to navigate the child's need for connection while maintaining professional boundaries and emotional safety. Join Lisa for a candid and thought-provoking conversation, as she offers practical strategies to help you stay grounded and authentic when facing common and challenging scenarios in the playroom.

Neil shares insights from his 26 years in the tutoring business, emphasising the importance of finding the right environment for personal and professional growth. Drawing from a recent experience at a corporate event that felt misaligned with his values, Neil discusses the common struggle of staying in situations that no longer serve us due to a fear of change and the desire for consistency. He highlights how this resistance can hinder progress, both for individuals and their students, and encourages listeners to seek out communities that challenge them to grow. KEY TAKEAWAYS Finding Your Tribe: It's essential to surround yourself with people who align with your values and aspirations. If you feel out of place in a particular environment, it may be time to seek a community that better supports your growth. Resistance to Change: Humans often resist change due to a desire for consistency in their identity. This can lead to staying in unfulfilling jobs or relationships, as well as self-sabotage when trying to pursue new opportunities. Self-Sabotage in Learning: Students may struggle to progress because they cling to their existing identity, which can hinder their ability to embrace new skills or knowledge. This resistance can manifest as excuses or a lack of practice. Comfort vs. Growth: Staying in a comfortable state may feel safe, but it can prevent personal and professional growth. Embracing challenges and stepping out of your comfort zone can lead to more fulfilling experiences. Taking Action: It's important to act boldly and decisively when pursuing goals. Hesitation and tiptoeing can lead to missed opportunities, so finding the courage to move forward is crucial for success. BEST MOMENTS "If you're the smartest person in the room, you're in the wrong room." "Staying the same is a risk aversion or amelioration survival strategy. Keeps you safe where you are." "When we grow and develop, we take away their excuses and their alibis." "If you find yourself in the wrong room, make me a promise and get out as quickly as possible." "Life is like that. Go find a better room."

Opportunity got an Expiration Date, straight like that. It don't wait on your Feelings, your Fear, or your Excuses. In the Market, you miss the entry, you miss the wealth. That same setup you watched last month? Gone. That IPO you hesitated on? Up 300%, and now you watching from the sidelines mad at the game, when really... you fumbled the play. But let's take it deeper—GOD ain't stingy with Blessings. HE'll present the open door, the right connection, the million-dollar idea—but He won't force you to walk through it. Faith without execution is just another form of Fear. You praying for harvest, but scared to plant the seed. That's not faith, that's fantasy. Hesitation is expensive. Every time you doubt yourself, you paying compound interest on procrastination. And the truth is, the market rewards those who move with wisdom and courage. Sometimes it's not about knowing every detail—it's about trusting your preparation and pulling the trigger before the bell rings and your moment passes. Spiritually, you gotta discern when the season is ripe. There's a divine timing to success, but that clock don't run forever. If GOD gave you the vision, don't let comfort cancel your calling. Opportunities expire—but the regret of missing ‘em? That lingers way longer. THE EXPIRATION OF OPPORTUNITY | Wallstreet Trapper (Episode 139) Trappin Tuesday's

In this episode of The Christ Cycle, Maurice Harker explores two critical phases of Christ's journey: Reluctance and Return. Even Christ, in His perfect divinity, experienced a moment of hesitation in the Garden of Gethsemane, recognizing the immense suffering ahead. Yet, He submitted to the will of the Father and moved forward with unwavering commitment.We'll examine how reluctance plays a role in our own lives—how feelings of hesitation, fear, and self-doubt can either paralyze us or refine our purpose. We'll discuss how Christ's example teaches us to acknowledge vulnerability, seek divine guidance, and ultimately embrace the path ahead.In the Return phase, we see how Christ re-engaged with His mission, not out of obligation, but from a place of renewed strength and purpose. By understanding this cycle, we can learn to overcome hesitation and recommit to our own divine purpose with greater faith, clarity, and resolve.Want to read the book: ⁠https://bit.ly/TheChristCycleAudioBook

Hesitation is often more painful than failure itself. The longer we wait, the heavier the weight of inaction becomes—the agony of knowing more is required but refusing to act. That self-imposed purgatory is its own kind of suffering, a slow erosion of potential.But what if you stepped forward instead? What if you embraced the fall, knowing it's the only way to rise? Action is the antidote to doubt, the bridge between where you are and where you want to be. The moment you decide to move, you reclaim your power. The world belongs to those who dare.More from Eddie Pinero:Monday Motivation Newsletter: https://www.eddiepinero.com/newsletterInstagram - @your_world_within and @IamEddiePineroTikTok - your_world_withinFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/YourworldwithinTwitter - https://www.twitter.com/IamEddiePineroBusiness Inquiries - http://www.yourworldwithin.com/contact#liveinspired #yourworldwithin #motivation

[01:15] This is the good and the bad of putting a lot of content out into the marketplace. [02:00] I don't believe in chasing clients or convincing them that they're wrong. [03:01] I'm suggesting you set yourself up to be a resource for them, give them options, and let them decide what they want to do. [04:02] Don't be afraid of people using your free resources. Put fantastic content out into the world. [05:02] You can use language to imply that there's more which they can get by signing up to your program. "When things change, you're welcome to reach out, and I'll be happy to work with you." [06:09] Continue to invite people to work with you. You don't have to chase them. [07:03] If you put an offer in front of them and they're still only interested in the free resources check in and ask if there's anything that would be a right next step like a starter package. [09:49] Timing is always an issue. It's one of those things you don't control. Some people need to reach a certain level of uncomfortableness before they decide to make changes. [11:34] Be flexible. Don't be attached to someone taking action. [12:13] Words can influence people but ultimately they have to decide for themselves. [13:18] In one of my master classes I teach that it's okay to give some of your secret sauce away. If someone's blown away by the free stuff you give them, they're going to wonder what else you have. [14:09] You need to put enough out there to entice people to take the next step. [15:01] Create a resource page and make it easy for people to consume your content. The convincer strategy is something that prospects decide for themselves. [17:08] Micro touches and how many times someone needs to be exposed before taking action.  [18:09] You want to create a trifecta with the right time, the right place, and the right offer. [19:11] An inspiring story about a client who started out very small, but led to coaching.    For more actionable sales tips, download the FREE Closing The Sale Ebook.   Find Nikki: Nikki Rausch nikki@yoursalesmaven.com Facebook | Twitter | LinkedIn | Instagram Sales Maven Society Work With Nikki Discussion To download free Resources from Nikki: www.yoursalesmaven.com/maven

Hesitation drains energy. The longer you wait, the harder it gets. Most people don't struggle because they lack ability. They struggle because they delay decisions. The hesitation, the second-guessing, the back-and-forth all eat away at confidence.

Hesitation is stealing your progress. You have the goals, you know what needs to be done, but when it's time to take action, something holds you back. Not because you're lazy.

Send us a textWhy is Europe still hesitant to step up its military game? Join me, Chad Law, on the Last Gay Conservative Podcast as we scrutinize the European Union's lackluster response to the Ukraine conflict. With a critical eye, I examine the reluctance of European leaders like Emmanuel Macron, who seem more comfortable discussing solutions than implementing them. We explore how Donald Trump's peace initiatives highlight a gap in leadership and why it's crucial for the U.S. to lead negotiations. Listen as I advocate for European nations to break free from their dependence on American security and take charge of their defense commitments.The European Union's indecisive role in fostering peace is unraveling under the spotlight. I question NATO's effectiveness and call out the EU's internal discord which seems to stall proactive solutions for Ukraine. By drawing parallels to sales and marketing dynamics, I reveal how Poland and the Baltic states are feeling the heat, urging for increased defense budgets amid Russia's looming presence. The conversation sheds light on Europe's industrial potential being wasted when it could be redirected towards bolstering military capabilities.Shifting gears, the episode also takes a witty, yet piercing look at David Hogg's public persona, unraveling the controversies around his rise in the political arena. We discuss allegations of his family's government ties and poke fun at conspiracy theories that float around his identity. As we challenge the narrative around his activism and influence within the Democratic National Committee, prepare for an engaging ride filled with humor and critical insights. Don't miss out on this provocative episode from Newport Beach, where we connect with listeners through bold conservative perspectives.

The Deliberate Leaders Podcast challenges conventional thinking and inspires action.The episode addresses The Leadership Blind Spot around the concept that knowing and not doing is equivalent to not knowing at all.Many leaders pride themselves on being informed, but the information is useless without action.The Problem:•  Knowing doesn't mean anything without action.•  Leaders often know what they should do but fail to act.•  Example: Leaders know they need to delegate more but continue to hoard tasks.Knowing without doing leads to burnout.•  Many business owners know they should manage their finances but avoid it.•  Leaders know their team needs constructive feedback but avoid tough conversations.•  Many know personal growth is important but put off coaching and development.•  Hesitation to act stems from fear of failure, lack of accountability, and comfort in the status quo.•  Being unwilling to risk doing the wrong thing may mean you're already doing the wrong thing by staying still.Solutions:•  Start small: Choose one thing to act on this week.•  Find an accountability partner.•  Measure progress, not perfection: Celebrate action, even if the outcome isn't perfect."Clarity comes from engagement, not thought".Challenge:•  Identify something you know you should be doing but aren't.•  Write it down and commit to taking action.•  The only thing worse than not knowing is knowing and doing nothing.•  Your edge in business is doing better, not just knowing more.Call to Action:•  Share the episode with other leaders.•  Consider coaching to help close the gap between knowing and doingAbout the Host:Allison Dunn•  Host of the Deliberate Leaders Podcast•  Business Coach•  Founder of Deliberate DirectionsConnect:•  Website: Deliberate Directions•  Podcast: Deliberate Leaders PodcastReminder: Subscribe and leave a review to support the podcast!

Still your tongue, cat.
