Attitude, energy and awareness are all key ingredients of leading in difficult situations
- Attitude gives us the can do mindset to face up to our challenges
- Energy gives us the stamina to get through the challenge
- Awareness helps us to stay behaviourally aligned during the challenge
We need to feel Confident and in Control for full Commitment to overcome the Challenge
We need Physical, Emotional, Mental and Spiritual energies to get through the challenge
We need to make sure that our determination & discipline are not seen as stubbornness and rigidity
Understanding our Mental Toughness can help us to develop our attitude
Understanding the importance of personal energy can help us to perform
Understanding our behavioural preferences can help us to be self-aware
