The Rhythms of My Life
I was in a board meeting yesterday with a company planning a major commercial release of their product “at the end of summer”.

Lesson #5: Stay Focused
“I am a very focused person,” says Combs. “Right now I'm in a real, real strong creative zone. You know, musically I'm in that zone. Fashion, designer-wise, I'm in that zone. I'm in a zone right now. I'm like Jordan in the fourth right now, ladies and gentlemen.” Between all his business ventures, court battles, marathon runs and his family, if it weren’t for Combs’ ability to focus on one important thing at a time, he would have succumbed to the pressure long ago.

Your Selling Comfort Zone
You're probably in one now. You might not realise it and you're very unlikely to admit it, but the reality is you're very likely to be in your very own Comfort Zone. How can I say this? Especially when I don't know anything about you - your profession, interests or background. The answer is simple.

When you're working in your zone, you never look at a clock! Read this for tips to zoar in your zone!

Third Generation Leadership - Developing 3G Leaders (II)
G3 Leadership requires another element - it requires the ability to manage down those areas of the brain that are not helpful in leader-follower interactions while simultaneously managing up those areas of the brain that are helpful. I refer to these as "Red Zone" (not helpful) and "Blue Zone" (helpful). Where the leader has his or her brain's locus of control is critical because only G3 Leaders are able to engage everyone with whom they interact: a G2Leader can engage only some and a G1 Leader can engage only a few. As I indicated in my last article, the question is, of course, "How do we manage down the red zone and manage up the blue zone?"

What did you learn about yourself or your business last year? Did you manage to get out of your comfort zone or were you treading the same path? Setting little challenges can be a good way to expand your comfort zone.
Z is for being in the Zone
