Stay In Your Three-Foot World
As a leader it’s easy to get distracted by any number of things and take your eye off the things that actually matter and have an impact in your business today.
In fact, many organizations fail to thrive and grow because the leader is constantly chasing new and different priorities, starting down one path and then shifting focus to something else without bringing the first initiative to completion.
Countless leaders drone on about their ability to multitask. But the reality is that multitasking leads to distraction.
And distraction leads to mission failure.
The U.S. Navy SEALs are fond of the saying, “stay in your three-foot world,” meaning focus on what is right in front of you at this very moment. Don’t focus on tomorrow. Stop harping on yesterday. Quit thinking about what might happen three weeks from now.
Master today. Deal with the situation at hand and overcome the challenges that are right in front of you. Focus on the intersection of what matters most and what you can control right now. That’s where you can generate success today. Worrying about anything else will simply distract you and decrease your chances for success.
How Do You Create Ownership Mentality?
Leaders in organizations that thrive and grow consistently do one thing differently than those that don’t.
They cultivate an ownership mentality in their people and teams.
But how do you do this?
Create an environment where your people want to take responsibility
Coach your people for the enhancement of their individual capabilities and gifts
Build a learning culture that celebrates growth and development even outside of “work” skills
Give people the space to test and try new things, and permission to fail
Transfer the “ownership” for the work to your people, not yourself
Celebrate others loudly and regularly
