Ability is your capability in certain areas.  Motivation determines what you do with your ability.  Attitude determines the quality of your outcomes when you use your ability and are motivated.

In my personal business coaching practice in The Woodlands and in Houston I have observed time and again the connection between these three areas and how they impact individual and team performance.

Ability is important.  It is a great place to start when looking at what you are capable of accomplishing.  But it is not everything.

Motivation, by itself, is not enough.  Motivation gets you going in using your ability, yet it doesn’t guaranty you are headed down the right path.

Attitude is what takes your ability and motivation and keeps it on track.  Attitude says that if the track your ability and motivation are taking you on is not working, that you will try something else.  With the right attitude, you are willing to make the necessary adjustments on your road to success.

Adjustments are not failures.  Adjustments are changes that are necessary to keep you relevant.  If you don’t adjust you fail.  You fail because you are becoming irrelevant.  You are in a race to the bottom.

In returning to attitude: the right attitude harnessed to your ability and motivation will position you to create the steam to drive your engine of performance that will move you from ordinary to extraordinary.

Self Improvement Tips for Success

All of us use our reasoning abilities to justify what we think and what we do.  We use our reasoning to solve problems and to embrace opportunities.  We use our reasoning in hundreds of areas.

Yet, when we are in relationships and we give our reasons for doing something and the other party questions or disagrees with our reasoning, things can become very heated.

In my personal business coaching practice in The Woodlands and Houston, I have clients who have the best systems, the best IT, the marketing, and they are profitable. Yet, and it will never be perfect, there are a number of hierarchical and peer relationships that are disjointed.  Disjointed relationships are a drain on productivity.  But since things are good for the bottom line, they are glossed over.  Then one day the tipping point is reached and there is an explosion.  An explosion that could have been prevented. And the explosion can be bad enough to halt productivity.

What can you do about it?  Once again, in the area of relationships, there are many answers.  But these answers are not necessarily solutions.  I am going to share with you something that I have seen work for my clients in my personal business coaching practice.  Does it always work?  Absolutely it does not.  But at the very least it does shine some light on a pathway to a solution.

When things get heated and boil over between people our first response when confronted is the following. Very often, in defense of our reasoning, we give the other person even more logical, reasons, as to why we are right.  This does only one thing.  It heightens the tension and anger.

Somehow, we think if we can outreason the other person that they will admit defeat and go along with us.  Most of the time it does not work that way.  To restore reason, if things are about to get heated remember this:  Love restores reason, not the other way around.

Show the other person love by seriously trying to understand what is at the root of their objections to your reasons.  When you do this, you are showing that you value them.  The initial response to love in the work environment is very often tepid at best.  But for those who embrace it, I have seen it turn bad relational situations around.

Tips on Self Improvement | Personal business coaching houston

Self-improvement is your own personal elevator. As you rise to the top you will have to let some people off. When you focus on self-improvement you are always in transition. As you rise, you must let go of those relationships that no longer serve you and the new person you are becoming.

If you don’t, you will end up feeling stuck which eventually robs you of energy and happiness.  Look at your relationships.  Ask yourself, “Who do they have me becoming?”  And then ask yourself, “Is this acceptable?”

If the answer is no, let that person off your relational elevator so you may continue your self-improvement and rise to greater heights. In your personal world, this is easier to do.  But if you take the same approach to self-improvement in the business world you will discover some benefits even though things are more structured, and you have less input into who you are going to be working with.

In my personal business coaching practice in The Woodlands and Houston, I have watched my clients rise on the relational elevator when they focus on their own self-improvement.

Interestingly, the problem a client has is never a lack of knowledge or expertise in what they are expected to do.  The challenge is always in the relationships with the people they must interact with and be part of a team.

In business, more often than not, you do not have a choice as to who is going to be part of your relational elevator.  But you do have a choice as to what to do about it.  You can either try to change them, which almost never works, or you can focus on your own self-improvement and go to work on yourself.

Very often this is all it takes.  But if it doesn’t work, at least you are better for the experience and better positioned to move forward because you chose to focus on your own self-improvement.

Holding on to what you cannot change is like wrestling with your shadow. It makes for a frustrating relationship with yourself. The shadow is visible, but you will be continually frustrated and unhappy because you cannot control or change it.

In your business and personal world, you must know when you are wrestling with your shadow. Your shadow is all the things you cannot control.

In my personal business coaching in The Woodlands and Houston, very often I have clients that are wrestling with shadows.  I have certainly wrestled with shadows.  My shadows can be doubt, indecision, and timidity to name a few.  They are valid as long as I wrestle with them.  The moment I let go, stop wrestling with them, they lose their power to distort the picture I have of myself and my world.

How do I let go?  First, what I am about to share does not always work.  But when you have a method for dealing with your shadows you start having confidence which brings a greater degree of happiness.  That alone puts me in a better place.

To get rid of my shadows, I journal.  I get deep inside myself to discover what is truly driving my fear, the fear that creates shadows.  My biggest challenge is to borrow trouble and turmoil in the future before it ever arrives.  One of the things I journal about is the present and all I have to be grateful for.  When I am grateful, I feel better, more at peace, and am willing, now that my foundation feels more solid, to overcome my doubts, indecisiveness, and timidity.

Overcoming your shadows is an inside job.  Be truthful with yourself.  It is the only place to start. Journaling helps me do that.

Some of the happiest moments in your life will come when you let go of wrestling with your shadows. Show the courage to let go.  How do you do that?

Face the sunlight.  Face what you are grateful for. When you do, you put the shadows behind you, in the past, and you are now positioned to grow.  And with your shadow behind you, you are positioned to improve your relationship with yourself and with others.

There is a song by musical group Alabama.  Its title is “I’m in a Hurry to Get Things Done”.  The song begins with the following:

I’m in a hurry to get things done

Oh, I rush and rush until life’s no fun

All I really gotta do is live and die

Even I’m in a hurry and don’t know why.

There is no doubt that we are in a hurry up world. Between emails, texts, phone calls, zoom calls, face to face meetings, work and just doing the basics of taking care of ourselves and others there is excessive strain.  What happens when the body and mind are subject to excessive strain?  The tension, the worry and the feeling that we must continue to run the race of life at a high-speed wear us out mentally, emotionally and physically.

Hurrying and running all the time has an adverse effect on your health. In my personal business coaching practice in Houston, I encounter the debilitating effect of always being in a hurry with several of my clients. One of the things we collaborate on is how they can slow down.

To an “on the go” businessperson, the phrase “slow down” is threatening and an implicit condemnation of how they are conducting their business and life.  What slow down is addressing is that one must take time to do the following, reflect, evaluate and then respond.  One must pause. The final component is that one must find adequate rest.

What is the cost of not taking a pause and of not getting adequate rest?  There will be more incorrect decisions which take greater time and energy to correct, weakening you further. And the cycle repeats and things get worse.  I once had a mentor who observed my hurry up mode and that I never slowed down.  He was an executive with a large national corporation.  I was reflecting on something that I was involved in not being done right which was going to cost me more money and time.  I had the money.  I did not have the time.

As he listened, he smiled.  When I finished, he asked if he could make an observation.  He said, “In your too busy life if you don’t have time to do it right the first time, when are you going to find time to do it right?”  That question stopped me in my tracks. It became clear about the mess I was creating.  Then he said this:  “To move forward in business and life you must slow down and get more things right the first time.  Only when you get things right the first time are you positioned to speed up.”  Slow down.  Get it right the first time.  You won’t be slowed down going back and correcting your mistakes.  Without having to correct your mistakes, now you can speed up.
