What It Takes to Thrive

Have you ever known someone who was very bright, talented, competent, and good at what they do, but they ended up falling short in some way and disappointing the people who depend on them?

There are many reasons smart talented people don’t reach their full potential or struggle to achieve their goals, or get desired results. We all experience similar situations and challenges. For some of us we struggle with difficult people, or confrontation, or dealing with negative events that can derail us or stifles our ability to perform. We end disappointing ourselves, our stakeholders and the people who depend on us. I’ve observed three pitfalls that contribute to such outcomes and five common limitations that lead to those pitfalls.

The three pitfalls are described below. If any of these resonate for you then download the PDF and assess which of the five limitations are affecting your ability to perform at a higher level.

The 5 Performance Limitations

Performance Ceiling

You keep finding yourself hitting a performance ceiling that is much lower than your abilities would suggest. For whatever reason you can seem to get past this ceiling. It’s not for the want of trying or ability.

The truth is that there are skills and abilities needed that you are unable to bring to bear when needed. One or more of the five factors are inviolved.

Obstacles & Roadblocks

We all face obstacles and roadblocks. In the normal course of events the majority don’t pose a problems for you. There are those special few that you avoid, don’t want to deal with or you’re too uncomfortable with doing what you know needs to be done.

The truth is that you are well capable to handling these situations. One or more of the five limitations is at play and by understanding and developing your capabilities in these areas you will tackle them head on.

Had it! …Then Lost It

In this scenario the peak of your career or business has past and you’re trying to return to it. But, no matter what you do, you can’t. Or, you can’t hold on to it for too long.

Sustainable success requires a set of capabilities that are under-developed. One of more of the five limitations is at play. They are the source of you inability to create sustained success.

The Path To Thriving Is Simple

Each of the pitfalls represent a different situation whose demands end up being beyond what we are capable of dealing with, or are too uncomfortable for us, at that time. More specifically, one or more of the five limitations is at play.

I work with clients to address these limitations and in the course of doing so they are able to a) learn and develop the needed capabilities so that you’ll have greater peace of mind when facing any challenging situation, b) boost your reputation as high performer and c) have a better ability to create the time you need to focus on what’s really important to you.
