I’ve been busy ramping up the TM Solutions Business & Leadership workshops and webinars. Here’s a couple of webinars coming up soon. I’ve provided links to FREE registration for readers of my blog. Yes, this is shameless self promotion. A girl’s got to make a living. Continue reading Upcoming Webinars – Free for Blog Readers (Updated 5/13) I know my posting has become pretty anemic with barely weekly kiddo reports and the occasional update on whether I happen to be running or not (I am now). One reason that I have posted less has to do with my efforts on the career front. So what’s the scoop? It doesn’t take a rocket genius to recognize that we often behave differently when we’re relaxed than we do when we’re under pressure. In fact, I’d bet most of us can reliably predict how our personality traits change between these two states of being. This is the follow up post to Defining a Long Term Plan and answers the other part of the question of how I stay motivated to train. Motivation is a funny beast that takes on a different forms for different people. An individual’s personality– their unique combination of drives, motives, preferences and avoidances– tell the story of what keeps them motivated. There’s no better tool than Human Patterns to measure these preferences and interests, so let’s use the tool to help explain what and why people are motivated. As of today, I’ve hung the shingle out to provide performance mentoring. Different than triathlon coaching, performance mentoring is about consistently high levels of personal performance across any life domain. Through PerforMentor, I can help you optimize your personal performance by leveraging your natural strengths and interests, creating a stable platform for success, and learning the skills to effectively transition and transform yourself. I haven’t said much about it lately, but I’m still plugging away at the performance mentoring project. I have a business name, a logo of sorts, a domain name secured and a content management system in place. Much of this is thanks to my husband. He’s a fantastic ideas guy. What is talent? It is frequently defined as genetic gifts leading to ease in developing high performance in a particular domain. Talented triathlete. Talented sales person. Do you buy it? We all think but we all don’t think the same way. Anyone with any exposure to other humans would have to agree with that statement. Surely. Wouldn’t it be nice if we could anticipate how someone we work with will approach a problem and figure out how to mirror their approach? That would be [...] About a month and a half ago I committed to writing about certain topics but thus far have only delivered on one of them. It’s time for another installment, so I’ll draw on a theme that’s been cropping up in my life on a regular basis recently. Some people call this synchronicity — the [...] There was a point during the Human Patterns certification course where we were going through Erik Erickson’s stages of psycho-social development (and the related aspects personality) when I saw a pattern that matched my experienced phases of involvement in multi-sport. Now that I’m going back over my poorly written notes and am relying on internet searches [...] |
