Disappointment

Wednesday, March 18th, 2009

If you are a stand for people to participate in a project, yet despite your best efforts, no one is participating, don’t be disappointed at them. They did what they did, and you can’t do anything about it.

Instead, use your energy to look at how you were being in the matter:
How were you being such that your desired outcomes were not met?
How were you being such that everyone wasn’t in partnership with your goals?
How were you being such that people didn’t show up?
Did you really set them up to win?
Did you really empower them to complete the tasks?

If you’re pointing a finger at someone, you’re pointing three back at yourself.
