Get “But” Out of Your Team’s Vocabulary
A phenomenon that most everyone is aware of few people talk about is that we all have an inner Imposter. A part of us that fears that if people really knew the truth about us, we’d be found out. Join Cheri and her guest Nina East as they explore how to overcome the Imposter within.
As I wrote in my last post, I believe there are five primary “buts” that hold people back.
Wait . . . I should say that more accurately: There are five primary “buts” people use as excuses to hold themselves back.
This newsletter is about the #2 “But” . . . I don’t have enough money.
Most things take money . . . or at least we think they do. And one thing I hear universally from clients and friends and even myself is “I don’t have enough.”
When I hear this excuse, my first question is: “How much do you need?” or “How much will it take to do _______?” When I ask clients this question they typically say, “Well I’m not sure, but I know it’s more than I have.” Read More→
Not everyone reading this article will understand what it is about. But those of you who do, I hope you find it helpful.
There is a sub-set of humans who expect they will not get what they need. Therefore they are always prepared to take less. Given the chance, they will most likely VOLUNTEER to take less. Their thought is “Well, something is better than nothing.”
I confess . . . at times, I have been one of these people. Looking back over my life I can see times where I was willing to take crumbs when I really wanted the whole cookie. I had the belief if I smushed enough crumbs together I would form a cookie on my own. For reasons that arent really clear to me, I formed a habit of being okay with getting/having/doing less than I wanted. Notice I said “being okay.” Read More→

I make mistakes.
I’m human.
I make lots of mistakes when I write.
But who really cares?
Apparently a lot of people, I’ve come to learn.
Ever since I ‘ve been writing newsletters, articles, blog posts and miscellaneous marketing materials, I’ve been getting feedback. Friends and strangers alike have gone out of their way to tell me I misused a colon or forgot an apostrophe or misspelled a word. Has this ever happened to you?
My original reaction was mortification. You see, one of my biggest “buts” about my writing and the fear that keeps me from “putting my stuff out there” is the fear I am not a particularly good writer – not my ideas as much as the “rules” of writing. I have a fear that I will make blatant and sophomoric mistakes and look stupid.
Somewhere along the way I must have decided doing my work and most likely not doing it perfectly was a risk I was willing to take.
And then came the emails and the phone calls. Read More→
I debuted a new talk to the NC/SC Association of General Contractors Heavy Highway Division Conference (what a mouth full!) And what a terrific bunch of folks. Here’s what I shared with them.
There’s a lot of negative thinkin’ going on in our culture. Wouldn’t you agree? ”The economy is bad, times are tough, jobs are few,” blah blah blah.
These kinds of thoughts are all around is.
Some would say we are experiencing a negative reality now because we thought we would. In other words, our reality is a result of the thoughts we had in our past.
If that is true, then we must cultivate a mindsets that supports where we want to be, not where we are!
Take a listen. I’ve finally tackled one of my big ole buts and started my Blog Radio Show.
