Are You Suffering From Career Insanity?
It’s certainly a trait of mine to do the same thing again and again and expect a different outcome!
I proved this only today. When in training for a sponsored swim I actually needed my chiropractor to point out that with a back injury, if I did the same stroke over and over, I would cause myself pain. I kept doing this anyway! Try alternating back stroke and breast stroke and ta-da. 50 lengths, non-stop and no pain!
So how does this apply to a professional world? The swim stroke I tried was new to me, and that was discomfiting. When we try a new thing in our career it is the same. This we resort to the insane behaviour of doing the familiar-thing that is actually causing the problem.
Would you like to be able to identify your familiar-thing and quit creating the problem? It won’t change ‘you’ but it might just change your opportunities…
