A key component part of Adaptability is being able to spot a shifting context… Unfortunately in a world full of stress, this ability is severely compromised… A few thoughts on recognising when you may need to adapt… declanoconnell.net/the-dead-horse…

Look out for the patterns that repeat when it comes to the problems we experience Can we get curious as to what needs to be present for your problem to exist? What can we change and how can we adapt our perspective and our method of solving them? #adaptability #performance

This morning’s thought comes from famed mythologist Joseph Campbell. He advocates for adopting an explorer’s mindset and to step into the unknown with curiosity rather than fear. Playful curiosity with the way we think and behave may result in new opportunities on our horizon…

Monday’s quote from Steve Jobs asks us to be curious about picking up the signals as to when you might need to change gears. Despite the positive intent that lies behind our actions, we can sometimes overplay our strengths When might driving and demanding become blunt? #adapt

Monday’s thought of the day challenges us to invite confusion into our lives on occasion, particularly in relation to strongly held beliefs about how the world works and how we operate in it. This ‘desirable discomfort’can sometimes have disproportionate impact on performance

As we kick off another Monday it can be tempting to get sucked into dealing with the problems facing us for the week ahead. It may be worth taking some time out to really get curious as to what the problem you are actually trying to solve is before jumping into solutioneering
