When Your Strengths Hold You Back

The Winning Strategies That Got You Here

Your greatest strengths can hold you back.

Early in life you’re rewarded for certain ways of being.
They become “winning strategies.”

Like:

Always have the answers.
Do it all yourself.
Be perfect.
Stay liked.

Your young brain concludes:
These strategies work.
Let’s find more ways to use them.

Fast forward.
Today you’re a founder.
And you’re still using them.

Sometimes they work well.
But sometimes they don’t:

• Not delegating
• Beating yourself up
• Not hiring A Players
• Avoiding uncomfortable conversations

Upgrade the Way You Lead

Start noticing the patterns:

Are you reacting vs. responding?
Are you getting results you don’t want?
Are you not getting results you do want?

Notice the collateral damage:

• Wasted time
• Depleted health
• Ruined relationships

What if your success so far has been in spite of your winning strategies?
Not because of them.

Don’t abandon your winning strategies.
Just be thoughtful how and when you use them.

Start asking yourself, “What approach will create the results I want?”
