From Coach Brawn:
It was a privilege to serve this team from Good Shepherd Community Clinic during our mastermind group around "Becoming a Person of Influence." I am so proud of how they took themselves on and purposefully engaged in this process of growth as they strive to live out their core values of love, respect, fight, resilience, and flexibility. I wanted to share some of their top takeaways with you, let me know which one stood out to you:
Now that I have identified fear as one of the main barriers of understanding others, I am overcoming it. “Fear, you will not own me”
I learned to see and understand others from their perspective instead of just jumping to judgement.
By learning to ask and gain permission before giving advice, it has strengthened my relationships and created more respect.
I have been empowered to stay positive and maintain a strong attitude toward the challenges I face. This growth stuff is hard, however, the outcomes are absolutely worth it.
I learned that I can lead authentically in my strengths and gifts.
I will continue to work on various areas of my influence to have a positive impact on others, with the hope that it will have a domino effect and the impact will last generations.
When I empower people, it has a multiplication effect.
My attitude toward others is one of the most important choices I will make. If my thinking is positive, I can make a positive impact on their lives.
I realized that I have a choice in every situation. I can either get mad and react, or I can be positive and respond.
I learned I can be positive and still hold good boundaries.
My takeaway is to listen as I would like to be listened to. Most people can hear, but few are capable of listening.
If I treat my people as if they are the most important person in the world, I will communicate that they are somebody to me.
I now understand how hungry everybody is for appreciation and recognition.
I can carry my own weather with me.
Thank you to this amazing group for continuing to trust me to facilitate their growth and allowing me to be a part of their mission, “Empowering Each Other, Inspiring Change, and Building Healthy People!"
