Imposter Syndrome: Fighting Through Self-Doubt

You might be aware of your impostor syndrome, but are you aware of the tools out there to help you fight against it? Ultimately, it comes down to your core beliefs, which are ingrained thoughts we have about ourselves as a result of different experiences that create our worldview. Essentially, your “core beliefs” completely change how you view and experience the world.

For example, someone who thinks the world is out to get them might experience even the slightest inconvenience as if they are being targeted. When you feel like the universe is working against you, it’s impossible to get into a mindset for success.

On the other hand, if you’re in a headspace that is ready to accept and overcome challenges, the world is really yours for the taking.

Try to assess your core beliefs by asking yourself the following questions:

  • What do I believe to be true about myself?
  • Do I rely on the approval of others for a sense of self-worth?
  • Am I worthy of love and acceptance as my authentic self?

Women in leadership roles have the power to change the workforce, and it all starts with a little mental exercise.

Registration is now open for the next 6-week Positive Intelligence® Mental Fitness Foundation program starting January 21, 2023. The program is based on Shirzad Chamine’s Positive Intelligence® work.

You will learn to use negative emotions as a helpful alert and then quickly shift to the positive region of the brain that has the calm, clarity, objectivity and creativity to handle life’s challenges more effectively.

For more information and to register: https://redworkscoaching.com/services/executive-coaching/positive-intelligence-increasing-your-mental-fitness/6-week-mental-fitness-foundation-program/

Your organization may be eligible for up to two-thirds of the training cost through the Canada Job Grant program.

Master Your Mind, Master Your Life

Imagine what would be possible if you could choose:

  • to not stress out over what you can’t control
  • push away self-doubts
  • recover from disappointments immediately and
  • spend little time in anger, regret, or blame.

This is absolutely possible with mental fitness training. In as little as 10 seconds, you can:

1. Develop greater mastery over your own mind
2. Quiet the negative and
3. Activate the positive region of your brain.

In fact, MRI research found that within 6-8 weeks of mental fitness training the brain’s grey matter:

  • increased in the Sage PQ brain region and
  • decreased in the Saboteur “survival brain” region

Enroll in the Positive Intelligence®: Mental Fitness Foundation Program.

The next program begins May 28.

Leader, what responsibilities have you accepted?

“From great power comes great responsibility.” Versions of this adage has been attributed to many people and became popular in the comic book story of Spiderman. With the superpower he possessed, he felt responsible for using it for good.

Leadership is not that much different from being a superhero. Yes, a leader may not have superpowers like Spiderman or any other superhero, but a leader’s superpower is to lead others toward success. This is so much a greater and stronger power since it can be used by real people in a real world.

Hence, being a leader requires a deep sense of responsibility, towards themselves and others.

The power to lead people towards the leader’s and the organization’s vision comes with responsibilities like keeping everyone on the team inspired towards the bigger picture; helping them grow; and ensuring everyone is aligned in the same direction.

It isn’t easy to be a leader nor is it for the faint of heart! Being a leader comes with a lot of responsibilities and true leaders are willing to accept them all.

There are instances when sometimes it makes us feel better to blame others or something else when things go wrong. This, however, is not practiced by a good leader.

Making excuses and blaming someone else or something for a failed job or task is not a quality of a good leader. A good leader accepts the fact that something went wrong and works with their team so that everyone, leader included, learns from the mistakes. When things go wrong, a leader uses the situation as an opportunity for everyone to learn and grow.

Leaders don’t have control over others or their actions. Leaders do, however, have full control over their own actions and behaviours – one of the biggest and most important responsibilities for a leader.

So leader, what responsibilities have you decided to accept?

New leaders: build a solid foundation to succeed in your new role

Leaders in transition face a steep learning curve with high expectations and often receive insufficient support to be successful in their new role. In fact, research has shown that nearly 50% of leader transitions fail.

A leader in a new role must quickly adapt to new processes, perspectives, and expectations. There is also an expectation for them to ramp up their skills fast and build new key relationships. Leaders often struggle in any one or more of these areas.

These struggles create risks that can have immense impacts on the business as they can reduce productivity, performance, and engagement of the incoming leader and out further into the organization.

Not addressing these struggles, impact not only the transitioning leader, but their direct reports, partners, other internal as well as external stakeholders including customers.

If this is you or your new and emerging leaders are struggling, then our Leader Foundations Leadership Academy program will be beneficial.

The Leadership Academy is a customized program specifically created to support new leaders build a solid foundation to succeed in their new roles.

The leader will interact with other leaders in a similar situation and will develop or strengthen the required skills to level up and increase their effectiveness.

Your organization may be eligible for up to $100,000 to help train your employees.

Take full command of your mind

You’re not in full command of your mind. If you were, you would choose to entirely silence the Saboteurs in your head.

If you were in full command of your mind, you would:

  • Choose to not stress out over what you can’t control
  • Push away self-doubts
  • Recover from disappointments immediately and
  • Spend little time in anger, regret, or blame.

If you’re able to do this congratulations! If you’re not, get back in the driver’s seat to build your self-command muscle and shift from a negative to a positive mind set.

Enroll in the Positive Intelligence®: Mental Fitness Foundation Program https://redworkscoaching.com/services/executive-coaching/positive-intelligence-increasing-your-mental-fitness/6-week-mental-fitness-foundation-program/

The program starts May 28.

Your organization may be eligible for funding through the Canada-Saskatchewan Job Grant or the Re-Skill Saskatchewan Training Subsidy.

Who are your Saboteurs?

Saboteurs are the voices in your head that generate negative emotion in the way you handle life’s everyday challenges. They represent automated patterns in your mind for how to think, feel and respond.

Saboteurs cause all of your stress, anxiety, self-doubt, frustration, restlessness, and unhappiness. They sabotage your performance, wellbeing and relationships.

Perhaps you have a strong Judge Saboteur that beats you up repeatedly over mistakes, wakes you up in the middle of the night worrying about something, or you judge others or your situations.

Known as the Master Saboteur, your Judge works with one or more Accomplice Saboteurs to hijack your mind and cause most of your setbacks.

You can’t defeat an adversary you don’t see or one that pretends to be your friend. The first step to conquering your Saboteurs is to identify them and expose their lies and limiting beliefs.

Sign up for the three-minute Saboteur Assessment to discover your saboteurs. https://redworkscoaching.com/services/executive-coaching/positive-intelligence-increasing-your-mental-fitness/
