How My Therapist Turned Me Into a Leadership Ninja
Okay, let’s cut the crap and dive right in. You know what’s as underrated in leadership as a silent phone during a meeting? Therapy
Yes, you heard me. Good old-fashioned, sit-on-a-couch-and-talk-about-your-feelings therapy.
I’ve been there, done that, and guess what? It didn’t just sort out my headspace; it turned me into a freaking leadership ninja.
First off, let’s talk self-awareness.
It’s like having a superpower where you can see yourself from the outside, minus the creepy stalker vibe.
My therapist, let’s call her ‘Yoda in a cardigan’, helped me nail this. I learned to observe my actions, reactions, and emotions like a hawk.
But not just any hawk — a hawk with laser vision and a degree in psychology.
Then there’s this thing called ruthless sincerity.
Sounds intense, right? It’s like being brutally honest with yourself without turning into a self-loathing troll.
I faced the music, owned up to my mistakes, and it was like cleaning the gunk off my leadership goggles. Suddenly, I saw things clearer.
