Look inside yourself though and you’ll quickly see how complex it all is. We know, with great certainty, that the other person is wrong. It stems from the notion that we all feel completely right. But life is messy.Ĭulture is steeped in an “I’m right, you’re wrong” way of communication.
We like neat tidy packages of our assumptions and beliefs. Not because we’re apathetic, but because life is more complicated than we first think. It’s about learning that not everything is worth fighting. Growth and improvement are often the most powerful forms of change. Most of us will do everything in our power to maintain the status quo, even if the status quo isn’t working. To seek productive disagreement in our lives. To question things we’ve long thought were absolutely true. The first disagreement that may serve us well is to disagree with ourselves. Benefits are possible – far more probable – when we put ourselves in the company of people who can help us grow. I prefer to lean into the sunlight of what’s possible if we just put our minds into active work. There’s positive power in teaching such lessons to our children and to ourselves. Bad company corrupts good morals according to the Bible. I know we could easily focus on the negative side of the power of others. And yes, that can include those who disagree with us. This is a podcast about how we benefit from who surrounds us. I bring this up right here in the initial episode of The Power Of Others podcast because it demonstrates the point of this podcast so well. Disagreement takes on many forms and faces. But the blaming game isn’t limited to that phrase. “That’s not our department’s responsibility,” isn’t something the leaders at the top want to continue to hear. I had a number of clients who wanted to enter the new year with a focus (for some, a renewed focus) on crafting a culture devoid of blame. The old year ended professionally with a focus on disagreement. Remaining in the same habits won’t result in a different outcome. Even more so, we likely don’t alter our behavior. Other surveys report that well over 90% of all resolutions fail somewhere along the way as the new year progresses.ĭue to the vast distinctions of resolutions, it’s tough to determine why they fail, but there likely are some general truths we can consider.įor starters, many of us decide to do something that we’ve never done before.
News & World Report, 80% of New Year’s resolutions fail by mid-January. It remains to be seen if we can leverage it the way we hope. Subscribe: Apple Podcasts | Google Podcasts | Spotify | Email | RSS | MoreĢ020 is getting a lot of appropriate buzz as a year for clearer vision.
