Trusting The Order In All

It doesn’t take swinging from a trapeze or jumping off a cliff to make transformational leaps in your life. You have opportunities to make transformational leaps every second of the day – every day. In the in8model® I suggest that there are four essential life principles which help to align your perspective and inspire profound transformation. Today we will visit the first one being, the ability to trust the order in everything. It’s a tricky one, isn’t it? With such…

Quadrant 1Your Life

Certainty v Uncertainty

Many people speak of the importance of certainty. They say that to succeed you must be rock sold and certain in your position. They say that you must resolutely ‘hold the line’. I disagree. I suggest that growth happens when we surrender to the uncertainty that lies just beyond the known and familiar. The certainty trap is a state of holding on tightly to the trapeze bar in the metaphor that we spoke of previously. This is a state in…

Quadrant 1Your Life

Living in the Abyss

Life can feel like a series of high wire trapeze swings. Imagine yourself either hanging on to a trapeze bar swinging along or, for a few moments at a time hurtling through space in between the trapeze bars. Most of the time we are tightly hanging on to our trapeze-bar-of-the-moment. These are the behaviour that you call ‘me’. This is your identity. It carries you along at a certain steady rate of swing and you have the feeling that you’re…

Is Your Personality Useful?

It is undeniable that we are engulfed in a rapidly changing world, both local and global. The world is changing and like it or not you are a part of it. At any point of your journey it is useful to reflect on where you are, where you have been and where you wish to be. Are you where you want to be? Is your life where you want it to be? Are your relationships where you would like them…

One Step At A Time

When there seems as though there is too much to do, too many projects to complete and too big of an obstacle to surmount there is a tendency to shrink, throw one’s hands in the air and cry that it’s all too much. This is a common cry from people of all walks of life. In these times I suggest that it is the time to be proactive. Going on the front foot, taking action and empowering yourself can be…

Mind the “Gaps”

If you have ever spent any time in London, UK you will be familiar with the recording telling you to “Mind the Gap’ as you enter and exit the trains in the ‘Underground’. This warning alerts you to the fact that a ‘Gap’ can be a dangerous experience if you step into it without being aware. In the context of ‘Gaps’ in your business, the same could be said. You have ‘Gaps’ in you and your team’s behavioural preferences and…

Where does your team fit?

When you are designing, operating or optimising your team you will want to have the right people with the right talents in the right places. It is critical to the success of your business that you have the right people playing passionately to their strengths in the right positions. As the saying goes you can’t fit square pegs into round holes. The in8model® questionnaire results give you a powerful advantage in getting the “square pegs in the square holes”. The…

Choose your words with care

As a reminder as to how important every word we say to the people we serve a great mentor of mine, the late Dr. DeJarnette made the statement that “Words kill more people than bullets”. Think of the millions of lives that have and are being lost because of the utterances of dictators, despots and duly elected governments throughout recent history alone. Closer to home, think about the impact of the language that you are using on your circle of…

Typical Job Roles for Each Quadrant

The Right Career Path For You We have a choice to make in life. Either, life is random. Things just happen and we either have good luck or bad luck. Sometimes we end up in a good place and other times we end up in a bad place but we can’t do anything about it. We are helpless and are an effect of the world so we just better get as much as we can from it while we can.…
