Leadership First’s Post

Doing hard things better… is not easy. Having the ability to dig deep and push through requires strength, grit and focus.

You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have. When life presents us with difficult situations, we may feel overwhelmed and unsure of our capabilities. However, it's in these moments of adversity that our true strength and courage come forward. When we have no option but to confront hardships head-on, we discover how determined and resourceful we can be. We learn to persevere, adapt, and push through obstacles we never thought we could overcome. This inner strength often surprises us, showing the incredible toughness and spirit that lies within each of us. Tough times are not just trials but opportunities for personal growth and self-discovery. Embracing these challenges can lead to a profound realization of our own power and potential. It's a testament to the human spirit's ability to endure and thrive, even in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds. #Strength #Courage #Perseverance #PersonalGrowth #Adversity #HumanSpirit #GrowthInChallenges When was a time you discovered your own strength in a challenging situation?

Resilience is everything!

Being able to consider anything that happens to you as an opportunity to learn and grow will help you develop personal leadership, become a role model for others. Focus on what the outcome may bring, how you can best deal with the situation and how to move forward. Don't waste time on blaming the situation or others, on regrets, on what if's... Instead, move on. You can acknowledge the negative feelings it cause, but do not linger there. Accept that they are there and than start thinking of what is possible and what could possibly be new roads to walk on, new domains to explore, new ways to contribute and grow.

True gold is tested by fire

“Spot on! I completely agree. As a HypnoBreathwork facilitator and empowerment coach, I see every day how our darkest moments are often our most powerful catalysts for growth. It’s when we’re pushed to our limits that we truly discover what we’re made of. Remember, it’s not the hardships themselves, but how we choose to respond to them that defines us. Let’s use tools like HypnoBreathwork to turn our challenges into stepping stones for success. We’re stronger than we think, and we can handle more than we know. Let’s embrace our struggles and use them to propel us forward. Thanks for this powerful reminder! #Resilience #InnerStrength #HypnoBreathwork”

I didn’t know. I didn’t know what this meant 3 years ago. I didn’t know how this was even a possibility 4 years ago. I didn’t even understand the rock I was under 5 years ago. Personally. Professionally. Life. This is so insanely accurate. We feel like there’s no way up. Nothing glimmering at the end of the dark hole. But if you hold on. Stay true to your core values. The light finally comes. And you find yourself in spaces and places you never knew were possible. And hopefully working with and for people that not only shine the light but make your light shine brighter because they just- get it. I’m so thankful… for the hard. It was the darkest and most depressing days I could never, even on a great day, explain. But they made me grow. And they pushed me to break my own barriers. And those days have made me the most grateful person for the opportunities I’ve been given today, and appreciate every day I get to sign on and say- this.. this is my career and this is what GOOD looks like and most importantly FEELS like. Even when days today feel hard. Because it’s hard but it’s GOOD hard. It’s grit. Its willingness to work at it and know you have people that want to see success overall… because overall means we win. I can’t ever say enough how proud I am to work at Trane Technologies… and how grateful I am to get to do what I love with people I respect. And I show up every, single, day. Because I know what bad looks like. I know what toxic and abusive culture feels like. And I appreciate real, human, truthful, and genuine culture in my work place today. And it’s where I stand. And I am so proud of what I get to do, who I get to do it with, and our culture and leadership principles we don’t just SAY, but we DO… every day. The hard makes you strong. The hard teaches you to grow. The mindset is.. growth and opportunities… and with that- anything is possible. Find the light- and keep the hope. It always comes when you least expect it! #weboldlygo

Wanted to share few thoughts about hardship called depression. I've gone thru that and no, I'm not ashamed to admit it, in fact I'm proud of the human being I've become because of it. * I was forced to look deep inside of myself and now I see better, not only me, but others as well. * I'm more present, I'm more humane; I realize better that encounters matter; smiles, looking another human being in the eyes, concentrating to presence and listening makes a big difference. * I'm more myself; I've realized that I really don't have to act like something I'm not to make an impression. I am enough. * I accept imperfections; none of us are perfect, so it's important to be gracious to others but also to yourself. * I've learned what my boundaries are and most importantly I've learned to keep them. Also I've learned to respect more boundaries of others. * I know knowledge/knowhow is power, and I've learned that the best possible way to use that power is to share the knowledge. * People behind the titles matter; I've learned not to be afraid of superiors in chain of command. They are as imperfect as you are, so don't expect them to be perfect in their roles since that expectation is unfair. * And that same applies to employees in your team. * I've learned to be better supervisor/manager because what I have endured. And remember, you never ever know what others are going thru, and the state that this world is in, KINDNESS is the only thing that matters. Love, Peace & Rock'n'roll 🤘🏼❤
