Episode #276 // One of the biggest barriers to change, in any area of your life, is your own awareness of the size of the gap—that gap between your current state and your desired state.

And I’m no different to anyone else! I’ve struggled with this principle over the years in a number of different areas…

When I stacked on a few pounds after a running injury, I knew how much work it would take to get back to racing weight… and that became a barrier to starting my recovery process.

Often, the gap is so daunting that we feel like we don’t know where to begin. But in almost every case… we actually do! We just don’t want to face into it, because we know that, once we start, we have a mountain of work ahead of us.

In this episode, I take you through the process of not just starting, but mastering what you know you need to be doing, as a leader.

I simply give you a couple of leadership areas where most of you are probably underdone, and help you to work out both where to start, and how to keep momentum, by gaining the confidence that you will be successful… if only you can persevere!
