Why I’m A Hypocrite And My Challenge With Mental Energy

I’m a hypocrite. There, I said it.

Leadership, both personal and professional, is an energy game. But it takes more than physical energy for peak performance. Leaders need abundant physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual energy to manage their stress and perform their best. And just like professional athletes, leaders need to train properly, regularly and on purpose to achieve the results they’re after. I help leaders do just that in Lunch & Learns, half-day workshops and even 8-week online courses.

So here I was—teaching leaders how to balance their energy—yet grinding my teeth at night. Waking up in the middle of the night with my heart racing, thinking about work and then getting up at 3am to answer emails. Snapping at my team for no reason, putting undue pressure on them.

I’m Good at Talking the Talk, But I Haven’t Been Walking the Walk

I was not walking the walk and practicing my own teachings. It was time to step back and assess what was going on. I was totally out of whack! So I did an energy assessment of myself, just like I would for a client.

My Physical, Emotional, Mental and Spiritual Energy Level Assessment

• Physical: I eat well and exercise regularly. My recent check-up showed that I had the physical energy of someone a decade younger.

• Emotional: My EQ is fairly high. When I’m not stressed, I can manage difficult situations and people with empathy and patience.

• Spiritual: I know my values and refer to them regularly.

• Mental: I have the attention span of a flea; I can’t focus on anything for more than a few minutes, and my brain is on constant overdrive. No surprise that this is my weakest area. In fact, my husband calls me a shark, because I literally can’t sit down for more than an hour without jumping up to do something.

I Have the Attention Span of a Flea

Hmmm.. this is going to be a challenge. Ask me to run a marathon and I’ll train daily for it. Tell me to go gluten-free and I’m on a baking frenzy. Offer me the chance to work with emotional teams and I can’t wait. Tell me something ‘can’t be done’ and I will find a solution or at least a work-around. Yet, invite me to sit and read a book? I read the first chapter and then the last chapter (no joke) to save time. Buy me a cuppa? I’ll start getting antsy after 30 minutes. So working on my mental energy to improve my focus is going to be hard.

Very hard.

My Shark-Like Behavior Was Impacting My Family and Team

Yet I had to do it. Not only was my shark-like behavior impacting my sleep, it was also impacting my team and family. In addition, I felt like a total hypocrite. It’s like Ellen Page saying she had to come out while filming Freeheld; I can’t teach energy management and not practice it myself.

So where to begin on this journey?

I Started With My Limiting Beliefs

First, I had to look at my limiting beliefs, or the things I thought were true that held me back from changing my behaviors. In general, our society is addicted to activity, and rewards constant busyness. We applaud the person who pulled the all-nighter; we recognize the person who stayed late to get the job done. Yet there is no such fanfare for the person who leaves at 5pm; in fact, those people are ridiculed in certain organizational cultures as weak or not team players. In addition, it’s frowned upon to take all your vacation time or take any downtime at all.

This perception is problematic for many reasons but one of those reasons is factual. The University of California put out some interesting research on the upsides of downtime. The research says:

“You can’t think without space. If you’re always doing something, there’s no way to get anything new into your mind; there’s no way to reach new conclusions.”

Why? Because unstructured time stimulates the ‘default mode network’ part of the brain, where creativity and problem solving happen. When we perform any task at all, no matter how small, our brain switches to the ‘executive network control’, which is related to deductive reasoning. So it’s when we sit back and let our minds wander, that the creative ‘default mode’ kicks in.

Even Though I Fully Knew the Benefits of Downtime, I Was at Super-Shark Speed

My limiting belief was that ‘downtime is for wimps’. The research proved me wrong. My mind was buying into the idea but my body was resisting. Even though I fully knew the benefits of downtime, I was at super-shark speed, racing around the house to get things done.

What would I tell a client in my position? I’d tell them they needed to practice downtime.

I’m a kinesthetic learner, which means I need to touch something to learn it well. So I had to find a role model to physically, literally show me what down time looks like. I had no idea how to ‘do’ downtime.

Thankfully, I didn’t have to look too far: my husband. He cherishes his downtime; I don’t mean just an hour here or there. He is fully committed to detox Sundays, where he just kicks back and reads the newspaper…the old fashioned thing made from trees. He totally unplugs and sometimes won’t even get in a car.

I Started My Practice Small, Slowly Building Mental Muscle

So I started small. I sat down for 15 minutes to read a magazine. Then I got up to plan my work for the week. Then I sat down for 20 minutes to close my eyes on the couch. Then I jumped up, feeling guilty that I hadn’t wrapped the holiday gifts. Then I allowed myself to watch a TV show, once all the ‘work had been done’. Little by little, week after week, I taught myself to chill. Stare out a window. Pet our cats. Listen to music. Snuggle in bed with our daughter. Sit on a plane without compulsively checking email. It was torture. I wanted to jump out of my skin. I wanted to do something, anything, please give me a task! Yet, I knew that I was slowly building a muscle, just like going to the gym.

I Taught Myself to Chill

And the impact was clear, both at home and work. At home, I was more patient and easier to be around. I stopped grinding my teeth and actually slept through the whole night. At work, I started enjoying writing again. It was no longer a chore. The ideas flowed out of me and actually became my most popular leadership posts, such as this one on surfing and this one on EQ. And my best product ideas and client ideas came from daydreaming out the window.

The best part? I no longer feel like a hypocrite. I’m a leader who inspires other leaders to manage their energy, all of it, for peak performance.

Do you think you need more practice managing your physical, emotional, mental, or spiritual energy? I’d love to hear what challenges you have and how you face those challenges.

Game 27 Cut and Dried Sat, August 17 2:00pm EDT Minnesota @ Washington

Starting: WASH: Atkins, Austin, Dolson, Samuelson, Sykes MINN: Carleton, Collier, McBride, Smith, Williams

1st Quarter Devastatingly, CBS has deprived the world of the commentary legends Christy Winters Scott and Meghan McPeak. Already I hate this game. How does it make sense to bring in new commentators for every broadcasting network that has rights to a smattering of games? Home commentary crews know their teams best and know their FANS best. It feels wrong to be at ESA and not hear McWin. Karlie hurts her knee right away WTF. We've had a couple early giveaways but the Lynx haven't capitalized. Shakira with a block. Stef is rebounding well. Shatori absolutely WORKS against Williams but doesn't get the net in the end. Stef goes for 3 to give us a 7-2 headstart. McBride and Collier go back-to-back with tough buckets but Stef goes again from deep. It's the Stics vs Phee so far tonight. Oof we were 11-6 and now it's 11-16…. Shatori shakes again and this time she bakes as well. Unfortunately, we don't get to hear The Coach Christy enjoy it. Not gonna lie, Shakira looks out of sorts, not great ball control, lack of awareness, miscues. NONE of these things are typical of her game at all so I have to put it down to missing 19 games. 16-22.

2nd Quarter A couple misses from the Lynx have brought us back within four as Shakira does some sort of magic to keep the ball in her hands and finish underneath. She's sorted it out, it seems! Shots are coming late for both teams now as defensive schemes work better. With that comes more fouls on and off ball. Juhasz and Ariel both have nice 3s. In my opinion, JVL is playing better person D than pre-Olympics. She does get beat by Williams, but Court put in work. Earl just DANCED beautifully for 2. Stef checks back in after a long bench spell and immediately goes for 3 to tie it. Most Likely to Tie the Game with a Three: Stefanie Dolson. Williams is going off with the midrange jumpers. Shatori says me too. Tori steals. Commentator can't say Thibault. It's a hard name no doubt but it's a name that's been in the game for decades… Name mispronunciation by announcers always gets me. Jado finds Stef who passes back in to Jade on the drive, kick out to Ariel for 3—rebounds her own and scoops to Shatori who drills the trey. It's basketball, babyyyy. We're in the lead! Carleton kills the crowd with her response. Court is still cooking. The Lynx pull back in front after a couple Mystics fouls. 39-45.

3rd Quarter Karlie Samuelson is not returning to the game. GREAT start otherwise to this half for the Stics. Forced turn, perfectly executed O, another turn off hot D. Tough break after having the ball swatted away multiple times the Lynx land a 3. Now Collier gets one. She's 8 of 11 lol. DC is now trailing by 11. Yikes, an incredibly sloppy sequence here. Aaliyah comes in and scores then plays great D on Phee….to no avail. Fortunately, Stef was due for another 3. Oh my god Napheesa. She's going to be Finals MVP when the Lynx win the Championship. Minnesota are lights out this quarter. Yet, no timeouts from Eric. Hmmm. Ok as I say that it happens. Well, the Lynx missed only 3 shots this whole quarter. 56-78.

4th Quarter Kayla McBride hits a 3 right away. Austin has a nice pass block leading to a turn but we can't capitalize. It's a 25-point Minnesota lead and this is hard to watch. I'd call it our worst game of the season but I actually think our games where we led going into the 4th and lost were worse. Stef has 2 more 3s and she's 8 of 8. So they bench her. Aaliyah gets a steal but misses the bunny, an unfortunate theme for her tonight. We've narrowed the deficit to 16 at least. 83-99 final. Minnesota absolutely outplayed us.

Washington, D.C. queer café and bar As You Are. is currently having a fundraiser to help them stay open after some financial setbacks. It's such a special space for the LGBT+ community in D.C., and since I've seen many people on tumblr talk about how we need spaces like this, it would be really nice if you all could share and donate.

Here's the message from the founders on their GoFundMe:

Hello Friends, As You Are. (AYA) DC is in need of urgent support. Many of you may already know who we are and for those of you who don't, we are the only Queer safe space of our kind to our knowledge. AYA is a cafe, bar & dance floor that hosts diverse programming nearly every night of the week including; social sport leagues, Queer youth socials, weekly karaoke, book clubs, open mics, Queer author events, dance parties, and much more! My wife Jo, and I are the co-founders of this Queer haven in Capitol Hill, DC and our entire team is a part of executing the mission of AYA existing to hold and cultivate a safe space for the LGBTQIA+ community. While this community is our priority, everybody is welcome to join us in lovingly celebrating our magnificent Queer culture. We have faced some particularly tall and costly hurdles that have set us back significantly since the beginning. As we are tapping every resource we can imagine with creativity and open minds we need urgent assistance. The funds raised will go toward catching up on overhead costs and debts incurred during a slow season at the close of last year. While AYA has seen a significant increase in customer traffic and revenue that is promising moving forward the funds raised will be applied immediately to saving AYA from closure. As You Are is the fruit of our community's labor, love, and loyalty. Together we have built a safe haven for so many from every part of the LGBTQIA+ community and our allies. Our team is committed to keeping the Queer community safe through fierce protection of the atmosphere and culture, diversifying our menu and programming to serve people from all walks, and keeping our space and services accessible and affordable. The team at AYA is made up of deeply invested Queer people that represent across many intersections and have contributed to the culture in ways there are not words to describe. Many of you know and love them, I know Jo and I sure do! We would be remiss not to shout them out and thank them for making AYA what it is with their love and due diligence. If you're in a position to help, we would be so grateful. With love, always, Coach

Suspect Accused Of Killing 3 University Of Virginia Football Players

By Yvonne Kalpakis, Loyola University New Orleans Class of 2023

November 21, 2022

A former University of Virginia football player is in jail on suspicion of shooting and murdering three football players and injuring two additional students on campus late Sunday night[1]. After a manhunt in Charlottesville, Virginia, the suspect was taken into custody[1].

Jim Ryan, the president of the University of Virginia, revealed the names of the three football players who were shot and killed: junior defensive end/linebacker D’Sean Perry of Miami, junior receiver Lavel Davis Jr. of Dorchester, South Carolina, and junior receiver Devin Chandler of Huntersville, North Carolina[1].

Just before 11 a.m. in Henrico County, Virginia, the shooting suspect, named as Christopher Darnell Jones Jr. was reportedly caught[1]. Jones, 22, was detained and booked with three charges of second-degree murder and three counts of using a weapon in the conduct of a felony, according to University of Virginia Police Chief Tim Longo[1].

Online records show that Jones is still detained at the Albemarle-Charlottesville Regional Jail[2]. According to James Hingeley, the Commonwealth's Attorney for Albemarle County, Jones was assigned a public defender until his upcoming hearing in December, which will be a status hearing where it will be discussed whether Jones has hired a private attorney[2].

According to a university official, Jones traveled to Washington, DC, on Sunday with other UVA students to see a play[2].

Two more students, one of whom was in severe condition, were shot, according to Ryan, and were taken to the hospital[1]. Junior running back Mike Hollins is one among the injured pupils, according to his father, who spoke to The Washington Post[1]. After being shot in the back, Michael Hollins Sr. informed The Post that his son is in “stable” condition[1].

The shooting happened after the students got back to campus following a field trip on a charter bus[1]. Tony Elliott, the football coach at Virginia, said in a statement that his squad is going through “devastation and anguish[1].”

According to Ryan, the students took a field trip to Washington, D.C., on Sunday to see a play[1]. After sharing a dinner together, “someone among them opted to execute an act of violence,” according to Longo[1]. Longo was informed that Jones had been captured by another law enforcement official 13 minutes into the 20-minute news conference on Monday[1]. Longo took a moment to breathe after reporting the arrest[1].

Chris Jones Sr., Jones’ father, told Richmond TV station WTVR that he was shocked after receiving a call from the police on Monday[1]. “My sympathy is with their families.” He responded, “I don’t know what to say other than on his behalf, I’m sorry and I apologize[1].”

According to the proprietor of Dance's Sporting Goods in Colonial Heights, Jones bought two firearms this year, a semiautomatic rifle and a pistol, in separate transactions[2]. Jones also tried twice to purchase a pistol there, but he was denied in 2018 because he was under the age (21) required to purchase a weapon[2]. Three years later, according to Dance, he attempted to purchase a gun but failed a background check[2]. Virginia State Police Spokesperson Corinne Geller wrote in an email to CNN that an inquiry into the attempted purchase on July 8, 2021 discovered that Jones' request was denied by the state police gun transaction center because of an outstanding legal situation[2].

The court removed the ban on further transactions in October 2021 after reducing the active case to a misdemeanor, according to Geller[2]. University of Virginia Police was contacted by CNN for comment regarding the shooting inquiry and the weapon used, but no response was received[2].

Longo said during the press conference that Jones’ remarks about having a gun on campus were brought to the attention of the university’s multidisciplinary threat assessment team in September[1]. The individual, who was not connected to the university, according to Longo, had never seen the pistol[1].

Longo claimed that there were no threats made in conjunction with the remark regarding Mr. Jones carrying a pistol[1]. He also said that Jones’ remarks concerning the gun were reported to the office of student affairs, which then attempted to talk with Jones[1].

According to Longo, Jones’ roommate told the university that he had not seen a firearm[1].

Later, the university discovered that Jones had faced misdemeanor concealed handgun charges in February 2021 outside of Charlottesville[1]. He was supposed to inform the university of the criminal accusations, but he didn't[1]. Longo stated that Jones was the subject of administrative charges brought by the university through the judiciary council, and that the case was still pending[1].

Monday 23rd September 1839

[Anne again wakes up with a bowel complaint, and Ann will likely soon fight her for access to the necessary, seeing as how the doctor has prescribed her a laxative. Today the two of them go to the Hermitage and are impressed by some stunning works of art (one of which used to be owned by Anne’s friend Countess de Bourke), but are no doubt disappointed to miss a picture notorious for containing a pissing cow. After some more sightseeing, and the obligatory bookshop visit, Russian is again studied in the evening. At midnight, the moon is beautiful.]

Using Growth Mindset for Career Success

In today’s rapidly advancing world, continual learning is a given. In the future, people are less likely to be hired for what they “know” and more likely to be hired for their ability to learn what they “don’t know”.

Why is continual learning important to you? According to a survey conducted by Evolution:

• 96% people see a positive impact of continual learning on job performance

• 78% people see continual learning as a factor in promotions and career advancement

• 87% people say continual learning correlates with increases in compensation and salary

So how do you create a habit of continual learning? One way is to apply Growth Mindset, which is finding yourself in a new situation and not knowing what to do – but then figuring it out.

What is Growth Mindset?

Growth Mindset a set of beliefs that shape how you make sense of the world and yourself. It influences how you think, feel, and behave in any given situation. People with growth mindset see failure as an opportunity to grow. They see challenges as a path toward growth and let their effort and attitude determine their abilities. They are inspired by the success of their team members and take feedback as a constructive way of improvement.

Source: Fixed v. Growth Mindset. “Mindset” by CarolDweck | Medium |

Beliefs and Behaviors of Growth Mindset Leaders

Leaders with growth mindset put growth first and unite the business goals around it. They back the risktakers, knowing there is a possibility of failure. The focus is toward action rather than perfection. These leaders infuse those around them with a purpose.

What sets a leader with purpose apart from one without purpose? There are three core elements for experiencing purpose: positive impact on others, personal development, and delivery of work through strong relationships. A purpose-driven leader fosters these experiences for her team and has a mission for her work. This mission is something that every team member knows because it’s communicated repeatedly by the leader.

Working with a growth mindset involves delegating work and having confidence in the people around you. Delegation goes beyond just handing off the job. It includes setting performance expectations, accountability, and providing feedback.

Breaking the Fixed Mindset

The most important factor when building a growth mindset is seeing the value in your journey. When the focus is just fixed on the end result, you miss out on all the things you could be learning during the journey.

If you’re not able to perform a certain task or activity, remember that you just haven’t become an expert in it yet. By using the power of “yet”, you can overcome many obstacles. Mistakes are one of the best ways to learn, so, instead of running away from challenges, take them head-on.

Tips to Build a Growth Mindset

Here are three tips to build a growth mindset:

• Counter stressful situations: Much of the anxiety we experience is due to the uncertainty caused by things outside our control. The best way to combat that is to focus on the things we can control – like our effort, our attitude, and how we treat people.

• Adapt to change: Sometimes the wave of change is headed your way full force whether you’re ready or not. You can either let the wave crash against you, knock you down and pull you under, or you can face the same direction the wave is headed and catch a ride to shore. Make the decision to ride the wave and accept the change.

• Keep a watch on non-verbal emotional cues: Often people express one thing verbally, but their body is telling a completely different story. So, focus on the non-verbals while communicating with others.

Have you worked with a colleague or leader who has a Growth Mindset? How did it effect you and the organization?

Fiction: In Hindsight

An essay by Decatur Scott, as provided by Shana Ross Art by Justine McGreevy

July/August 2055

  Q: What technology or scientific advancement was the biggest mistake in human history?

  Carey Murphy, research and development, Kinetic Informatics

Using quantum entanglement to power garage door openers. I mean, I hate changing batteries on a transponder as much as the next guy, but it’s just irresponsible to have a remote that opens and closes the door to your house from anywhere in the universe.

Michiko Hawley, researcher and professor, Harvard University

The dolphin translator. The tech is brilliant, but it was just a bad idea. Dolphins are wicked smart, and they’re super angry, very bitter as a species. Nothing nice to say to us, about us, etc. And the thing about the translator tech is that once you’ve gone public with it, everyone knows it exists, it works … well, it’s not like you can STOP talking to the dolphins now. You’re stuck. And it just sucks to have to keep hearing, over and over, about all the awful things humanity is responsible for, and have these smug self-important fish nagging and nagging about how pod responsibility starts with individuals. It’s really damaging to your self-confidence, right? Just … ugh.

Dolphins are wicked smart, and they’re super angry, very bitter as a species.

WELCOME!

Rondar Strategic Solutions starts with an engagement, yes, the romantic kind between two people. In December 2018, I said yes to marrying Joe Roberts, my best friend. Our partnership was (and is!) based on our common values: helping the communities we belong to and care about, being life-long learners and teachers, and our inextinguishable entrepreneurial spirits. Joe’s background as  an organizational leader, development expert, and former political operative with over 15 years of strategic leadership experience and serving as Chief Executive Officer of Jewish London, the former Global Chief Advancement Officer at The Israel Project in Washington, DC & Vice President of Major Gifts at the Jewish Federation of Greater Los Angeles. I, on the other hand, bring a decade of Executive Sales experience(my name is Marielle Indar, look me up on LinkedIn!). I’m an expert in B2B, B2C, Outside and Inside Sales, as well as Strategic Sales Leadership and have held Sales Leadership positions across many industries. We created Rondar Strategic Solutions to bring our expertise to the non-profit and for-profit world! Though on-site seminars, executive coaching and guided implementations, we whole-heartedly offer expertise to individuals and organizations alike. We realize there are so many variables —people, structure, culture, process, compensation, management, technical skills —it's difficult to pinpoint exactly what to do to raise the bar. We encourage you to reach out if you want to #LevelUp, send us a DM or email me at ‘marielle@rondargroup.com’ for a diagnostic phone call or video chat!
