LEADERSHIP STRATGEY: MAXIMIZE ESPRIT DE CORPS
we are conditioned negative before the age of five
A space exists between our ears that fills with pictures of potential futures, whether we like the mental movie or not. Research suggests that before the age of five, people on average were conditioned by well intentioned parents and other adults, to respond to change and the unknown at a ratio of 12:1 negative.
Most of these mind movies are playing below our consciousness and subliminally predispose us to move us towards what is playing—and what is playing is typically 12:1 negative. We move towards what we have been conditioned to believe. The solution is to fill head spaces with visions of preferred futures.. The next step is to align behaviors in support of positive visions—rather than knee jerk reactions to negative programming. Jiminy Cricket said it best, “when your heart is in your dream, no excuse is too extreme.” The space between our ears is the foundation upon which strong individuals, relationships, and teams are built.
