“All I can Do” Mindset

“The number one lie that talented young leaders tell themselves is this, ‘I can do it all.’

This lie is insidious because, at face value, it seems so true, and yet it is among the greatest of deceptions.

Indeed, no matter what we tell ourselves, at best, we only vacillate between priorities, and at worst, we dilute our impact.

We need to replace the ‘I can do it all’ mindset with the ‘all I can do’ mindset. The ‘all I can do’ mindset focuses on ‘the one thing’ that truly matters.”
