A leader who sometimes feels scattered, overwhelmed, and like they are losing their positive perspective is likely experiencing stress and pressure. They may struggle to maintain the high-performance quality they are used to. While they are still getting things done, they may worry that they just do not have the time and energy to get ahead of day-to-day survival leading them to more of a tactical view versus a strategic vision. In this situation, the leader needs to take a step back and reevaluate their core values and how they align with how they show up each day. They also need to be kind to themselves and recognize that it's okay to make mistakes or let some things go. By practicing self-care, seeking support from colleagues or mentors, and focusing on what truly matters, leaders can regain their positive perspective and accelerate their path to greater cognitive agility and resilience.
