Do you love the work you do?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In order to reach your full leadership potential, you must do work that you enjoy.

Leaders who reach this state maximize their creativity and motivation, producing high-quality work for their organization.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(Shortform note: The benefits of finding a role you thrive in may <a href=\"https:\/\/www.huffpost.com\/entry\/work-love_b_8010174\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">extend beyond the workplace<\/a>. You may also enjoy better health due to reduced stress; improved relationships due to improved overall happiness; and higher confidence, as you focus on doing the things you\u2019re best at.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-reach-your-full-leadership-potential\"><strong>How to Reach Your Full Leadership Potential<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>To reach your full potential, you must identify what work will enable you to excel and then seek that work<\/strong>. Consider what work you enjoy the most, what work you do best, and what work best utilizes your skills.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(Shortform note: Here, the authors focus on the <em>internal <\/em>factors that will help you excel: the things that depend solely on <em>you <\/em>(your preferences, skills, and talents). However, many <em>external<\/em> factors\u2014factors outside of your control\u2014can also influence whether or not you excel in a certain role. When searching for your ideal work, consider whether or not your prospective employer values things like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/theyec\/2018\/02\/01\/eight-tips-to-help-your-employees-thrive-day-to-day\/?sh=18b78fdb3817\">creating a positive working environment, supporting employee growth, and supporting employees to achieve their personal goals<\/a>: These factors will arguably help you to excel. Meanwhile, the <em>lack<\/em> of them will likely produce a frustrating workplace experience.)&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Next, the authors explain, you must mitigate the fears that can come from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/chasing-success\/\">chasing success<\/a>. <\/strong>Many people hold back from reaching their full potential because they\u2019re afraid\u2014that the success won\u2019t last, that it\u2019ll be too much for them to handle, and that they can\u2019t possibly achieve and maintain something so wonderful. To overcome this fear, the authors recommend doing something mundane straight after achieving something incredible\u2014for instance, cleaning your shower just after learning you\u2019ve been promoted to your dream role. This tricks your nervous system into associating extreme success with normality, quieting your fears that the success is too good to last or accept.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Finally, encourage others to reach their full potential and do <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/fulfilling-work\/\">fulfilling work<\/a>. <\/strong>Leaders should ask each of their team members what work they find most fulfilling and do their best to integrate this type of work into each person\u2019s responsibilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(Shortform note: The authors of <a href=\"https:\/\/shortform.com\/app\/book\/primal-leadership\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>Primal Leadership<\/em><\/a> explain that <a href=\"https:\/\/shortform.com\/app\/book\/primal-leadership\/1-page-summary#coaching\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">supporting your team members in this way is characteristic of a <em>coaching leadership style<\/em><\/a><em>.<\/em> To lean into and develop your coaching abilities, work one-on-one with employees to identify both their career <em>and<\/em> personal aspirations, and help them <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/action-plan-on-how-to-achieve-goals\/\">create an action plan<\/a> to achieve them. Further, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/motivate-employees-as-a-manager\/\">motivate employees<\/a> to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/how-to-overcome-obstacles\/\">overcome obstacles<\/a> and accomplish difficult tasks that might be hindering their progress.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/rewire-your-brain\/\">Rewire Your Brain<\/a> for Success<\/strong><br><br>Here, the authors recommend intentionally reprogramming your brain so that success no longer scares you. In <a href=\"https:\/\/shortform.com\/app\/book\/awaken-the-giant-within\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>Awaken The Giant Within<\/em><\/a><em>, <\/em>Tony Robbins elaborates on this type of neural conditioning. He explains that <a href=\"https:\/\/shortform.com\/app\/book\/awaken-the-giant-within\/chapter-2#trace-your-pain-and-pleasure-associations-back-to-your-brain\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">our brains connect certain stimuli with either pain or pleasure based on our experiences<\/a>\u2014these connections are called neuroassociations. When we have painful neuroassociations with something, we fear and avoid it. On the other hand, pleasurable neuroassociations cause us to seek out associated stimuli or experiences again in the future.&nbsp;Robbins notes that we can create new neuroassociations to override painful ones and make us more open to certain experiences. By following the authors\u2019 advice and doing something mundane after achieving success, you arguably form a new neuroassociation that tells your brain success is safe and normal, not something to be feared.<br><br>According to Robbins\u2019s explanation, you might make yourself even more inclined toward success by rewarding yourself with something pleasurable after moments of success. After reaching a new <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/levels-of-success\/\">level of success<\/a>, do something that makes you feel happy and supported, like having a nice dinner with your loved ones. Your brain will then associate the pleasure from this activity with being successful, making you more likely to want to achieve more success in the future.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How can you reach your full leadership potential?
