Creating an energy flow
As you might know I’m a practitioner and big fan of the 5AM club. This morning I have another great moment and what to share that here. Maybe people want to pick it put - so please let’s exchange. Maybe this could flow in a pathway and methods in a pathway, who knows.
It is about the combination of mental loading/immersion, physical activity and using insights from Building a Second Brain (BASB) and worked like that:
- I went o bed yesterday evening at around 22:30 after I finished some chapters from the ***************************************Future Organisation Playbook Consciously I did avoid actions that would override that last impression
- I got up today morning 5:15 (still struggle with the time shift) , woke up naturally, so without alarm or something. And started reading further around 5:30. I red with first capture until 7:15
- Then I did my 1h Peloton ride … medium intensity. So that I need to focus but can still think. No distractions. This brings me within some minutes in flow zone and my mind started spinning around, like crazy. I had a lot of thoughts around what I read, how that might connect with coaching. At that point I wished I had something to externalise these thought immediately … I’ll find a solution for that soon to. Likely a Siri or Alexa thingy.
- After that exercise I’m now capturing these thought and externalize. Knowing from BASB that our brain is for creating ideas, not for storing them. And following Working out Loud to express thought and immediately enable collaboration.
Alone that method shows a combination of 5AM Club (maybe extended with Guide ******************************Master your 5 pillars of Energy) and Basb (also with guide **Hacks to Boost creativity) where a cool pathway could be created from.
Further hunches from that energy burst:
- Thoughts about Leaderhsip 4.0 and a pathway
- Let’s work with rewards. I had this with several trainings where I got a certificate only when I joined X out of Y modules. Could be also combined with module completion small certificates and an umbrella certificate. That might be especially interesting for longer elements.
- Certifications also as instrument to share a success in LinkedIn. Based on my own experience I add certificates immediately to my profile and I love collecting badges (cross connect also with why I really like Peloton. And I have now quite some achievements that I’m proud of - isn’t that crazy?)
- I need to capture fast … so I can further tune that flow. Will keep you up-to-date on that
- The methods in Future Organization Playbook are really cool. Great, condensed insights on leadership … and a lot of signals in several directions
- An extension to Opportunity-Solution-Trees … when I observe a behavior I should capture that and then trace back to an underlying opportunity (pain point, need, desire). So if I observe people not joining all pathway modules (behavior in first instance) … whare are potential opportunities connected (no time, not interesting, simply forgot, hating cohort based learning,etc.) … This was regarding methodology a missing link for how to derive opportunities … how cool is that
- Regarding the energy pathway … this would require another form of exercises … that span days with self experiments and using the cohort to immerse and share excitements, provide hints and manifesting the learnings by expressing it…
- I had the hunch of my group learning experience when I joined the Scrum Change Manager course that went through 4 modules of 2 days and where a whole leadership team got together. One of the best experiences of learning I ever had. And the effect on group building was just outstanding.
