Be Your OWN CEO

By Craig Johns

Be Your Own CEO – create your own high performance habits, boundaries & influence.

Most people would relate CEO to a chief executive officer being the highest-ranking person in a company or other institution, ultimately responsible for taking managerial decisions. How ever we have redefined CEO in terms of you and your energy.

Wouldn’t it be great to experience greater levels of energy more often in your life? … Do you know we are all CEO’s … the chief energy officer of our live’s? … And think how that energy effect’s other people and the way you behave.

Be Your OWN CEO

Human effectiveness is ultimately a function of human energy. How will you mobilize, focus, inspire and sustain your energy? Do you nurture, transform and direct your own human energy?

Life is both a marathon and a sprint. There will be energy highs and lows in life, and the key is how you manage that. You need to develop the ability to harness and mobilise your energy on demand. This is a massive asset that you need to take full ownership of

You Are The CEO

Are you accountable for every action you take and its result? Do you make a conscious and intentional choice before considering your commitments? it is important to know and understand what you can really give 100% attention to.

Successful leaders say NO more than they say YES. Are you living proactively or reactively? Be more proactive and take greater charge of your life. Be proactive by design versus reactive by default. How are you being proactive in clearly mapping out your priorities and desires?

Do you understand the business of your life? Your success depends on your attention to your entire “human” company. Break down yourself into different divisions of your own “human” company and create your OWN CEO Audit & Plan.

It’s now time for you to Be Your OWN CEO!

active CEO Podcast #101 Own Your OWN VULNERABILITY

Own Your OWN VULNERABILITY

active CEO Podcast Craig Johns Own Your Own Vulnerability Breaking The CEO Code High Performance Leadership

Own Your OWN VULNERABILITY

Own Your OWN Vulnerability – Have the courage to be uncomfortable for growth. A comfort zone is a wonderful place, but nothing ever grows there.

Successful people have the unique ability to perform under high levels of pressure. Pressure comes from internal and external expectations, and as the stakes rise, fear grows. Being able to deal with fear and the uncomfortable feelings that are associated, you have to be better prepared to control your state of mind.

Why do we feel uncomfortable? That uncomfortable feeling comes from going into a place where you have never been before. You are making a change and disrupting the way your mind and body are used to doing something. It might be doing something for the first time or doing something you haven’t done for a while. It could be doing something you are used to, but the conditions or parameters have changed.

“If you want something in life that you have never had, you will have to do something that you have never done.”

To have the courage change, you also must have a sense of vulnerability. On the other side of the coin you must also have courage to be vulnerable. It is important that you have a strong sense of purpose and be prepared for being uncomfortable.

This episode will also look at being prepared to push the boundaries, surround yourself with a supportive team, understand how you manage being uncomfortable, developing and uncomfortable mindset and what rituals and behaviors can you create, so that each day you feel more comfortable with the uncomfortable.

BUILD YOUR OWN TRIBE

Build Your OWN TRIBE – who are the mentors, coaches & people in your proximity

The recent events have led to a lot of self reflection, you realise you need to upskill and upgrade, but you don’t feel like you  have the right people around you to make the change

We usually surround ourselves with two types of people. First the cheerleaders and like minded-people who give us comfort through telling us what we want to hear and two those who distract us with negativity and lack of hope.

It is important to surround ourselves with people who ask the thought provoking questions, keep us accountable and ensure we stay true to our mission.

BUILD YOUR OWN TRIBE

Who are the mentors, coaches & people in your proximity?

  1. Identify and write down a list of every skill you want to upgrade
  1. Write down a list of people and/or types of people you need in your proximity to upgrade those skills
  1. Write down 3 curious questions that you would like to ask each person and make a phone call or send an email and ask for a virtual coffee

Active CEO Performance Tip

Leadership Overwhelm – As a leader, have you ever felt completely overcome in mind or emotion, where you feel a stress or combination of stressors are too big for you to manage? This is the feeling of overwhelm. Everyone experiences some level of overwhelm and the important thing to remember, is that it is all manageable. Rather than fighting your feelings of overwhelm you can accept that anxiety is like riding a wave and it will be easier; learn to turn overwhelming thoughts into helpful thoughts; shift your thoughts from having to complete everything right now to focusing on one thing at a time; identify what you need to be present with right now; take a deep breath to relax the body; and most importantly engage in an action that you enjoy before rushing into solve the trigger of overwhelm. Start taking control of your overwhelm today.

Tweets

“To build psychological safety, admit your own failings and vulnerabilities and things that you are not good at. Thank people, stay open to try and do other things, doing risks and things differently, have the tough conversations and get to the core of the issue.” Jason Treu talks about the importance of psychological safety for building trust, on the active CEO Podcast.

“Before you can start to move things forward, you must have high level of trust.” Building trust with Jason Treu, on the active CEO Podcast.

CEO Presence

Craig Johns talks about CEO Presence, the second P of the 3P’s of the Leadership Performance Formula. CEO Presence allows you to develop and utilize skills that allow you to stay focused, hold peoples attention, raise the energy and deliver your message with clarity and purpose.

How we turn up and show up to the office, meetings, presentations and events can either have a positive or negative effect on productivity, confirming a contract or even the way current or potential consumers view your business.

How much time do you spend preparing for an interaction with a person or group of people, in regards to the content, desired outcome, mood you want to set and the way you need to present to achieve the result you are aiming for?

What routine to do you need to complete to ensure that you go into the required state to achieve the desired collective energy and mood whether it be in a meeting, arriving at the office, speaking to the participants on stage or stepping onto an event site?

CEO Presence provides you with the skills to stay focused on what is important when there are distractions, people challenging you, skeptics raising doubt in your mind and the constant noise trying to disturb you.

Have you got CEO Presence?

active CEO Podcast How To Raise Your Energy Bar With CEO Periodization

On this episode of the active CEO Podcast we talk about how to raise your energy bar through CEO Periodization, on episode #8 of Breaking The CEO Code. It is a short podcast episode where host Craig Johns decodes a new aspect of being a high performing leader each week.

CEO Periodization

Craig talks about CEO Periodization, the first P of the 3P’s of the Leadership Performance Formula. CEO PERIODIZATION allows you to proactively plan your rest and recovery from a daily to career basis.

Periodization originated from cataloguing books based on periods of time and in sport it is used to segment a block of training into periods workload and rest.

Craig discusses:

  • You can’t go full throttle for 11-12 months, every year, without expecting to get sick, fatigued and “crash and burn”, so to speak.
  • Using the 3:1 PERIODIZATION work-to-rest ratio, you can take a year and create FOUR 3 month blocks, where you can assign one key project followed by a period of scheduled recovery time.
  • Breaking a 3 month block into 4 week blocks, where you have 3 weeks which can be more intense, have higher levels of stress, travel regularly, and then one week, where you schedule no meetings, no travel, work less hours and spend time with your children and those most important to you.
  • Plan your recovery throughout the week, just like the Four Day Week, 6 hour day and tradies playing golf on Wednesdays concepts so that you can have higher levels of energy and performance.
  • You can only effectively concentrate and hold high levels of productivity for 45-90 minutes at one time before requiring a 15 to 30 minute break – 3:1 ratio – to reset your mental energy and focus so that you can maintain productivity and performance throughout an entire day.

Active CEO Performance Tip

To Diet or Not To Diet – People are often looking for the quick fix, when it comes to food. Many people jump on the bandwagon of the thousands of fad-style, celebrity endorsed and marketing designed diets, which have no research into the long-term effects on the body, mind and soul. Science compared every diet and the winner is real food. The only diet that has been implemented and remains over a long period of time is that established 10,000’s of years ago. It is a predominantly plant-based diet with no processed foods and only included the occasional meat when they were quick enough to catch it. Those living by the sea would catch fish and seafood. Why would you incorporate the middle-person in the diet, so to speak, when you can go straight to the source an eat it. What do I mean by this? Land animals generally eat plant-based diets including fruit, vegetables and grains, which are the stable of all nutritious diets. So why do we need to eat red meat, when it is just the by-product of the plant based foods we need anyway? What diet should you eat?
