How are you at solving other people's problems?
Does it sometimes seem easier to you to tackle a concern of someone else, rather than one of your own issues?
Sometimes we can see with greater clarity the problems of someone else, and miss those of our own that are right in front of our eyes.
But does that mean we should go around solving other people's problems?
Can you tell the difference between helping and interfering?
It may feel easier to solve someone else's problems but trying to do so may not help either of you.
It's usually better to help, rather than take on, the issues of another person.
How can you make yourself available to help, without assuming responsibility or ownership?
High performance leaders sort that out, and help when they are needed while letting other people learn what they need to learn to move forward in their mission.
It's not always easy -- that's what makes it so wonderfully valuable.
