Lost At Sea?…… Walking home from lunch in Harlyn on Sunday, the kids asked for an ice cream to quickly discover Mr Whippy was quite literally floating away in the Sea…. The kid’s priority was to know how the ice cream would be saved and what did it mean for getting ice creams for the rest of the holiday… My thoughts went straight to the vendor who clearly had been distracted enough to not notice his van getting drowned by the Sea….😳. As I have learned first hand to ensure optimal results you need focus on the priorities, as getting distracted can quickly lead to failure.. What I have also learned over the years is that to maintain focus on the important issues, sometimes you need some support to help weed out the distractions. Something Chris Evans is becoming a master at! I couldn’t be prouder of his work in developing Mio, as from experience there’s no doubt that mentors and coaches can provide essential handrails, helping us focus our footing and ensuring we not only survive but thrive amidst the storms!!
Back to you RAF days - one of the inhibitors to situational awareness is focus lock. Too absorbed in the tactical task to see what is developing around you.😉
I'm surprised there weren't any cones preventing the van from driving too far onto the beach! 😀
Love this
