Success as an Air Traffic Controller is a Choice- Focus Your Energy

The Side by Side ATC Podcast

In this episode, I continue talking about John Maxwell's book " Success ia a Choice' and how it pertains to us as air traffic controllers.

This week, I talk about- Focus Your Energy.

"Having talent without focus is like an octopus on roller skates. Talent with focus directs you and has the potential to take you far."- John Maxwell.

Some facts about Focus:

• Focus does not come naturally to most people.
• Focus increases your energy.
• Focus lifts you.
• Focus expands your life.
• Focus must be intentionally sustained.

Success is not an event; it is a process!!

How do we increase our focus?

• Be intentional- Make every moment count.
• Challenge your excuses.
• Don't let yesterday hijack your attention.
• Focus on the present.
• Stay focused on results.
• Develop and follow your priorities.
• Focus on your strengths and not your weaknesses.
• Delay reward until the JOB is done!

Make every action count! Be intentional!

"It takes ability plus focus to reach your potential and become the Controller you desire to be!!"- John Maxwell.

Focus on today! Focus on the NOW!! It is what we do as air traffic controllers!
