Strengthening self-leadership for lasting high performance and a calmer life balance | Personal & professional growth | Great leadership begin from within | 25 years in Comms & Leadership

Many women in leadership come to a point where the load grows faster than their capacity to carry it. 

Patience thins, confusion grows and you end up doing more and more… while feeling less and less like yourself.

I’m a leadership coach for emotionally intelligent women in demanding roles: 
The steady one, the strong one, the calm and capable one everyone relies on.

...all while you feel exhausted and find yourself wondering:

“Why am I this tired when I’m doing everything right?”
“How do I lead in a way that doesn’t drain me?”

I help you strengthen your self-leadership from the inside out — with boundaries, courage and practical tools — so you can lead in a way that feels grounded and genuinely YOU. This means doing the right things, for the right reasons, having energy left at the end of the day. 

Here are 3 ways we can work together:

I. Individual coaching or mentoring
Tailored support based on your needs, or my 7-week program for strengthening your mental, emotional and physical capacity.

II. Group program
Ledarprogrammet Perspeqtiv: a small-group leadership program for women leaders, on site in Malmö (Swedish).

Boundary Bootcamp: a 2 week challenge to help you set (and hold!) strong, clear boundaries and start prioritising yourself again. 

III. For teams & organisations
Team and leadership development, workshops and lectures.
Best discussed in conversation 🤓

With me, you get:
🌱 Grounded, research-backed methods blending coaching, neuroscience and emotional intelligence
🌱 A structured, warm space to reflect, grow and take real action
🌱 A certified ICF coach committed to your long-term capacity, not quick performance hacks

Based in Sweden. 
Working globally.
Languages: Swedish & English.

I help good girls become confident leaders of themselves and their teams | Coach for people-pleasers and perfectionists done being the good girl | Nästa grupp Ledarprogrammet Perspeqtiv startar februari 2026 🔭

Kolla dessa cheferna.
Första gruppen någonsin i Ledarprogrammet Perspeqtiv.

I fredags sågs vi för sjätte och sista gången. Då hyllade vi de kliv som var och en tagit under programmets tio månader. Både de egna och varandras.

För vi snackar KLIV, inte steg.

Det blir så i en liten, tajt grupp där man vågar lyssna inåt och tänka högt.

🎉Vi hyllade mod.
🎉Vi hyllade att stå i sina värderingar.
🎉Vi hyllade att våga utmana, att experimentera utan att veta hur det ska gå.

Jag är så stolt över dessa chefer, vår allra första "kull".

Jag är också stolt över att Elin och jag vågade säga "JA, vi kör”. Ibland vet man bara att något är rätt. Och då ska man köra.

Grattis till ”examen” Anna Wickholm Anna Assarsson Renée Sibolt Camilla Brink Schütz Tove Svärd Helene Jensen Vanja Söderblom och vi ses på julmingel i eftermiddag. Tillika första träffen med Nätverket Perspeqtiv ✨

🔭 Leder du andra och vill utvecklas i ditt ledarskap tillsammans med andra kvinnliga chefer? Då kan Perspeqtiv vara rätt plats.

How a red shirt helps me overcome self-doubt.
(a tip for all the good girls out there)

Research repeatedly shows that women carry far more of this than men:

Nasty thoughts sneaking up on us to tell us we’re 
> not good enough
> not smart enough
> not worthy of taking up space

Call them self-doubts or limiting beliefs — 
they’re ugly and paralyzing either way.

When those thoughts visit me, I know my confidence might shiver... which will change how I show up.

Enter: 
My red training shirt.
The one I wear when I lead my workout classes.

The gym floor is an arena where I feel fully confident.

I’ve been an instructor for 25 years. I know I’m good at it — and when I’m in that role, there's a certain energy and a certain vibe. A strong one.

So I visualize putting on that red shirt... 
...and with it, I shift myself into that energy. 

👊 Boom. I can do anything again.

✍🏼Tell me: what’s your “red shirt”, if you have one?
(If you don't, look in the comments and I'll guide you)

“I want to do this workshop every year.”
 
That's what a woman told me some weeks after doing my "design-the-new-year" workshop. 

It meant a lot that she said it — still makes me smile 😊
 
The good news?  
I 𝘥𝘰 run this workshop every year!  

More than 400 women have done it online already — many of them coming back again and again, to create a new, updated roadmap. 

Because what we do works. 

Every now and then women message me (or tell me, if I meet them) that they've reached a milestone or ticked something off that came to them during this workshop. 

Last week I opened registration for the 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗕𝗮𝗱 𝗚𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗚𝗶𝗿𝗹'𝘀 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲 𝗣𝗹𝗮𝗻.

In only 90 minutes, you’ll set your direction and craft a roadmap with the actions so that you can make 2026 a year with you firmly in the driver’s seat.

It’s free. It’s in English.  
You don’t have to speak — just show up and follow my guidance. Your roadmap is yours only. 

🗓️ Tuesday, January 6
⏰ 13.00-14.30 CET
💻 Online on Teams
🌟 Free to join

PS. I share the recording with all registered, so if you want to join but timing is bad — you can still do it on your own. 

📸 I run this workshop both online and IRL. Last Thursday I led it live at Börsdamerna. Thanks for having me!

This week it started. 

Someone mentioned Christmas gifts.
Another said her Christmas stress is ramping up. 

Soon all activities around school, sports, shows and concerts start lining up.... 

November and December are hectic. 

Sooo much that needs to be done and delivered.... 
You can feel it, right? 

But saying you don’t have time to take care of yourself,
is like saying you’re too busy driving to stop for gas.

To all busy, loyal, hardworking good girls who hold everything (and everyone) together:

If you want to feel less stressed, have more energy and actually enjoy the parts of life that matter most to you... 
...but feel you can't afford taking a break... 

...where will you end up? (hint: burnt out)

> Working more hours won’t make you less busy.
> Going nonstop won’t make you more productive.
> Saying YES to do more tasks won't create more hours in a day.

Just like stopping for gas is important,
so is stopping to recharge yourself. 

Even when life is busy.
E s p e c i a l l y when life is busy. 

If you read this and feel:
—Tired
—Tired of feeling tired
—Guilty taking time to rest 
—Constantly in production mode
—"I just have to finish this little thing too" 

>>> You need to stop for gas. NOW.

PS. I know that you know this already. And sometimes it's helpful with a little reminder 💛

It takes a village to raise a child, they say. 
Mine raised a very good girl. 

I learnt how to fit in long before I learnt how to be me. 

I'm done with those edits. 
The coming chapters look different.

Making a Good Girl

I thought I was being helpful.
It turned out I was standing in the way.

For a long time, I believed good leadership meant having the answers and always being available. 

That fixing things was the same as supporting. That stepping in with a solution was the best help. That getting back on track quickly was development. 

Until one day. 

A team member was stuck and came to ask about something. I immediately saw how we could solve it. It was simple – but I didn’t have the time to explain. 

So instead I asked: "What are your thoughts?"

Silence. I went back to what I was doing.

A little later, my colleague returned – with a plan. 
And it was better than mine 🌟 

I think that’s when it hit me.

Every time I stepped in to “help,” I was taking something away: 
> the belief in their own ability 
> the satisfaction of figuring it out yourself 
> the growth that comes from handling challenges

I was taking away opportunities to grow 😬

So I started doing things in a different way. Challenging and uncomfortable at first, no doubt: 

> I held back my answers
> Asked better (and more) questions
> Got more comfortable with being uncomfortable
> And resisted the urge to step in as some kind of problem-solving superhero (difficult for good girls like me) 

I learnt that I didn't have to carry everything. And I certainly didn't have to carry them. 

My version of being a helpful leader was my bad good girl stepping in. 

The real growth – for both me and the team – came when I started unlearning that.

Curious: what's a leadership lesson you've learnt from being "in it"?

“Next year will be different.”

I’ll slow down. I’ll start saying no. I’ll prioritise myself more.

Don’t know how many Decembers I’ve said that to myself.
And then… life happened:

High expectations, fully-packed calendar, delivering results, kids to activities, oh gosh any dinner ideas anyone…?

And oupppss I was back in the familiar good-girl-loop of being everything for everyone — except myself.

For me, it took a burnout to realise and change how I lead myself. 
I don’t want it to get that far for you. 
I want you to fast-track your learning and make better choices, sooner than I did. 

Let me help you a little bit: 
On January 6 I’ll run one of my favourite workshops.

✨ The Bad Good Girl’s 2026 Plan ✨

In this (free) workshop, you’ll
> Get clear on what matters to you: what you need, want and long for in 2026.
> Create a personal roadmap that puts you on the priority list (right where you belong BTW).
> Learn how to create more space for wellbeing, rest and a life you enjoy — without dropping your ambition.

Make 2026 the year you choose, not just cope.

Next year will be different 💪🏼

Hope to see you there!

We leak a lot of energy trying to control what we can’t.

Like the November weather. 
And the 'emotional weather' of others: 

> How people react
> Whether someone’s disappointed
> Predicting needs before they’re spoken

This is classic bad good girl behaviour:

Working overtime in places where our influence is exactly.... zero.

Like unpaid ’emotional meteorologists’. 

I write about this in today's newsletter. 

Enjoy your weekends everyone!

November is… special, isn’t it? Not in the magical way — more in the damp, dark, “why is the sky made of wet wool?” kind of way. Not my favourite mont

Open article: A Bad Good Girl's Take on November by Annika Mohlin 🌱 • 2 min read

Varför vänder ni er bara till kvinnor?

Det är en av frågorna vi brukar få om Ledarprogrammet Perspeqtiv.

Svaret:
Så länge det ser ut som det gör i företagsledningar och bolagsstyrelser vill vi göra vad vi kan för att boosta och stärka kvinnliga ledare.

Perspeqtiv är förstås bara en pusselbit bland många. 

Ett mer jämställt och emotionellt intelligent samhälle kräver dialog och förändring på flera nivåer. Vi fokuserar på att stötta kvinnor i att stärka sitt ledarskap och sin kapacitet, samtidigt som vi hejar på alla – kvinnor och män – som driver utvecklingen från andra håll.

Vi brukar få fler frågor: 

— Behöver man ha direktrapporterande för att vara med?
— Gör ni Perspeqtiv på engelska?
— Hur länge ska man ha varit chef? 
— Tänker ni starta en online-grupp någon gång?
— Kan ni köra det här programmet inhouse bara för oss?

Bläddra i dokumentet om du är nyfiken på svaren 🤓

📅 Vi startar 3 nya grupper under 2026, den första i februari. Platserna har börjat gå åt. 
💌 Sugen på att vara med? Hör av dig till mig eller Elin på DM eller i mail.

Allt du skulle vilja veta om Perspeqtiv, men varit för skraj att fråga om

”Jag har varit chef i drygt två år. Det är först nu som jag känner mig som en ledare.”

Helene hade sitt team utspritt över hela Sverige och dåligt samvete för att hon inte räckte till.

”Jag vill vara en närvarande ledare. Men hur är jag det på distans?”

Det var utmaningen hon tog med sig till Perspeqtiv. Engagerad, nyfiken och trött på att försöka vara överallt samtidigt.

Ganska snart insåg Helene hur hon kan vara närvarande även på distans.

Efter några månader hade hon hittat sitt angreppssätt, sin struktur för hur hon leder sitt team; både gruppen som helhet och var och en individuellt.

Helene är en sådan som verkligen gör det hon säger att hon ska göra. Hon har reflekterat, testat, justerat och till slut hittat sitt sätt. Med ett helt annat lugn nu än för nio månader sedan.

Och något som alla i gruppen märkt:

Hennes generositet. Hon delar med sig, stöttar, speglar, bjuder på sina lärdomar och hjälper andra att växa. Är inte det ledarskap i sig? 😉

Imorgon har vi sjätte och sista träffen med den allra första gruppen i Ledarprogrammet Perspeqtiv. Tusen tack Helene för att du varit med och allt du bidragit med. Det ska bli så roligt att följa din fortsatta framfart!

🔭 Helene är en av de mer "nya" cheferna. De flesta har mellan 3-10 års erfarenhet. Medan några har över 15 år - och matar sin fortsatta nyfikenhet på att växa som ledare och människa.

Busy day today? Every day busy up until Christmas? 

Here’s how I stay calm and focused, even with a super tight schedule. 

Because it’s nothing but a myth that working nonstop will help you get more done (spoiler alert: it won’t)

The best way to keep doing high quality work is to: 
✅ Take a break

Try one of these today: 

🌱 Look out a window
Notice what you see — colors, shapes, shadows, textures... 
Using your senses helps your mind slow down and stay in the moment. 

🌱 Think of three things you’re grateful for
Say them out loud or write them down. 
Gratitude helps to boost your mood and will make you feel happier! 

🌱 Step outside
Take a 20-minute walk—or even stand outside for 5 minutes. 
Fresh air clears your mind and gives you new energy. 

Think you don’t have time? 
You DO. 

Taking short breaks will make both you and your work better. 

You'll feel better → your work will be better. 

AND: you'll have time and energy left for the things (and people ❤️) that matter most to you. 

Need support in making more space for you and what you love?

I can help.

No matter age, industry or nationality, the women leaders I coach are talking about the same things.

Since recap and wrap season is here –
these are the patterns I'm noticing, wrapped up in a timely, seasonal outfit 😉

Curious: Does any of this feel familiar to you? 


PS. The rage-bait age thing? Yes, it's in the carousel too. 

PPS. I do my last coaching session for 2025 today. 
Thanks everyone who've trusted me to support you with your leadership, well-being, confidence... well: life 💛

• Clarity in ambiguity → distilling complexity into direction.
• Vision with discipline → building strategies that endure.
• People first → growing resilient, high-performance teams.

Pasi Pietilä

When execution slips, most leaders react in the same way... 
more meetings, more tracking, ... ending up creating more noise.
 
Creating more “structure” in the “crisis” is the leadership equivalent for the screaming... And more you create the structure to help delivering results, the louder you scream.
 
But 𝐬𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐥𝐨𝐮𝐝𝐞𝐫 𝐝𝐨𝐞𝐬𝐧’𝐭 𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐠𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐬 - 𝐢𝐭 𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐬 𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞.
People don’t move faster because you push harder.
 
They move faster when they 𝑏𝑒𝑙𝑖𝑒𝑣𝑒 in the goal, understand 𝑤ℎ𝑦 it matters, and trust the system around them.
 
Execution isn’t a volume problem - it’s a connection problem.
Leaders who sense friction, remove barriers, and invite ownership don’t need to yell.
The system speaks for itself.

They say: “Startup life is hard.”
Me: “Heck… let’s add an eMBA on top of it.”

Not because I enjoy the pain (don’t trust 𝑎𝑙𝑙  the rumors 😊), but because growth rarely fits neatly into a calendar. 
It happens when you intentionally stretch your capacity, your perspectives, and your system of thinking.

𝐒𝐨 𝐈’𝐦 𝐞𝐱𝐜𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐈 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐛𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐚𝐜𝐜𝐞𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐨 𝐐𝐮𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐜’𝐬 𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐄𝐱𝐞𝐜𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐌𝐁𝐀 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐦 - a modern, flexible eMBA that actually works alongside the controlled chaos of building a company.
 
Why this?
Because the principles I write about (e.g., Iterative Planning, Developing Teams, Sensing and Gently Guidance, ...) are only as strong as my willingness to apply them to myself.

This program forces me to do exactly that... to sharpen how I think, decide, collaborate, and lead...
Not “someday,” but now, in the middle of real constraints, real deadlines, and real uncertainty.

And honestly… that’s the point.
Progress rarely comes from waiting for the perfect moment.
It comes from creating forward motion while things are messy, complicated, and unpredictable. (And 𝑒𝑠𝑝𝑒𝑐𝑖𝑎𝑙𝑙𝑦 𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑛.)

So here’s to the next chapter...
One part structured learning, 
One part startup chaos, 
and one part the ongoing experiment of becoming a better leader…

If nothing else, it will make for some great frameworks.

I have seen many post how the reach on LinkedIn has been reduced during 2025. 
Personally, that’s not a surprise - I have been spending less time here, so that’s naturally visible on the reach. 

However, I feel that peoples focus span is reducing - The amount of information (let it be LinkedIn content, or data, or you name it) has been increased. 
Personally I blame and thank AI from that one. 
And humans response in natural ways - When there is more information, we screen faster... 
If information does not resonate quickly, we move forward. 
 
This naturally bring me into two different topics... 
(1) We need more time for deep-work. That’s granted and that would be worth of own post series as well as own article. (Maybe later – I don’t have now for that one 😉)
(2) The second point is how quickly we need to grab the attention. In a world overflowing with updates, notifications, and meetings, attention isn’t something you earn later - it’s something you either capture or lose instantly.
 
That’s not only about SoMe or advertisement... That applies also to leadership just as much as communication.
When you speak, share a plan, or kick off a project - your team decides in seconds whether to 𝑙𝑒𝑎𝑛 𝑖𝑛 𝑜𝑟 𝑡𝑢𝑛𝑒 𝑜𝑢𝑡.
 
If your message isn’t clear, if your direction isn’t focused, energy starts to scatter.
And once focus is gone, momentum follows.

Because you don’t get 3 seconds to grab attention.
You get 3 seconds to earn 𝑎𝑙𝑖𝑔𝑛𝑚𝑒𝑛𝑡.

In real world, the things that matter the most is rarely the plan itself... It’s the alignment, the trust, and the ownership that carry it.

Why Execution Fails - and It’s Not Because of the Plan

“Plans only exist to show how far behind we are.”
That was a statement from ex-colleague. 

But there is a truth behind that statement, that has bigger impact than you think. 

Let's be clear.... A plan isn’t there to predict the future.
A good plan is there to 𝐟𝐨𝐜𝐮𝐬 𝐮𝐬, 𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐧 𝐮𝐬, and 𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐮𝐬 for the messy reality that follows.

Here’s what great planning 𝑎𝑐𝑡𝑢𝑎𝑙𝑙𝑦 does:
𝟏. 𝐀 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐧 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐜𝐞𝐬 𝐟𝐨𝐜𝐮𝐬.
It requires us to choose what matters most - and, just as importantly, what doesn’t.
Without a plan, everything feels urgent. 
With a plan, priorities become visible.
 
𝟐. 𝐀 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐧 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐬 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬.
Not in a micromanaging way, but in a “this is what we think will happen and when” way.
When the plan is built on top of 𝐦𝐚𝐣𝐨𝐫 𝐨𝐛𝐣𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐬 (you might also call those milestones), not endless tasks, everyone knows what the destination looks like.
 
𝟑. 𝐀 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐧 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐬 𝐛𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐢𝐭’𝐬 𝐜𝐨-𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝.
The strongest plans aren’t created in isolation.
They are shaped with the teams who will actually deliver the work.
Leadership sets the direction; teams shape the path.

𝟒. 𝐀 𝐠𝐨𝐨𝐝 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐧 𝐛𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐬 𝐜𝐥𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐟𝐥𝐞𝐱𝐢𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲.
It paints the big picture, outlines the key milestones, and leaves enough space for the inevitable changes, turns, discoveries, (you know... the unknowns) and creative problem-solving that happen during execution.


At end of the day, execution 𝑖𝑠 messy.
And that’s okay.

A plan is not a promise - it’s a shared understanding.
A living tool that helps teams stay aligned, make trade-offs, communicate clearly, and adjust intelligently as reality unfolds.

So yes, sometimes plans do show how far behind we are.
But without them, we wouldn’t even know what “behind” means.

𝑺𝒕𝒐𝒑 𝒕𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒊𝒕 𝒍𝒊𝒌𝒆 𝒐𝒏𝒆.
 
If you’re leading teams or driving complex work, you can’t keep everything in your head... And to be clear, you shouldn’t try.

The better approach is to bring a systematic way to operate. 
A process, 
Tools 
and Methods. 

In practice it all starts with simple things.

Leading to big impact --> 𝑭𝒓𝒆𝒆 𝒖𝒑 𝒚𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝒎𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒂𝒍 𝒃𝒂𝒏𝒅𝒘𝒊𝒅𝒕𝒉.
 
When the details live in a system (not within your head), your mind is free to do what it’s actually good at:
•  Seeing patterns....  or the lack of them
•  Noticing changes and emerging risks
•  Making sharp decisions (and changing the plan)
•  Responding fast when things shift (𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑦 𝑤𝑖𝑙𝑙)
 
Externalize the chaos so you can stay focused on what truly moves the work forward.

But the 𝑓𝑖𝑟𝑠𝑡 10% and the 𝑙𝑎𝑠𝑡 10% that are the most challenging ones.

Those are the moments where projects move from intention → 𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑙𝑖𝑡𝑦…
and where reality finally has to become 𝑔𝑜𝑜𝑑 𝑒𝑛𝑜𝑢𝑔ℎ 𝑡𝑜 𝑠ℎ𝑖𝑝.

People talk a lot about “doing the work,” but here’s the truth:
𝐌𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤 𝐠𝐞𝐭𝐬 𝐬𝐭𝐮𝐜𝐤 𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐛𝐞𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐞𝐧𝐝.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭 𝟏𝟎% is where procrastination shows up.
Starting means making decisions, managing trade-offs, framing the problem, choosing a path.

It means stepping into the unknown – to the place where we often discover how wrong our assumptions in the plan actually were.
It’s mentally expensive.
This is where teams spin, delay, or over-plan instead of taking the first step.

 
𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐥𝐚𝐬𝐭 𝟏𝟎% is where Parkinson’s Law takes over.
Work expands, polish becomes perfection, and “almost done” stretches forever.

It’s where accountability matters most - where someone has to call it done, even when not every piece matches the initial expectations.
It’s also where we must once again admit that some of our assumptions were wrong.
Finishing requires acceptance - declaring something “good enough” to move forward.
And for high-performers and high-tech teams, that’s often the hardest muscle to flex.

What’s interesting is that these pains show up everywhere:
Small tasks. Big programs.
 
Even when you work iteratively.
Iteration doesn’t eliminate the 10% + 10% problem.
It just slices it into more frequent cycles - easier to face, but still very real.

The start and end, sums up...

But that’s the 20% of execution that drives the 80% of the results. 

The good news?
Once you recognize the pattern, you can design for it:
 • Reduce friction at the start.
 • Set explicit “good enough” criteria for the end. – And be ready to review those criteria as needed.
 • Build momentum in the messy middle.
 • Celebrate progress, not perfection.

Progress isn’t just about what happens between 10% and 90%.
It’s about learning how to cross the threshold…

I don’t write much from my personal life but sometimes the stories are too good to ignore... And this is one of those.
 
For last Friday, the younger son had one *𝑠𝑖𝑚𝑝𝑙𝑒* task... 
Bring home his schoolbook so we could prepare for an upcoming exam.

To be fair, he’s doing well - grades are good, even if he doesn’t always do 𝑒𝑣𝑒𝑟𝑦 homework assignment the way I would hope.

Well, he comes home on Friday… 
We check that new homework are done and I continue working.... (without remembering the whole upcoming exam and the book that he should have token to home...) 

Then suddenly he comes back to my room with his phone in his hand and starts; 
“Dad, I forgot the exam book to the school”... 

At this point my first reaction was the human one and I almost screamed “𝑊𝑎𝑖𝑡… 𝑤𝑒 𝑟𝑒𝑚𝑖𝑛𝑑𝑒𝑑 𝑦𝑜𝑢 𝑚𝑢𝑙𝑡𝑖𝑝𝑙𝑒 𝑡𝑖𝑚𝑒𝑠. 𝐻𝑜𝑤 𝑑𝑖𝑑 𝑦𝑜𝑢 𝑛𝑜𝑡 𝑏𝑟𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑏𝑜𝑜𝑘?”.... 

Luckily I was able to hold it back for a moment because he continued. 
“It’s fine, I got pictures from my friend of all the chapters we need to study.”

I did took a deep breath and though about the topic.
Sure, he 𝑓𝑎𝑖𝑙𝑒𝑑 𝑖𝑛 ℎ𝑖𝑠 𝑝𝑟𝑖𝑚𝑎𝑟𝑦 𝑡𝑎𝑠𝑘 - 
But he 𝒅𝒊𝒅𝒏’𝒕 𝒇𝒂𝒊𝒍 𝒊𝒏 𝒉𝒊𝒔 𝒐𝒃𝒋𝒆𝒄𝒕𝒊𝒗𝒆𝒔:
Being able to study for the exam during the weekend. 

He owned the goal - figured out how it could be archived. 
And he delivered the outcome in his own way.

Who am I to judge the method when the result *and the ownership* was there?

So... I thanked him for taking responsibility, and over the weekend we studied the chapters from the photos. 
And it worked perfectly.


𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠?
𝑇𝑟𝑢𝑒 𝑜𝑤𝑛𝑒𝑟𝑠ℎ𝑖𝑝 𝑚𝑎𝑡𝑡𝑒𝑟𝑠 𝑚𝑜𝑟𝑒 𝑡ℎ𝑎𝑛 𝑓𝑜𝑙𝑙𝑜𝑤𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑝𝑙𝑎𝑛.

When people take responsibility for the outcome, they’ll find a way - sometimes a better one than the plan we had in mind.
