In years past, women have been celebrated for their ability to “multi-task” – cooking dinner while helping the kids complete their homework. And yet, to be successful in this day and age, we must move beyond multi-tasking – to multi-minding.
Our attention is often split between our different responsibilities: as an employee, as an intimate partner, as a son/daughter, as a sibling, as a friend. We also need to consistently shift our focus from: work, health, finances, spirituality...
Tomorrow’s leaders are able to toggle between different roles because they have different strategies for navigating.
AIMing to lead even more, Camille |

Have you ever been hit over the head with a simple, profound nugget? Over a year ago, a wise friend shared one such nugget with me.
The best you is all of you.
Too often in life, we separate parts of ourselves, bifurcating our lives and ultimately our power… We weaken ourselves when we separate the ‘work me’ from the ‘home me,’ from the ‘friend me,’ from the ‘lover me,’ from the ‘daughter me’ for the ‘athlete me’… We all have different roles that we play in life. They each bring us unique strengths.
AIMing to embrace all of me, Camille |

The “other” Little Black Book |

As an avid “GTDer” and raving fan of David Allen – I encourage everyone to get a little black book…. A little 3 x 5 notebook that you can carry anywhere, that you can capture all your brilliant ideas.
Not only will you capture all your brilliant insights to turn into action, you will be more present. When an idea pops in, you can capture it and have it for a later conversation.
AIMing to capture and re connect, Camille |

A dear friend and mentor, Frank Ball once said – “Insights without Actions are the Booby prize of Life.”
Think about the last time you had a great idea.
What did you do with it? How do you leverage your insights? AIMing for even more action, Camille |

Mastery is an “inside out process” – By first mastering our minds – we open the doors to excellence both personally and professionaly.
Take a moment to notice what your “distractions” of choice are? What would you need to do to “master your mind”? Where would you need to build additional discipline?
AIM to Awaken from the Inside Out, Camille |
