How Being Intellectually Lazy Makes You a Poor Leader

Oh, no! I'm a lazy thinker!
Nobody thinks that they are intellectually lazy, but you won't know until you examine the evidence. Here are the signs.
"Research" is sound bites
Details, schemetails. A second hand quote or line or two will do!
Don't consider you could be wrong
You're overconfident and a bit too sure.
You fall back on habits
If it worked before, it will work again!
You don't question your beliefs
You know what you know. That's all there is to it.
You're an emotional thinker
If it feels right, it is right!
You follow the herd
If everyone else thinks this way, so should I! 10,000 lemmings can't be wrong.
Okay, I'm Lazy. Now What?
Many people don't think of themselves as leaders, but we're all the leader of ourselves. If you don't have a handle on that, your life is probably a wreck. Lazy thinking leads to disastrous outcomes, unhappiness, inefficiency, and unnecessary stress.
How to Turn Around Lazy Thinking
You are the CEO of your life experience. Your happiness and success are up to you. If you're not thinking wisely, your results probably aren't what you hoped for.
The great news about that is that that means you are in total control, so you can make a change! This is actually part of my Let It Go Now program. If you'd like help with this, check us out here.
