Episode notes
In this episode, I continue my talk about how we can take some great information from John Maxwell's book "Success is a Choice” and apply it to air traffic control.
This time I go through the section on taking initiative, or in ATC terms, "Taking Control."
I talk about:
- Taking control is the first step to anywhere you want to go.
- Taking control closes the door to fear.
- Taking control opens the door to opportunity.
- Taking control eases life's difficulties.
- Taking control is often the difference between success and failure.
Then I looked at what happens when you don't take control:
- You fail to see the consequences of inaction
- You want someone else to motivate you.
- You look for the perfect time to act.
- You like tomorrow better than today.
