For many of us, the way we ultimately avoid so many things is to focus on others’ problems instead of our own because we don’t feel worthy of success, love, accomplishment, or forgiveness. But we need to remember that we need to help ourselves in order to help others. Welcome back to another solo episode of The Tactical Leader! Today I'm sharing my takeaways from last Monday’s episode with the amazing and inspiring Jordan Montgomery, the owner of Montgomery Companies, and a highly regarded performance coach and keynote speaker whose clients include business executives, sales organizations, and entrepreneurs.

[11:50 - 12:36] Closing Segment What to expect this Friday with Jordan Montgomery
Key Quote/s:
“I've fallen so hard in that trap of trying to draw a boundary of, ‘My time is precious, don't waste it,’ That it’s caused me so much grief. Because then if I feel like my time is being wasted, I shut down, I'm done. I'm no longer available for dinner, I'm no longer available for coaching, I'm no longer available to be present.” - Zack Knight
“That's one thing I'm really big on is avoiding showing up available in ways that I should show up available. Avoiding inner work. Focusing on myself, I've avoided it for a long time because I didn't think I was worthy of it.” - Zack Knight
“Surround yourself with people that love you enough to be honest, that care about you enough to tell you the truth. Those are the people that are challenging me today.” - Zack Knight
