One of our favourite books to recommend is The Art of Leading Yourself by Randi B Noyes.
Here's one of the many reviews of the book found on Amazon (this one by Midwest Book Review):
"The Art Of Leading Yourself: Tap The Power Of Your Emotional Intelligence by Randi B. Noyes (President, Leadership International, Inc.) is a straightforward and practical guide to the art and science of taking charge of one's own life, and putting one's emotions to best use, rather than being ruled by them. Individual chapters address the importance of taking responsibility for one's own life, balancing family conflicts with emotional disturbances, step-by-step exercises to managing one's feelings, anecdotes of these teachings in practice, and a great deal more. The Art Of Leading Yourself is very highly recommended reading and a welcome addition to self-help, self-improvement reference collections."
And here are some questions for you to consider:
Coaching Exercises
1. Define for yourself the term "self-leadership". What does this mean for you at a personal level?
2. What would it mean to you to gain control of your emotions versus being ruled by them? (You may feel you're already doing this so describe what this means for you now and how you do it.)
3. What would it mean to you to take responsibility for your own life? (You may feel you're already doing this so describe what this means for you now and how you do it.)
4. With respect to your thoughts on these questions what are you committing to now?
