Be The Best At Things Which Require No Talent
Mar 20, 2025"Be The Best At Things Which Require No Talent" - Warren Gatland
High performing reformer instructors consistently do all the small things right:
✅ Set the standard in a clean & organised studio
✅ Write out class plans for their next shift
✅ Make time for client connection
✅ Put in the hours on the reformer
✅ Always a reliable team member
Every one of these listed outputs requires effort, but do not require talent.
Doing every aspect of the role to the best of your ability is a powerful habit. Taking pride in every thing you do will elevate your carrier trajectory.
"You can have more than you've got because you can become more than you are" - Jim Rohn
To become more than you are you must be willing to put in the effort. Start small. Do every task to the best of your ability. If you are looking to become a studio manger, instructor mentor, studio owner etc, these avenues for development are often given to those who are the most responsible, reliable and accountable.
Leadership is a behaviour
Leaders take responsibility for themselves and others. You don't have to be in a leadership role to be a leader. Bring your focus to everything thats under your control. Make it a habit to do those tasks to the best of your ability and watch the magic happen.
