1. Tendency to Overcommit
Before SuperME: Andy’s passion and energy often led him to take on more projects than time realistically allowed. This sometimes meant stress, delays, or a feeling of being “spread too thin.”
SuperME Shift: Purpose helped him focus only on commitments aligned with his deeper calling. He now channels energy where it truly matters, and when he says “yes,” it’s backed by his full presence — making his “yes” incredibly valuable.
Recently, Andy said no to a project that does not align with his value of helping others.
2. Perfectionist Drive
Before SuperME: Andy’s high standards could lead to over-editing, reworking endlessly, and hesitation to launch ideas until they felt “perfect.”
SuperME Shift: He embraced vulnerability and authenticity, realising that people connect more with realness than perfection. This shift allows him to deliver faster, test ideas in the real world, and inspire others with his authenticity.
One recent example, he stopped scripting for his keynote speech and let the ideas from the room.
3. Results-Oriented Pressure
Before SuperME: As a trainer and ex-corporate leader, Andy was deeply focused on measurable results, sometimes creating pressure for himself and others. For example, he would persist in asking questions even when the participants do not have ready answers.
SuperME Shift: Gratitude helped him celebrate the process, not just the outcomes. By valuing the journey, his work became more enjoyable, relationships deepened, and results flowed naturally.
Instead of asking questions, he paused, look at the participants in the eyes, and just ask, "Any questions?"
