Everyone else is doing it; it’s all they talk about, and it feels like they are doing it way better than we are.
Being an ex-teacher, I have had to address this question. I even had training. Now, if you have kids, you know teenagers love to talk a good game. No one wants to be left out. But when teenagers (and CEOs) feel safe, they let their guard down and it all comes out…
The funny thing is the AI talk I hear from the CEOs I work with is the exact same. The same embarrassment “We should be doing it more” The uncertainty: “Are we doing it right?” Peer pressure: “I saw on the internet that you do it this way.”
And I fall back to my sex ed training.
The truth? It’s personal.
No two people are the same. You do it when it feels like the right time for you, and you do it in a way that suits you. Don’t feel overly influenced by others. Experiment, try things, see what works. The more you do it, the better you will get, the more natural it will feel. Don’t feel forced into it, because it won’t work as well. Find an experienced partner you trust. Overall, you need to find your own way to do it. One that is true to you. Because when you do get it right it’s magical.
