The Three Circles Framework That Maximized My Career Impact

Описание: Stephen Covey's CIA Model is a three-circle framework that helps you identify exactly where to focus your energy for maximum career impact and minimum overwhelm.

In this video, I break down the Circle of Control, which covers what you directly manage, the Circle of Influence, which covers what you can shape through relationships and consistent action, and the Circle of Concern, which is everything that drains your energy without producing results. I also share the Monday sorting system I've been using for two years, which has significantly reduced my stress and doubled the results I can actually measure.

If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or working incredibly hard without seeing results that match your effort, this framework will show you exactly where your energy is leaking and how to redirect it toward what actually matters.

You'll discover the hidden reason talented professionals burn out. At the same time, less skilled people seem to advance effortlessly, why trying to control too much actually makes your influence shrink instead of expand, the Monday sorting system that can free up fifteen or more hours in your week, real examples from finance, consulting, and product management roles, and how to apply this framework no matter what your role or industry level happens to be.
