A reminder and a double-click.
"Where attention grows, neural firing flows and neural connection grows.: (Quote by Daniel Siegel)
Leadership development, personal growth, meaningful and positive change does not happen by accident, osmosis or magic. Meaningful change and growth happens by a delicious choice of grit.
Focus on seeing the alternative.
Determination
Perseverance.
Tenacity.
Fortitude.
Resolve.
Courage.
Steadfastness.
Leadership development, personal growth, meaningful and positive change does not happen by accident, osmosis or magic. Meaningful change and growth happens by a delectable choice of actions for a better tomorrow.
Focus on seeing the best in yourself and in others.
New metaphors.
Solid grounding practises.
Releasing current narratives and perspectives.
Making healthier choices every single day.
Practising how you want to be.
Mourning for what is lost.
Daydreaming of deeply longed-for aspirations.
Meeting new people.
Meditation and prayer.
Reacquainting yourself with your sense of humour, lightness and ease.
Grab one thought / action that is you want to change. Pay attention to it in thought and action for 63 days.
Intentionality and focus over time will serve to rewire what you have embodied, at a cellular level.
This is lasting, sustainable change.
Notice. Name. Choose.
Lead yourself well.
Saturday check-in with your big, beautiful, brilliant life.
(It is, you know. Your life is all of those descriptors.)
Have you been too busy or too distracted or too zoomed in to what is right in front of you that you have neglected time to zoom out to the bigger vision of who you are, and who you are becoming.
Please, never lose sight of the need to check in with who you are (includes values, meaning, purpose, strengths, love language, working genius, preferences of environment where you can be your favourite self, how you talk to yourself, and how you want to keep growing and maybe about a dozen more details).
Okay, that is way TOO MUCH processing for a Saturday morning, yes?
How about this? Just for this Saturday, notice what fills you and what depletes you and savour the moments of 'filling'.
In summary, you are the Chief Executive Officer of your own life. Take time to execute what matters to your soul.
Lead yourself well.
