What is your personal success profile?
Whatever actions, people, places or activities that always make you feel your best shouldn't be optional; they should be non-negotiable aspects of your routine.
Are you prioritizing the source of your magic?
Whatever you’re doing that helps you show up in your very best form, are you intentional about doing that on a daily, weekly or monthly basis?
I’ve learned over the past few years that we have to prioritize the activities that bring us focus, joy and energy in order to show up as our best selves and therefore reach our most important goals.
I learned the hard way that we have to hold ourselves accountable and meet our own basic requirements if we want to feel fulfilled.
Here's a breakdown of how to do that:
Step 1 - Think about a key activity that brings you joy, energy, and helps you to focus. This is one of your basic requirements for optimal performance.
Note - typically when you’re not able to experience a basic requirement regularly enough, you may feel cranky, overwhelmed, irritated, frustrated, confused or indecisive.
Step 2 - Assess how often you’re experiencing your basic requirement for optimal performance. How often are you doing it or getting it? Are you making it a priority, or are you being like I was and leaving it to chance because you take your ability to access this basic requirement for granted. Be honest.
Step 3 - Make your basic requirement a priority, and put it on your calendar. I’ve started with a daily window for thinking and writing in the morning. My goal is to spend 30 minutes, but as long as I’m doing it regularly, I’m excited to see how the re-introduction of daily writing improved the quality of my life.
Questions to Consider:
What are the key ingredients for your very best day, and for your very best week? For you to show up as your very best self?
What actions evoke the feelings that are priceless to you?
What situations and people evoke the feelings that are priceless to you?
What work would you do for free because the sensation of doing the work is priceless to you and core to your life purpose?
