I nearly didn't take the time off as there's so much going on at the moment, but I am so glad I did. I used it to reset brain, my nervous system, my focus and my intentions.
I had a lot of time to reflect over that week and the thing that came up consistently for me was......
"Am I playing to win, or am I playing to not lose....?"
This game of entrepreneurism is a tough one, especially with the pressures that have been sent our way over the last 3 years. It's easy to fall into the survival trap, where the mindset, goals, actions and therefore results are all unconsciously geared towards "not losing".
This is a world apart from the mindset, goals, actions and therefore results that occur when we're playing the game to win. This is something I'll be bringing into Success Groups for the members this next two weeks.
I've found a consistent formula that works for me in achieving results:
1. Set a crystal clear goal or goals and announce it out loud with intent (to the Universe or to your own unconscious, whichever works for you).
2. Have a copy of your goal(s) somewhere visible where you can connect with them daily (PostIt note on computer, something on wall....)
3. Make a plan to achieve the goal. This should drill right down from how you think you can achieve this to the detailed activity that you need to take each day to make it work.
4. Execute on the plan with absolute focus and faith you can achieve it.
5. Believe it's coming but let go of the outcome. Sounds counter-productive but if we hold on too tight the magic cannot happen. (Magic does happen consistently, when you expect it to)
6. Be open to aligned opportunities but don't get seduced by shiny things.
7. Ask for help when you get stuck so you're not staying in that space for too long.
8. Keep going and never give up, right until the very last minute.
Whilst I appreciate some of this sounds a bit woo-woo, its worked for me more times than I care the remember, and I've seen it work countless times for our members.
The key here is having the mindset to underpin it all.
Play to win. You've got this.
