If you are a bit like me, you simply love life. I am not saying you are necessarily loving your current life

 

Make yourself a priority

There might be room for growth. But knowing you are in control of your life, and the direction you are heading in is great is not it? You are the CEO of your life.

 

Getting to know yourself

Last time I spoke about how getting to know yourself better helps you to build a platform for personal growth. I offered some questions to ask yourself. You read all about it here.

To get to know yourself starts with asking questions. It is a great way to explore and investigate what you truly want in life and where you are currently at.

 

3 sources of information

To get to know yourself better, you have three sources of information:

  • YOU
  • your friends, family and colleagues
  • formal tools of assessment

 

Your board of directors

If you see yourself as the CEO of your life, you might see your friends, family and colleagues as your board of directors. They are either here to cheer you on or to guide you into a different direction.

Your board of directors is also a good source to ask in-depth questions that can help you to get an even more clear picture of where you are at momentarily.

 

Average of 5 people you are with

You are the average of the 5 people you spend the most time with. Motivational speaker Jim Rohn stated this. It means that the 5 people you spend the most time with, influence you the most. They will change how you feel about yourself, how you see yourself and whether or not you are capable of reaching the goals you have set for yourself.

 

You are influenced by your surroundings

The principle is simple and if you take a moment to think about it and it’s very true.

If I look at my clients, it is also the number one reason why people deviate from the path they had envisioned for themselves.

It is the reason why people get frustrated: they wanted this thing more than anything (a successful business, a promotion, a more balanced lifestyle) yet their surroundings were so demanding that they settled for less.

All is well for everyone – except you

They made sure that their surroundings where ok, looked after. And in the process, they lost their mojo, the urgency to go after their dreams. Sometimes it happens on purpose: my kid needs me now, my husband got a new job, we are moving – so I will work on my goals later (or never).

It doesn’t make it less frustrating. And it is not necessary either. You can have it all. Still attend to your surroundings yet continue to work on your goals.

 

Go after what YOU want

If you feel it is YOUR time now, to take control over your life and to start working towards your goals. I applaud you. This is the starting point. I also know how easy it is to get sidetracked. To not make yourself a priority as your family needs you. Keep working crazy hours as you feel that is the only way you can run your business. Listen to your boss/wife/client more than you do to yourself.

But you do not have to. You can be a great person who cares about other’s needs and still work on your own. You can be amazing at your job, and still go home early and have dinner on time. You can work out and still have a fulfilling career. Want to know how? How you can have it all? I invite you to joing my FREE challenge: “How to have it all”.

P.S.: Some would say fulfill your destiny.

I always struggle a bit with the word destiny, it seems so “big and over compassing it all”. It makes me feel trapped in a way, and freedom is what I love more than anything else.
