Creating Forward Momentum #1
Have you ever been stuck? Have you ever had the distinct feeling that you are in a rut, maybe even mired down?
How do you create forward momentum again? How do you get unstuck? The ideas over the next several weeks will serve to generate ideas to help you take action from your current situation. There is always a next right thing to do, even in and especially in seasons of adversity.
Beyond your first move, you want to turn those best steps into your new normal. Aristotle put it this way, “We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.”
Could you pinpoint one habit that is contributing to negative results and trade it for a good habit that generates positive results? It might look likeā¦
Turning “I think this is good enough” into “How can I overdeliver?”
Trading defeating self-talk for encouraging self-talk.
Moving on from the default of finding the worst in people to seeking out the best.
The list is endless. Your list only needs to contain one thing. What one bad tendency can you stop in its tracks and turn into a good habit?
Worth Repeating
We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.
-Aristotle
