The 5 steps to continue to grow
The mind is like a rubber band: you can stretch it but it will always come back to where it feels most comfortable. We have to be present to that, because the higher you are, the bigger the fall can be. The fastest way to fall is to think you’ve made it.
What keeps me going is knowing that every day I am close to getting comfortable again. So I push myself because I don’t want to go back. I’ve come way too far to go back to the old version of myself. To avoid going backward, you have to continually stretch yourself.
5 Steps to make sure you keep growing.
1- Acknowledge what you need in order to get where you want to be.
What do you really need? You think it’s more money or more business, but if you get more money, is that what you need? You need leadership. What is holding you back is not your ability, but you are too afraid to face who you need to become. You’re afraid to face the version of you who can put in the work.
2- Focus on a mission that is bigger than you.
You will do more for others than you will for yourself. Your life will either be someone’s inspiration or excuse. Don’t get bogged down in the small details when you should be focusing on the bigger picture. Who will be impacted by your growth? If you figure out how to solve your problems, who will benefit? Your life will either be someone’s inspiration or their excuse.
3- Connection is the key to exponential growth.
Don’t be attached to how much time it will take to achieve your vision, look for quality people who will help you achieve your goals. We lack connection because we are constantly living in our heads. We lose connection when we forget who we are. You are a king. Nobody is going to take anything from you because you give freely. When you live in abundance, you can give without getting attached to getting something back.
4- Consistency will keep you from going backward.
Do the work even when you don’t feel like doing it. Growth is inevitable when you are constantly looking to improve. Don’t drop your guard just because life is not hard anymore. When things get easy, that’s the time to expand.
5- Play the long game.
Don’t dwell on the short-term losses. We are all going to have losses, but they are short-term. When you play the long game, every loss is a learning experience. Create the pull by focusing on the long-term vision. Push yourself through the hard times by remembering that they are only temporary.
Your mind is always looking to go back into survival mode. It’s easier to be comfortable and safe because your mind knows how to live there. Make growth and expansion your new comfort zone. Stretch your mind’s vision so much that you feel out of alignment if you go back to the way it used to be.
