How to make progress everyday and leave the worry behind
How to make progress everyday and leave the worry behindHow to make progress everyday and leave the worry behindWhat does everyday progress even mean?Every day progress is really about living yur best life. Fluffy, right? Well, yeah. But thats the 30,000-foot view. I think about this because recently, someone asked me how did I know I was ready to do the work that I love to do. I said,Because Im proud of the life I live each day and I stick to my values and principles and try to do mybest.You have to keep it simple. Thats how you make progress. Thats the magic for how you keep going with consistency each day. While I do believe in taking a day off here and there, there also shouldnt be any off days in terms of making progress.Follow Ladders on FlipboardFollow Ladders magazines on Flipboard covering Happiness, Productivity, Job Satisfaction, Neuroscience, and moreThink of this in the context of always wanting to stick to your values, how you define success and how you want to make you r mark on the world.Seeing successful, happy and fulfilled people reminds me that theres so much consistency to what they do. Theres progress each day. In how they love and treat their husband or wife.How they love their children. Whether theyre legitimately becoming more mentally, spiritually, emotionally and physically stronger and prepared to meet every new task and challenge in front of them.Thats beautiful stuff. It takes foresight, self-awareness and a mindset of a winner.And lets be honest- it takes sacrifice. Often times, when we keep focusing on the things that it takes to be the best in what we do, we recognize that we sacrifice in other areas. And the truth is, while we know in our heart that giving up these lesser options is the right thing to do, that doesnt make it easy.There are temptations to give in. To compromise our values or simply our daily routine or list of things to do. Please know, sometimes repeating mistakes of the past happens.Doing the wrong thing, while knowing youre doing the wrong thing isnt good. But it shouldnt mean that you blame yourself and put yourself in some personal prison. All the self-condemnation in the world will do you no good.Were human. As a friend once told me, Give yourself some grace.Were going to screw up and part of progress- yes, for real- is actually growing and picking yourself up from the space of adversity and stumbles.So much of everyday consistency and progress for me is tied to having a plan. Having big goals, wanting big results and following the process to get there. This process is what I help coaching clients with every day. This is where the real battle for progress is won.I also encourage everyone to follow your intuition. Follow your heart. It has this unbelievable knack of letting you know what it really means to do whats right FOR YOU. Listen to that voice inside of you and trust yourself.When youre living a good life, your intuition and your heart will tell you. Its what Ive used as my guid e. I can literally feel emotionally and physically when Im about to do something wrong. I know it. Maybe you know the same feeling.Make progress every day by following a simple path. Dont put too many things on your plate?- ?yes that includes both tasks and worries Keep things as simple as possible. Use positive affirmations and visualization to binnensee yourself achieving and accomplishing what you want to do.The Wins will pile up for you and youll feel the grace of knowing youre doing the right thing.Join my newsletter for the bestemotional intelligence and productivity content on the InternetGet a FREE Coaching Call to Explore Your Emotional Intelligence, and Learn how to Achieve Your Biggest Goals Check out my Amazon bestseller, The Value of You, which has helped tens of thousands of people develop the game plan for living their best lifeYou might also enjoyNew neuroscience reveals 4 rituals that will make you happyStrangers know your social class in the first seven words you s ay, study finds10 lessons from Benjamin Franklins daily schedule that will double your productivityThe worst mistakes you can make in an interview, according to 12 CEOs10 habits of mentally strong people
