Your Bridge from Confusion to Health, Business & Clarity
This month we are focusing on how to build the bridge from confusion, fear, overwhelm, and stuckness to health, clarity, and business. These are the three foundational elements I use when working with clients.
Health
It all starts with health. Without health we lack the energy and focus to get clear and build a life that supports us.
The first thing is to remove pain from your life. How do we do that? Let’s work on reducing stress and anxiety. There are many ways to do this. You could meditate, take a walk, go on a hike, connect with your community….
When examining our health, begin by understanding where you are in regards to your health. Then start taking small steps forward to improve your health.
Sleep
If you are going to do one thing for your health today, I recommend focusing on sleep. When we get 7 hours of quality sleep per night it allows our body to heal and reset as we rest. When we don't get sleep, it negatively impacts everything in our body.
The number one needle mover to your health is sleep.
Clarity
The next step across the bridge is clarity. I can’t tell you how many times I work with people who are building a business or career that does not support their lifestyle or life priorities.
It’s important to get clear so you can be intentional about building your career or business. What are your life priorities and goals? Document it...build your compass. This way you know what to say yes and no to.
Here are a couple tools to help you... First, quiet your mind with meditation or breathwork. Once the mind is quiet, walk yourself through a guided visualization or on your own. Visualize how you’d like your day to go, key events from the week, and visualize your long term goal. We want to uncover your vision and mission in life long term.
For me, I want to heal people through aligning them to the right career or business for their life. So many people struggle when they are out of alignment. Longer term, I want to create or partner in building a non-profit to help boost children’s confidence and soft skills.
You know you’ve found the right long term goal and vision when you are filled with energy and excitement every morning to take action to achieve this vision.
Business
The next step on the bridge is business. Since we spend so much time in business or career, we want to make sure we are in the right one. We are using our passion, our purpose, and our skillset.
In business or career, it’s important to get clear on your business values. What are three values that are must haves for you? Integrity, trust, teamwork? What are those for you?
Next, it’s important to design your business vision. If you are working for another company, what is your leadership vision and how does that align to the company’s vision?
If you’re a business owner, what is your vision? Why are you building this? What do you want to change?
Once you define this it makes it so much easier to build a roadmap to move forward. It makes it clear what you need to do next to move forward...towards your goals.
Where Are You?
We’ve covered all three foundational areas: health, clarity, and business. With each area optimized, you can live a full life. A life of significance and purpose. A life where you are thriving. Living fully!
