STAGNATION: THE STEALTHY THREAT YOU NEVER SEE COMING
Stagnation is a state or condition marked by lack of flow, movement, or development. It is a death knoll for the human mind & body, relationships, businesses, economies, and countries.
Particularly for The Innovator Leader, one thing is clear: stagnation is agony. It consistently ranks in the top 10 struggles reported by entrepreneurs, founders, business owners, and creatives.
UNLOCK YOUR CREATION MASTERY
The reason for not getting desired results when doing all the “right” things is being out of sync with the fundamental laws of creation to begin with. The more you understand how creation works—and get in step with it—the more effectively you will create what you want in life. Ultimately, the more skilled at creating you become, the less constrained by scarcity, stagnation, and strain you’ll be.
MEDIOCRITY OR MASTERY
Creation has an order to it, and once you understand the fundamentals, you will be equipped to create more of what you want, whenever you want. In this issue of The Grip, we’re introducing three foundational distinctions for masterfully creating your life.
Where in your life are you not getting the results you want? Whether it's your career, personal relationships, or your well-being, prepare to begin a massive upgrade.
THE SPEED OF LESS
Many of us have a habit of saying yes to new commitments without first making room for them in our lives. At a certain point, Bob decided he would remedy this for himself by proactively quitting something every week.
And the result? A life with less stress and more clarity, energy and impact. In today’s issue of The Grip, we’re illuminating this paradox of slowing down to speed up; how pruning back produces more.
SELF-MASTERY
The stoic philosopher, Epictetus put it this way, "No man is free who is not master of himself."
At The Grip, our mission is to simplify and de-mystify this critical skill so you actually enjoy doing what it takes to master yourself—you’re much more likely to excel at it when you do.
In this week’s issue we’ve curated 10 of the most powerful books on self-mastery—each one a masterclass in building focus, clarity, and discipline.
Whether you’re leading a team, building a business, or creating a life of impact, these books are tools to create the life you know you’re capable of.
AWE:
Every conscious soul is designed to be amazed—astounded, gobsmacked, captivated, bewildered; to stand in awe.
Awe is the emotion we feel when we experience vast mysteries. What does that have to do with life mastery? Experiencing more awe is a little-known game-changer for how you move through life—it directly shapes how you create and lead.
CURIOSITY OVER ANSWERS
In the normal course of events, we ask questions to find answers. This is useful and also limiting. To be curious, to question, to comprehend mysteries with no agenda regarding the answers—this is a most unusual way to ask questions.
