BEYOND VISUALIZATION

If you've done any amount of personal development work, you are already familiar with the concept of visualizing your desired outcomes. Why does it seem to work for some but not for others?

Harnessing the subconscious is the differentiator between visualization that propels your life forward and visualization that unintentionally creates more of what you don't want.

In this week’s issue of The Grip, we show you the next critical step for harnessing your subconscious: reprogramming it.

THE ETERNAL WELL

In normal conversation, wellbeing is considered to be a temporary state. It’s something that, through choice, action, and circumstance, can be gained or lost. You can make yourself well; you can make yourself unwell.

What if wellbeing doesn’t work that way? What if being well is as constant as being human?

Living FROM Rest

Rest is not a place to get to; it’s a place to come from. Regardless of which day of the week you designate as your rest day, I’d like you to start seeing it as Day One from which the following six days will be fueled.

Seeing your rest day as the start rather than the end of your week fundamentally shifts it from being a day to crash in exhaustion to a day intentionally designed to support your wellbeing.

Doing Weekly Rest

For much of my adult life I thought a three-hour Sunday afternoon nap was getting the job done; nice try, but no.

What does it look like to “do” Weekly Rest? Today I’m giving you a snapshot of how I intentionally rest each week.

It’s not a standard of “perfect” or the “right way” to do Weekly Rest. It’s an example of what is working really well for me right now.

When Was Your Last Day Off…Really?

There was a time I viewed weekly rest as optional.

Like many leaders, I prioritized getting quality sleep every night, but I was “too busy” to carve out a day for nothing but rest each week—who’s got time for that??

Then a mentor challenged me to experiment with it for a couple of months to see if it made a difference.

Unmasking The Imposter 1

Many leaders experience some degree of what is frequently called Imposter Syndrome: persistent self-doubt, fear of failure, and worry of being exposed as a fraud. It’s so common that even if you don’t struggle with it yourself, it’s likely that someone you value does.
