This one simple exercise makes everybody want you (sort of)

Have you ever not felt the pull at work and wanted to find new opportunities?

Here is a simple exercise on how you can reflect the most authentic and best you to the world and make everybody want you.

Let’s do an activity that I call High Performance Habit.

Close your eyes and take a few deep breaths....

Now think of three words that might describe your ideal self. Three words that would describe the best of you are or could be.

For example, my three words are conditioned, challenging, and role-modeling. Because I need to be in great physical and mental condition every time I coach my clients. My job is to challenge them to grow faster and rise taller than they would ever do on their own. And I need to be a good example because no one believes the message if they don’t believe the messenger.

So think about three words that describe who you are, how you need to show up in life, what actions you need to take consistently to get results, and the values and principles you want to live by.

What three words come to mind? Write them down. Don’t overthink them. Just write down the first three words that come to mind.

In fact, do you have your phone on you?

Do you know how to set an alarm on your phone?

Set one for three times a day, for example at 9 am, 1 PM and 6 PM. Give the alarms a label that includes all 3 words.

When the alarm comes up, check in on yourself. If you live and breathe all three words at that very moment, celebrate yourself. If you don’t, you either take immediate action or adopt a different belief that gets you back on track. That way you will be reminded how you are supposed to be living and you will condition yourself to be the best you.

Keeping an intention for who to be each day brings greater clarity, strength, and opportunities in life. So, keep those 3 words on your mind each day and focus on living them fully.
