4 Steps to Transform Your Life
All the “gurus” teach many different methods and approaches to changing one's life. The issue is that it is difficult to maintain the momentum for many of them. They encourage you to make many changes at once or push you into unsustainable choices rather than a lifestyle change.
If you are feeling lost, burnt out, or stuck, there’s a 4 step cycle you can repeat to take you from Chaos to Clarity. Identify, Visualize, Reframe, and Take Action are the 4 simple steps keeping you from transforming your life.
Identify.
First, you must identify who you are. What do you like to do? What are your values? What do you dislike? The decisions you make should align with your values. Alignment allows you to overflow onto others and operate in your purpose even if you haven’t yet identified what it is. Find your Ikigai.Visualize.
Begin with the end in mind. What does your ideal life look like? What are you wearing? Who do you spend time with? Where do you put your energy? We are often asked about our Dream Career, getting married, or starting a family; however, there’s more to your ideal life than your titles. Dream up everything about your life including your hobbies, routines, and the way your values show up in your day-to-day life.Reframe.
Roadblocks will always stop you from reaching your goals if you don’t reframe your mind. Changing your perspective on your roadblocks starts with having a growth mindset and leads to making decisions to overcome those barriers. For example, if you want to buy a house, but you don’t know any homeowners; instead of deciding you can’t get the house because no one in your environment has one, seek out homeowner’s educational classes, network with realtors, or start with a Youtube video about how to buy a home. A lacking mindset will always be limited, so keep your mindset living in abundance.Take Action.
Be audacious. Small steps will bring you closer to the goal than no steps. What habits do you need to build to take action? What habits do you need to replace? Who is in your social support system that will hold you accountable? What systems can you implement to make audacious actions easier to make? Taking action starts with deciding you value your goals more than your comfort.
If you are looking for a jumpstart to your transformation, join the upcoming Chaos to Clarity Challenge. This 3-day transformational experience will reframe your mind and lead you to clarify what’s next for you. Learn more.
