The path to abundance and opportunity...
I thought I would switch up what I normally share and turn the attention to cultivating prosperity.
Rather than sharing tactics, I’m sharing what I’ve learned and continue to practice in my life about the mindset of abundance.
First off…
Abundance: a very large quantity of something; plentifulness of the good things of life; prosperity.
Opportunity: a situation or condition favourable for attainment of a goal.
You give power to what you focus on.
What I’ve learned in my experiences about cultivating prosperity is that the nature of seeing abundance and opportunity is more about where I apply my attention and focus.
This is a collection of what I’ve learned and perspectives I practice daily to help me do that:
3 mistakes even high-achievers make in goal achievement
There are common mis-steps that I’ve made and I see others making. I’m highlighting them here so we can support each other in our collective pursuit of our personal and professional goal achievement.
Three common areas where even high-achieving professionals can become derailed:
1. Allowing urgent items to take priority over our schedule, nudging goal efforts aside.
You may be thinking - of course…it’s urgent.
Well, is it urgent for you or someone else? Many times what’s urgent for someone else lands on your plate with a deadline attached, creating a sense of urgency for you. Particularly if you’re in a line of work where this is the norm rather than the exception, this can be a challenging environment to pursue those important but not urgent activities, which is the category that many goal efforts fall into. But, note I said challenging, not impossible.
Leading with certainty
Growing a business and leading your organization can be fraught with ‘what-if’s’ and ‘maybe’s’ and general unknowns.
Deciding which way to go can feel like you’re at the fork of multiple paths.
So, how can you create certainty, when you don’t feel at all certain?
First, what creates certainty?
Is it more information?
Knowing you couldn’t fail?
Knowing if someone will buy?
So consider this, does having more information really create more certainty? Perhaps in some cases….but we can never really have ALL the information. Can we?
