Love this advice. Because let’s face it, the world is incredibly uncertain and complex right now. Whether personally or professionally, you must find a blueprint to navigate these times. A few ways I think of a practical overlay to these foundational principles: 🔹Ground yourself, then others: how? - For me, it’s focusing on the core four (sleep, diet, exercise, relationships). Do something every day that puts your mind at rest and gives you an opportunity to reflect. Meditation, a walk in nature, journaling, literal grounding. Find your balance then help others do the same. 🔹Expand your notion of team: - Find your tribe. Whether your colleagues, your friends and family, your hobby group, whoever, having community and people on your team is proven to improve longevity. Be creative in who you consult and how, you will find amazing advice and inputs all around you if you just ask. 🔹Assess the worst case scenarios: - Then work backwards. Is it really that bad? What other options do I have? How can I mitigate and do the “pre-mortem” to anticipate and avoid roadblocks? Have the hard conversations with yourself and then create an action plan to course out a different path. Write it down. 🔹Reopen perspectives that become fixed: - We must challenge ourselves to be honest with our viewpoints and steadfast beliefs in the face of an ever changing world and new evidence. The biggest lies we tell are to ourselves. Why do we feel so dogmatic about certain things? Push yourself to be “on the debate team” and argue FOR a position you’d usually be against, and vice versa. You’ll find it builds empathy and a more clear POV. 🔹Manage mindsets: - It ALL starts here. Doesn’t matter what you want if your subconscious isn’t there. Are you really at the stage of change for action? Or still pre-contemplative? Everything that has ever happened in this world has happened because someone has decided and made a mindset shift. Manage your mindset and your entire experience of life changes. 🔹KISS: - We make everything too hard. There’s nothing fancy about how to live a great life. Here’s a simple road map: - Eat mostly real food, in moderation - Move your body daily, aim to walk as much as possible and lift heavy things - Prioritize sleep, turn off the screens - Find purpose and community Simple. Now go crush this day!!
