If you struggle to meet your goals and often let yourself down, this is for you. To be clear, this one is about your self-concept rather than the actions you do (or don’t) take.
You probably often hear me talking about creating and living a life you love.
Your self-concept is how you CREATE your life rather than just life happening TO you.
It’s about deciding in advance what you want for your life and who you must be to create that life.
If you’re trying to create results in your life and taking lots of action without addressing your self-concept, it will not work.
If who you are being doesn’t match the results you’re working to create, you will sabotage your results every single time.
For example, if you identify as someone who is overwhelmed, overwhelm the result you will produce.
You simply cannot create results without changing your identity and your self-concept.
Here’s how to change your self-concept:
- Assess—where are you now, and where do you want to be?
- Define—why do you want it? Why is it important to you? And who do you need to be to get it? Consult with your future self.
- Decide—what you want to change. What can you do to get from here to there, and where do you want to start? If necessary, borrow from other areas where you have created change. Consider how you did it and apply that here.
- Plan and implement while also becoming the person who creates new results.
- Evaluate your results—Find evidence that who you are becoming and what you are doing is working. Then, see what you might want to try differently (if anything).
Then, as I love to say—wash, rinse, repeat; this is an ongoing process.
This is how life works. We are constantly evolving and striving for the next thing. When we’re done, we’re dead, so learn to appreciate the journey.
