Achieving Clarity Podcast

VUCA - an acronym for volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity - can affect your personal and professional life, challenging you to find ways to orient yourself and how to respond. In this episode, we discuss the term and how you can navigate the experience so you can emerge stronger and better in your next chapter.   

Setting boundaries in your life is vital to protecting your well-being. If you do not set boundaries then your life can be overwhelmed by other people’s priorities, other people’s energies, other people’s agendas, their opinions, and preferences that by default will take priority over yours. 

In this episode, learn more about the importance of boundaries and the positive effects they can bring to your life.

Many times in life we can be exposed to receiving help or instruction that we did not ask for, or it is coming at a time when we are not ready for it. As such, it can come across as interference. 

Once that interference is internalized, which we are often first exposed to as kids, we can develop an allergy to it. Teaching something prior to an awareness of the need for it I think can be one of the biggest human flaws that we have. 

Learn how to develop a deeper level of self-awareness, and avoid being influenced by those who might be trying to do you a favor in life by saving you from drowning, when in actuality you are doing just fine.

To learn more about achieving more self-awareness and clarity I offer the Apogee Clarity Method Masterclass found on my website at www.benmorley.com. 

A technique a way of accomplishing something; a procedure is a particular course or mode of action and can be directive in nature.

Techniques can be learned from others or developed on your own, in the pursuit of accomplishing a task. Techniques are commonly used within the boundaries of procedural requirements. You likely use techniques throughout your day, be it in the way you arrange your activities at work to how you load the dishwasher after dinner.

A technique is optional - a procedure is mandatory.

In this episode, we look at how some people teach their favorite technique as a procedure, desiring to produce compliance from the student rather than provide a variety of methods on how to accomplish the task within the procedural guidelines.

The task is not important; the issue is the effort to exert control over the students by the instructor. Learn how to distinguish between the two.

In this course you will learn how to distinguish between the trivial many and the vital few, empowering you to become stronger and better in your next chapter. Find out more at www.benmorley.com.
