The Warrior’s Compass™:  Navigation Tools For Life’s Storms

Relentless Solution Focus 

Mindful Breathing 

You Can Handle It

1.  Mindful Breathing 

-4-6 breathing (Dr. Eric Potterat)

-6-2-7 centering breath (Dr. Jason Selk)

-Physiological sigh (Dr. Andrew Huberman):  two inhales through the nose (one deep, one shorter) followed by a long exhale through the mouth

Mindful breathing lowers cortisol and activates the parasympathetic nervous system; studies show it reduces stress by up to 44% in just a few weeks of practice.

2.  You Can Handle It

Whatever happens to me, given any situation, I can handle it! Never let these three little words out of your mind—possibly the three most important little words you’ll ever hear:  I’ll handle it.  Dr. Susan Jeffers

Reminding yourself “I can handle it” builds stress resilience through self-efficacy; studies show high self-efficacy individuals experience 33% lower stress responses during challenging tasks.

3.  Relentless Solution Focus 

Relentless Solution Focus (RSF) is simply defined as within 60 seconds, replacing all negative thoughts with solution-focused thinking. Although simple in definition, at times this can be extremely difficult to do. RSF is mental toughness. They are one and the same. -Dr. Jason Selk

“What is one thing you can do right now to make this better?”-Dr. Jason Selk

“Keep moving forward. When you have problems, keep moving forward. Stay in the fight. Don’t ever let those problems win. Because there is always a solution. Always.” -Dr. Jason Selk

A positive mindset and relentless solution focus reframe challenges, boosting resilience and lowering cortisol; research shows optimistic thinkers experience up to 30% less stress-related distress.

4.   Ask for help from your Personal Board of Directors (mentors, coaches, therapists, doctors, spiritual advisors, trusted friends and family)

“If you can’t change something you want to change in 30 days…you need professional help to do so.”  Whether cleaning out your garage or clearing out your head.  -Dr. Alan Weiss

Forming a personal board of directors provides guidance, accountability, and social support; research shows strong support networks reduce stress levels by up to 50%.

How To Make Forgiveness Your Superpower Now And Forever (Starting Today)

The 3 Principles Of Forgiveness 
1.  Be kind, for everyone is fighting a battle I know nothing about
2.  Everyone is doing their best they can with the knowledge and abilities they have.
3.  How am I that?

“If I were to summarize in one sentence the single most important principle I have learned in the field of interpersonal relations, it would be this:  Seek first to understand, then to be understood.”  Dr. Stephen R. Covey

“Be kind, for everyone is fighting a battle I know nothing about.”  -Wendy Mass

“You never want to beat yourself up about the past.  I always tell people:  you did the best you could with the awareness, skills, knowledge and tools you had at the time.  Everybody does. It’s also all the people that upset you; they are doing the best they can with the awareness, skills, knowledge and tools they have.  So we need to have compassion for them and ourselves“ -Jack Canfield 

“How am I that?  Only that which we cannot accept within ourselves do we find impossible to live with in others.  Think for a moment of someone you actively dislike.  What quality in that person do you find most objectionable?  Now ask yourself, “How am I that?”  -Dr. James Loehr, The Power Of Full Engagement 

“What would love do now?”  -Paul Chek

The M.A.P. Method:  The World’s Simplest Most Science-Based Method To Transform Your Life 

The world’s simplest, most science-based method to form a new habit or achieve a life-changing goal.

What gets measured gets mastered!

The M.A.P. Method:  Measure It + Accountability Partner 

Measure

Match Up

Master

“Create an accountability plan. Writing it down is a big step. The act of codifying a goal immediately creates accountability; now that it has a physical presence, you have to make it happen. Sharing the goal with others—friends, colleagues, family—ratchets accountability up even more. Once you tell people you’re going to do something, now you really have to make it happen. And having a plan to accomplish the goal and track your progress is just common sense. A 2015 study led by psychologist Gail Matthews corroborates this goal-setting hierarchy: people who merely thought about their goals achieved them (or were well on their way to success) 43 percent of the time, writing the goals down boosted that rate to 62 percent, and sharing the goals and regular progress updates with a friend cranked it to 76 percent.”

-Dr. Eric Potterer, clinical psychologist, high performance psychologist for the U.S. Navy SEALS, the world champion Los Angeles Dodgers, the World Cup champion U.S. Women’s National Soccer Team, and author of “Learned Excellence” 

“The American Society of Training and Development found that people are 65 percent likely to meet a goal after committing to another person. Their chances of success increase to 95 percent when they build in ongoing meetings with their partners to check in on their progress.”  -Barrett Wissman
