Dealing w Difficult Times in Life
In this episode of The Charged Life, high performance coach and #1 New York Times bestselling author Brendon Burchard shares how to deal with difficult times in life. This is Brendon speaking freestyle, recorded in one take without prompter or notes.
--------------------
SUMMARY:
--------------------
1. Set Small, Simple Daily Goals. When times are difficult, it's easy to feel we've lost all our personal power. So, a simple way to insert agency and progress in our lives is to simply set three small goals every day and work to achieve them. These can be as simple as taking a shower, going for a walk, and calling a friend.
2. Keep Perspective. Draw some strength from the truth that there have been positive, good, happy times in life and that those moments and memories can return and are with you. And remember that part of keeping perspective is realizing you are not on an island alone - there are people out there who can help you through this. Finally, remember, you are the miracle - the fact that you can choose your attention and breath and choices each day is a blessing.
3. Ask, "What should I be learning here?" When times are tough, we often feel that we can't understand or handle things, that we lack competence or capability. So, to shore up those feelings, be strategic and ask, "What could I learn here?" or "What could I learn now to better handle this stage of my life?"
4. Have Intention to Be Your Best Self Despite the Difficulties. When I had a brain injury, I couldn't control my emotions and actions for a while. I felt out of control. All I could do is set the intention to be my best. I forced myself to ask, "How would my best self interact with this situation? How would I view this, go through this, support others despite it all?" Sometimes, reminding ourselves to be good and strong even when it is hard can keep us positive and connected.
5. Keep Gratitude Alive. This is the time to get grateful for the choices and blessings you do have, for the people you do have supporting you, for who you are and who you can become. Appreciate the small things, especially now when it's tough.
