Regret is a powerful emotion that has the potential to shape our lives in profound ways. However, by understanding its underlying mechanisms, recognizing its presence, and actively working to release its grip, we can reclaim agency over our lives and pursue our aspirations with greater courage and clarity. Embrace the journey of self-discovery and growth, knowing that each experience, regrettable or not, contributes to our one extraordinary life. 

Regret comes up when we perceive that our current situation is worse than an alternative scenario that we could have chosen in the past. Fear of regret can stop us from pursuing our goals, defaulting to extraordinary. 

To break free from the hold that regret may have,  we can incorporate a regret release ritual into our lives. This ritual provides a structured framework for acknowledging, processing, and letting go of past regrets.

If you believe you are worthy and valuable, you are worthy and valuable. Even if you don’t believe you are worthy and valuable, guess what—you still are worthy and valuable!

There is a difference between evaluating actions and evaluating personal worth. We can learn from our mistakes and grow as individuals by assessing our efforts. However, evaluating our worth by any of the things that are apparent values of culture - appearance, status, relationships, popularity - can threaten our well-being and put us out of alignment with what is true. 

There are things you can do right away to begin to boost your sense of self-worth and ensure that you value yourself like you ought to be valued—as a full, complete, and wonderful human being who is deserving of love and respect, no matter what.

• Surround yourself with people who make you feel good about yourself, who inspire you, and help you stay connected to the voice of Truth.
• Turn up the volume on truth or positive thinking and delete the untruths. 
• Call out the truth in others - tell others about their value. 
• When you receive compliments, when others notice your value - say Thank You! No deflections, explanation, justification... just Thank You. Take it in. 

You are fearfully and wonderfully made. May your soul know it full well as you go out every day and default to YES - Your Extraordinary Self.

It's easy to fall into the trap of fatigue. What starts as a harmless intention to relax for a bit can quickly spiral into a marathon of late-night streaming sessions. Before we know it, we're burning the midnight oil, juggling multiple responsibilities, and relying on caffeine to keep us going.

Research reveals a compelling link between fatigue and impaired decision-making. When fatigued, our cognitive resources become depleted, making it challenging to process information, evaluate options, and make sound judgments. Sleep deprivation, a common cause of fatigue, disrupts neural networks responsible for executive functions, such as reasoning and problem-solving.

You are not alone in this, but you also don't have accept this as a given part of a normal day in your busy, successful life.

Fatigue may be a universal human experience, but it doesn't have to dictate our lives. By adopting proactive strategies and prioritizing self-care, we can reclaim our energy, focus, and vitality.

Want to “workshop” your success strategy with me? That is what the “No Regrets Discovery Session” is all about. Let’s get you a win! My treat!

The human mind can engage in mind wandering, which can improve memory consolidation, problem-solving, and creative thinking, as well as reduce stress levels. However, prolonged mind wandering can lead to negative emotions such as stress, anxiety, and depression. Happiness is a complex mix of both mental and brain-related factors. It is important to maintain a balance between mind wandering and staying focused. Incorporating mindfulness meditation, setting realistic goals, avoiding multitasking, creating mindful rituals, and embracing self-awareness are all ways to cultivate a happier life. Pursuing well-being, a combination of happiness, health, and purpose, is a key human aspiration, even if we define well-being in different ways. What would it look like if you believed that it is all already inside you - what if you could work toward your goals without any “sense of worth” without having to bolster a sense of self-confidence, without it meaning anything about the core of who you are, if you life matter or not. 

What if you could just work on your goals, work on skills, and show up knowing how extraordinary you are, knowing how much you matter? And then go out and create something beautiful - music, art, business, competency, caring... whatever it is that makes your heart sing - 
as you get up every day and default to yes - your extraordinary self?

Take the challenge! 

1. Take a week off from working on yourself in any way don’t try to change it improve or fix yourself just enjoy hanging out with your work your hobbies and your loved ones too.
2.  If you can’t bring yourself to take a whole week off take a few days off and three if you can’t bring yourself to take a few days off just take one

Ever wondered why common sense is not always put into action?

Despite being defined as the practical ability to perceive and understand things, following common sense isn't as straightforward as it seems. Common sense isn't always common practice. Different perspectives, competing priorities, and a lack of knowledge or skills can keep up from practicing what we know. Laziness, stubbornness, or a desire to go against the norm may also contribute to the gap between common sense and common practice. While it may not always be easy, striving to follow common sense is crucial for making good decisions and leading a fulfilling life.

In this episode: 

• Psychological Insights: Our brains are wired to prioritize short-term rewards over long-term gains, a phenomenon known as temporal discounting. Breaking free from these patterns requires a conscious effort to override our default modes. Social and environmental factors play a pivotal role in shaping our behaviors. Understanding these psychological intricacies is essential in designing strategies to turn common sense into common practice.
• 3-Step Framework: To bridge the gap between common sense and common practice, a three-step framework can be applied:

1. Mindful Awareness:
   Begin by cultivating mindful awareness of your habits and choices. This self-awareness lays the foundation for intentional change.
2. Behavioral Modification: Armed with self-awareness, focus on modifying one behavior at a time.  Behavioral science suggests that incremental changes are more likely to lead to lasting habits, as they are easier for the brain to accept and integrate.
3. Positive Reinforcement and Social Support: Implement positive reinforcement and leverage social support to solidify the desired changes. Celebrate small victories, no matter how insignificant they may seem. Social support not only provides accountability but also fosters a sense of belonging and shared commitment.

Conclusion:

 By taking intentional steps to align our actions with our knowledge, we can unlock the extraordinary potential within ourselves, living a life that is not just informed by common sense but actively shaped by it.

Day in and day out. It can seem like we're constantly striving to achieve one thing or another. Whether it's professional benchmarks or personal accomplishments. The relentless drive to meet those goals can wear us down. Especially, if we feel as though we're falling behind.  The best thing that we can do for ourselves during these moments. Is to give yourself the break you deserve. And embrace a non-striving approach to the week ahead.  

Now this doesn't mean that you're slacking off or brushing aside your goals, that you're any less than extraordinary.  It simply means evoking a sense of being. Rather than doing.  Instead of getting worn down because the finish line seems so far off adopting a non-striving mindset, allows us to save her every step along the way.  We're shifting from a space of being hyper-focused on the goals. To be present with the journey.  

However, you decide to pursue it.  By being present and connected. You're fostering a deeper sense of mindful awareness, which in turn can lead to more focus and clarity. 

I invite you to incorporate positive affirmations on this non-striving approach, daily. These affirmations might sound like "My potential is limitless." "I am fully capable of doing great things."  "I default to my extraordinary self."  "I'm so grateful for the beauty all around me."  Allowing yourself to channel that positive energy or of whatever affirmation comes to you. Acknowledging it's truth and carrying the feeling wherever you go. 

By purposely stepping away from the daily grind. And coming back to the present. And your body and mind will naturally begin to unwind.

SMART(ER) Goals and New Year Resolutions - good idea? or not so much? 

Setting and achieving goals is just part of the human experience, encompassing personal development, professional success, and overall well-being. No matter what you call it, or what we think - we all have things we want and ways we go about making it happen = Goals. 

Despite good intentions, many of us face challenges in reaching goals - or even setting them in the first place. We explore the psychological and scientific reasons behind goal failures, practical tips, and inspiration to overcome common obstacles.

What stands in our way most often?

• Lack of Clarity for Desire: Vague or ambiguous goals hinder success; specificity and regular reassessment are essential. What do you want, really? 
• Negative Thoughts: Negative self-talk, doubt, and fear of failure undermine motivation; positive mindset and affirmations are key. Just because it didn't work - or it did and then we let it all be undone - ever lose the weight only to put it all back on? Ever de-clutter your closet only to be right back where you started less than a year later? 
• Environment, Lack of Support, and Accountability: The environment, support, and accountability are critical; creating a conducive environment and seeking support can enhance success.
• Inspiration for Overcoming Obstacles: Visualization, learning from setbacks, breaking down goals, and fostering a growth mindset are essential strategies.

Achieving goals involves a complex interplay of psychology, motivation, and environment. By understanding the science behind goal setting and implementing practical strategies, individuals can overcome common obstacles and increase their likelihood of success. Embracing the journey and celebrating every step forward!
