Design Yourself

It's easy to feel like you are being left behind. Like everyone else is doing more, faster, better. Is no one on the same path as me, you might wonder? It's understandble that we feel anxious about what we are doing. And a sense of urgency that we ought to be doing more. Let's explore how to reframe our mindset, focus and actions as we tap into the question: Am I behind?

The day-to-day minutiae isn't where most of us turn for inspiration. This small stuff tends to be pretty monotonous. In this episode of Design Yourself, we challenge these assumptions and turn our excitement up for the granular and the mundane. Let's explore together how we can crack our ennui and find comfort and a sense of direction by thinking small.

In Thinking Small we explore 1) clues that thinking small is good leadership "move;" 2) the practice of paying attention (without judgement); 3) a Louise Glück poem to inspire us all to look closer.

"Tell me what you eat and I will tell you who you are." This wisdom comes to us from a French gastronome writing in 1825. The message stands up. Science shows us that what we consume impacts way more than numbers on a scale. Our moods, emotions, physical health, and mental well-being all connect back to what we eat and drink. What kind of eating will steward your professional and personal ambitions? Let's explore together in this Design Yourself episode on Clean Eating Reflections.

Our biggest aspirations are realized less like a tsumami crashing down on the shore and more like a toddler making their way down the block. We take one small, shakey step and then another. With commitment and focus, we move steadily to a new place. What tweaks could radically improve the way we live, work and lead? What victories are just beneath our awareness waiting to be uncovered? Let's explore in this episode of Design Yourself on Celebrating Small Wins.

To lead a well-designed life does not mean things are never hard. How we act in the face of an obstacle says a lot about our values and integrity.

What's your move when the going gets tough? Do you walk away? Do you tighten your grip and attempt to control? Do you point fingers and look for an external source to lay blame? Or maybe you tap into your ability to keep moving in spite of the difficulty or opposition you face? We explore these questions and more in today's episode on persistence.

Our values show up everywhere - in how we make decisions, in the charges on our bank statements, in the way we spend our time, and in the company we keep. Get curious about how your priorities are revealed through your everyday habits.

What guides us in our work and lives? How do we discern and clarify what matters? And how do our values interact with others? We explore these questions and more in Defining Your Personal Values.

Sometimes doing nothing is a valid, productive choice. Holding steady gives us space to seek more information, build up our energy reserve, and let a more ease-filled path reveal itself. Consider a place where you feel stuck. What's the harm in waiting to act? What's even the opportunity? We reflect on these questions and more in this episode highlighting the power of wait and see.

To realize our big, bold visions, we need support. Asking for help can offer us so much - from bringing ease to our daily rhythms and routines to getting resources in crisis to deepening our connection to our community. What is your relationship to asking others to help you out? What are the mindsets and habits at play for you? We explore these questions and more as we build up our muscle memory on how to ask for help.
