“Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself.” – Leo Tolstoy With 2020 starting as a year of drama, trauma and tragedy I watch closely to the reactions of people through social media, the lens we all see most often with the worlds views on things. There’s rage, anger, uproar, people are offended and with this outrage comes thousands upon thousands of opinions on how the world can be a better place and what the government and politicians need to do. In fact what a everyone else needs to do. But I wonder how many are making any adjustments or changes themselves? How many are truly trying to make themselves better? Literally the only person or thing they have complete control over. How many have the opinions on what will fix the world but can’t look in the mirror or sit for 20 minutes once a week and journal to look at what went well, what didn’t go well and what improvements they can make in their own life? It’s kind of ironic isn’t it? Maybe it’s time we cleaned up our own back yard before sharing our outrage for how everyone else needs to be better? Maybe it’s time to discipline ourselves to do the deep work that needs to be done in order to leave the most positive imprint we can on the world? Just a thought. QUESTIONS: •       When do you feel most alive? •       When has adversity caused you to break and when has it caused you to break through to a higher level?  •       When you’re performing at your best what’s it like? •       When you’re performing at your worst what’s it like? •       What has made you successful to this stage of your life? •       What are your current habits to train your mindset? •       What books are you currently reading or listening to? •       Do you meditate, do yoga or any kind of mindfulness or stillness training?
