How Can you tell if you are working on the right things?
We do not hesitate to begin work.
But what exactly are we going to work on? What are we giving our life to, our work day and our time to? Can you say with confidence that you know what you're working on right now directly impacts and helps build the future you aspire to?
Do you have goals that energize you?
If you work from goals you have a starting place. However, many goals are designed from; what didn't get it done last month or last year or what we must do to avoid a painful consequence and areas where we feel that we fell short.
If all that was moved to the side you might have a clear space to design the next year. You could feel what you want in your heart and connect to a deeper level of meaning. You could connect to a future that is what your business and life are really all about.
The stonecutters story (see side panel) it reveals different approaches to work. One stonecutter simply has a job, the second stonecutter is working to support his family and the final stonecutter is working to build a cathedral that will not be completed in his lifetime.
Question for you.
What kind of stonecutter would you say you are?
At Accelerated Outcomes, crafting what you want in your life from a deeper, more meaningful place is our starting point. We recommend doing a deep design process at the beginning of the year and then refining the design at mid-year.
