Everyone can make agreements, but the real power comes from showing up, sticking to your schedule, and doing the work to fulfill them. Jess Kuemmerlin
REFLECTIONS (learnings and actions): Last week I talked about how you can identify if you are stuck and what you need to consider to get out.
This week I want to to take it one step further and provide a simple workflow for you to get "unstuck!"
Additionally, I was talking with a friend this week who challenged me I could not produce an insightful post in less than 300 words.
Challenge accepted.
Last week I mentioned you get stuck by making more short term decisions based on how you feel.
For example, you choose to get back to the best shape of your life, but constantly make decisions on what you crave (actually addictions).
What I did not include last week, was that making decisions based on how you feel enforces a victim mentality; powerless, lack, and not control of your situation.
Now the truth is you actually have ALL the power in every moment. This belief will allow you to shift your thinking and make decisions based on who you want to BE, not how you feel in the moment.

What I want to highlight is you act EMPOWERED, not as a victim. From a place of POWER not lack.
To break this down I have created this simple, yet powerful workflow for you to achieve success, higher performance, and have confidence in any situation.
POWER - Who you Want to BE - Long Term
Whereas, being STUCK you would be literally stuck in the following workflow:
VICTIM - How you Feel - Short Term
So are you STUCK or UNSTUCK?
Well, use these two simple workflows to one, identify, but, two make decisions to move you out of your rut!
See you on the other side...J

Top three activities that move me forward?
1. Learning about Zen...reaching a result and mastering are two different things.
2. Being consistent with NMR. The day just does not move as smooth.
3. Making agreements and sticking to them.
Biggest lessons/learnings and corrections?
Everyone can make agreements, but the real power comes from showing up, sticking to your schedule, and doing the work to fulfill them.
What are you grateful for?
Our international life abroad. Meggo's father is in town and showing him where we live makes me appreciative of all that we have around us.

PLANNING (Implementation Intention): You will follow through 2X to 3X more likely to complete your weekly task than you normally would just by filling in the following statement.
PLANNING (Implementation Intention): You will follow through 2X to 3X more likely to complete your weekly task than you normally would just by filling in the following statement.
I plan to complete the weekly task [day] at [time] in [location].
A reminder you might have to use multiple Implementation Intentions in order to follow through.
EXECUTION (strategies used): From week to week, I use a combination of many strategies. There are always some which are used more than others depending on what comes up, but I wanted to offer a link to all them at once.
My advice is to identify the I CAN'T statement you tell yourself during the most. Then find a strategy below the statement which resonates with you, and then start using it.
Enjoy!
