This is not a real estate specific post - and many might argue it's not related and not necessary to have here but I felt this was appropriate as we are all in a state of change.
There is an exercise for starting off the year with your best foot forward, made popular by Jon Gordon’s book, One Word That Will Change Your Life. The exercise is simple: select a single word that represents how you want to be and feel as a result of your actions over the course of the year. And then, carry that word as your mantra throughout the year, letting it impact your choices.
Having a guidepost – something specific you’re focusing on – can cut down the clutter and noise and bring you back in a forward direction. That One Word can make your decisions easier and your actions more definitive.
Many people have taken on this exercise and already have a word for 2020. If you chose a word, does that word still resonate for you, given the world and circumstances we find ourselves in? If not, or if this is your first introduction to the concept, feel free to download our worksheet here and go through the exercise.
I did the exercise back in October with other CEO Mastery attendees. We heard words like Focus, Persevere, Brave, Intentional, Kindness, Purpose, and Growth.
If you did an exercise like this, please let me know if your One Word is still serving you, or if you have chosen something different!
