Constantly Challenged

There are often many times in our lives when we are constantly challenged, it doesn’t matter how much personal development you do, how aligned you are or how spiritual. I have to say that for me personally my 36th year has been a year which has had me constantly challenged and pushed me out of my comfort zone for pretty much most of it and in almost every area of my life too. When I turned 37 a few weeks ago I can say with all honesty that I was ready to fully embrace a new year and I would make this year very different from my last.

As we get closer to a new year I wanted to get you thinking about your life, your objectives for the year and what you want from 2012.  What needs to happen for you to start living life rather than existing in it? What does that life look like to you? What does it feel like? How will you know when you have it? What does success mean to you? Take a few moments to answer the following questions. You can do this exercise for any area of your life, be that business or personal. You can even apply it to your relationships with friends. If you’re like me you may want to spend some extra time and do this exercise for all areas of your life.

  1. List the things your grateful for
  2. Love what you have – take 5 minutes to reflect and write
  3. What is currently missing?
  4. What can you tweak to make a difference
  5. Who is currently achieving the results you want to achieve
  6. What are they doing differently to you?
  7. What strategy can you adopt?

How did you find the exercise? Did you have any surprising results? Feel free to leave a comment if you have anything you want to share.

This year has been a very big year of challenge and change. I have leant many valuable lessons for which I am very grateful and also I have completely broken out of my comfort zone and moved up a couple of rung’s on the ladder of life. I have finally moved into the public speaking space. For any of you that want to see me in action then come join me at Wealth Wizards a one day investment workshop, it’s on the 12th November.

I would like to leave you with a song by Cheryl Cole which will hopefully inspire you. No matter how challenging life can become know that the reason for this is because there is a lesson for you to learn or growth needs to ocur. Enjoy the song…. Peace out :)
