What is the legacy you want to create in the world?
Dec 09, 2022What is the legacy you want to create in the world?
What are you doing right now to create it?
Dreading the thought of writing your personal development goals for 2023?๐
I feel your pain!
I used to dread this time too...
Not because I didn't believe in the personal development...
but I knew what I was going to write and present
๐ was going to fall on deaf ears... again! Because no one ever looked at or cared about them.
๐ Felt like were not worth the paper they were written on.
and
๐ Didn't light me up inside and wasn't contributing to the legacy I wanted to create!
They were a vehicle to
โ Get 'better' at something I didn't enjoy doing in the first place, only to end up being mediocre at best๐๐
๐ Be judged on put in a certain box that felt suffocating and restrictive
๐ฃ Re-enforce the (false) belief that you have to do more and learn more to be worthy!
Look, the way you write personal development goals restricts you ๐ฅ
they keep reminding you of your limitations๐ฎ๐คฏ
You see, If you focus on the limitations, you will get more of your limitations๐คฏ
What I want you to know right now is that...๐ฅฐ
There is a much better way to do personal development!๐ฅฐ๐ฅ
and it has nothing to do with learning more, attending more training or keep re-enforcing your limitations!๐คฏ
Before you block time to write down your personal development goals for 2023 consider these 3 questions...
What is the legacy you want to create in the world?
Is your development plan helping you do that or is it limiting you more?
Where will you be in another 1, 3 or 5 years from now if you continue to follow the same soul-sucking process of writing your development plan?๐
Look, I recently asked my ongoing coaching clients to write the answer to this question: ‘What will be written on your tombstone if you died tomorrow?’
This is the answer I got from one of them
"Her life became perfect when she discovered her gratitude and love for the imperfect"๐ฅฐ๐ญ
๐ฅฐ She inspired those around her
๐ By celebrating the little moments, and the deep conversations
โค๏ธ By leading with the heart – especially when the heads got stuck
๐๐จ By relentlessly imagining and creating a future that she wants to live in
๐ฏ๐ฅ By proving that fulfilled work and fulfilled family can happily co-exist๐ฅ
She was a soul
๐ฅฐ Who never gave anyone or anything up
๐ฅฐ Who deeply cared, for those close to her
๐ Who collected the wisdom and maturity of age whilst keeping the cheeky inner child alive until the end
Her legacy was a commitment towards herself and who she was becoming in the process"
You see, this is a long way away from where she started...She would have been fighting for her limitations because that's what she has been doing for years.
She is not the only one who wrote such powerful words.
This transformation is so powerful that it blows my mind every single time ๐คฏ๐ฅ
Who will you choose to become in the process of your transformation?
