These were coach and author Michael Neillโs powerful words in our private coaching session from yesterday.
This morning, my internal GPS nudged me to read the following page from my book โ ๐ฌ๐ฒ๐, ๐ฌ๐ผ๐ ๐๐ฎ๐ป ๐๐ต๐ฎ๐ป๐ด๐ฒ! ๐ง๐ต๐ฒ ๐๐ฟ๐ ๐ผ๐ณ ๐ฅ๐ฒ๐ฐ๐น๐ฎ๐ถ๐บ๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐ฌ๐ผ๐๐ฟ ๐๐ถ๐ณ๐ฒ.
Knowing and imagining are two of our hidden superpowers. On one hand, you can choose to notice the effort, struggle and striving in your day-to-day life, and imagine an uncertain future. On the other hand, you can choose to be curious and just notice that stress isnโt really necessary for success. By doing this, you get to imagine all the possibilities that we are surrounded by and not make our thinking our obstacle and crutch.
The fables you tell yourself about who you are and who you want to be, determine the priorities in your life and govern a majority of your daily choices and actions. Create fables in which you are the hero.
What fables are you choosing to tell yourself?
