a simple focus for living your authentic life
|
I had a simple idea last night. To live your authentic life, you just need to be your authentic Self. While it is exciting to think about a more authentic life and all of the good that will come with it, there is no way of knowing if the details of the authentic life you envision are what you will actually experience. There’s a chance that by fixating your attention on the details of the life you are pursuing, you may miss paths to a life more true to your authentic Self. But if you focus on living true to your Self and being the most authentic version of it each day, your authentic life will unfold as it should. This doesn’t mean you don’t think about what your future Self might be like—who you would like to become, because I do believe in the law of attraction and manifestation, but the majority of your effort should be on going inward and connecting with your Self, finding the confidence to bring that version out, and continuing to be true to your authentic Self. This sounds easy, but I’ve found that it’s not. Most people might only know a fraction of their authentic Self and struggle with finding the confidence to share even that fraction with the world. The work that needs to be done in order to walk the path of your authentic life begins with truly understanding who you are and meeting your authentic Self. 🎧 Listen to today's Note on the LifeDesign+ podcast. See you tomorrow and keep pursuing, JC |

But what will happen in all the other days that ever come can depend on what you do today. -Ernest Hemingway Where you find your Self today is a result of your past Self’s decisions. Are you happy with those decisions, or do you wish you had made different decisions? Think about your future Self with the decisions you make today. See you tomorrow and keep pursuing, JC
Allow your Self to pivot and iterate your way toward your Authentic Life. From experience, I have learned that it is ok to change direction and try again in a slightly different way—especially professionally. Through the pivots and iterations, you end up finding exactly where you are supposed to be. Let’s take a quick look: launch my firm with a barbell approach helping young professionals and retirees. create a new relationship for entrepreneurs that starts with personal planning, moves to...
I try not to use the Daily Notes to distribute my podcast, but the latest AlignedLife episode is perfect for the Notes. I am joined by my friend and fellow Leading Edge Community member, Jeff Williams, and we dive into his decision to leave his corporate career after 27 years. What makes his decision so inspiring and valuable for listeners is it wasn’t a decision to retire—it was a decision to leap into the unknown with the faith that he will be led to what is next. I have a pretty good idea...
