Mid-Year Check-In: Recalibrate Your Goals, Priorities & Momentum | EP. 268 | Further Your Lifestyle Podcast

So I think the first thing we need to really address is just the reality check of where things are at.

This is for you individually, right? So I'm going to be talking about things, but you've got to put this in the lens of you.

And you answer it openly to yourself.

If you want to continue the conversation, you can jump down into the comments.

But I think the first question we need to ask ourselves is, this year, it's not about asking, what have you achieved? But I think it's about...

What's genuinely improved? What is better today than it was six months ago or a year ago? Now, this could be anything.

This could be confidence.

It could be health.

It could be your awareness, self-awareness.

It could be relationships.

It could be your discipline.

It could be your mindset.

And you've got to remember, we've spoken about this before, growth is not always visible to everyone else, but to who you are and what you've become and your ability and capacity is going to be very intimate and very personal with you individually.

right? So I think that's the first thing you need to be asking yourself is what is better today than it was six months ago, right? You got that.

Question two, I want you to be asking yourself is what actually feels heavier today? What's the thing that's draining you? What's the thing that's making you feel harder or making, or what is becoming harder? What's costing you energy? What's draining you, becoming harder, or has become harder and costing you energy? Now, don't avoid it.

Write it down.

Name it.

Be realistic about this, all right? So that's the second question.

The third question...

What keeps showing up in your life? Now, this is a really important and a very huge one because this is where the excitement starts.

What lesson keeps repeating itself to you? What challenge keeps revisiting itself to you? What conversation keeps needing to happen? And life tends to put, I guess, a lot of repeat lessons until we learn them or continues to push us out of our comfort zones and people come into our life and get us out of our comfort zones.

And it forces us to have to make a decision that we thought we would not have to make because it's going to make our life nowhere as comfortable as it is now.

But these are all really important things.

These aren't necessarily bad things, but they're things probably reminding you, this is the next step forward.

So the next thing that I want to kind of go through is still some more questions, but Now we can start to align all of this from a reality perspective as are we aligning to what we're trying to achieve, right? So the first thing, the question that I'm going to ask you, question number four in this case, am I living according to my priorities? Now, I think we need to ask ourselves, what does the calendar say is important? What does my behavior say is important? And then we can contrast that towards what did you say was important? But the two conflicting points is kind of like, where is all your time going? And what have you prioritized? Now, if you use a calendar...
