REVIEW OF THE WEEK 

RMAnnJo

Trish’s podcast is so uplifting!!! She shares wise thoughts on most topics that I am interested in knowing more. I would DEFINITELY recommend listening to her when you have a team. And Trish, God bless you for listening and abiding by His plans for you. 🙂

HELPING YOURSELF

Identify your time slumps + your energy slouches

-Anticipate them

-Track your impulse control

-Set yourself up for success around these

-Temper your expectations

-Prepare in advance (coffee, shoes out, etc)

Identify your highlight times + best energy you

-Maximize them by having a plan

-Identify a daily highlight

-Have a mission statement to daily direct you and deepen your fulfillment and purpose

COACHING YOURSELF

Setting up accountability

Breaking down your breaking points and creating a better system

Journaling

Getting a coach for check-ins

Create arbitrary deadlines and achievements

Reward yourself more consistently

Create meaning in what you do and know where you are going

You are never doing this on your own, you’re doing this with God

Watch out for infinity pools

Dare to be different (to not watch certain shows, to turn off social media, to not have tv in your room, to express your real feelings and preferences)

Know what trips you up (me, it’s sloppiness in my slumps, so I have to create structure around this)

THE REAL SECRET TO REACHING YOUR GOALS

1. To have a goal.
2. To go for the goal.

Most of us think about goals. We talk about them. We imagine them. We wish them for ourselves, but we never really commit. We get afraid. We are afraid of failing. We don’t want to look foolish. We don’t want to be disappointed in ourselves.

The only disappointment you can have in yourself is a disappointment for never having tried. For only having gone through the motions of life, and never having actually dared to live.

Know The Best-Case Scenarios

Best Case – Success

Second-Best Case – Failure

Not Optimal Case – Giving Up After Trying Once

Worst Case – Not Trying at All or Procrastinating

The key to this all is action.

I have two major strengths in life: enthusiasm and action. So, listen, you don’t have to have this all figured out. You don’t have to do this on your own. That’s why you have me, and coaching from me, like the coaching you get in The College of Confidence or by working with me privately.

Learning how to take action if you’re someone who has never taken action before is less about discipline and will power and all about mindset, belief, and strategy.

I’ll coach you.

I’ll teach you.

I’ll push you.

I’ll catch you.

I’ll help you get back up.

I’ll celebrate you.

LISTENER OF THE WEEK:

I just finished your Confident Boost videos and the bonus video.  I have been thinking of joining the College of Confidence and I look forward to hearing back from you. I already feel blessed from all the resources you have created. I am currently reading your book Insecurity Detox, and I have to say it is changing my perspective on my life and challenging me every day. Thank you! Words cannot express how grateful I am for you and God for all He has equipped you with to help others. I hope you and your family have a wonderful weekend!

Blessings,

Ronika Calvaruzo
