CGP Ep146 Sharpening The Blade

Any great chef will tell you, if you spend time sharpening the blade before you start to cook you will be faster, more efficient and more precise with your blade.

The same thing applies to your training program, business or any other aspect of your life that you are wanting to maximize your potential in.

So how do you sharpen your mental blade?

Take a break!

Take a break and look at your life from 10,000ft! Look at your systems, rituals, routines or program as if they belong to someone else.

We are so quick to judge others but give ourselves a pass or avoid facing the truth about who we really are.

Avoid justifying the elements that deep down you know is holding you back.

Then ask yourself, “What makes me excited to get back to when I step in the gym or office tomorrow.”

Whatever popped in your head first is the thing that I want you to focus on first.

What is it about that element that gives you so much joy, excitement or fulfilment? Can you find that same joy in some of the activities that you choose to avoid even though you know they are essential to your future success?

I just got off a 2-week vacation in Scotland with no email, no phone calls, and no business-based social media. Taking that break allowed me to take inventory on the various responsibilities, opportunities and routines that I developed over the past 6 months.

I took an honest analysis of which elements are pushing me toward the self I want to be in the coming year.

There were parts that fired me up, areas needing improvement and other habits that needed refinement. The excitement I have to implement these changes are fuelling my daily actions and intentions to take another step toward personal greatness.

So what was the element that got me most excited?

Listen to this episode and then reflect on your own!
