Your Strengths Are Your Future
Welcome back to ‘Your Choice,’ where we are spending the month of August focusing on your competitive advantage. In week one, we encouraged you to identify what your competitive advantage is in your workplace.
This month, as we continue to be inspired by the Paris Olympics, we’ve listened to the words that describe the athletes STRENGTHS. We have heard the following:
- His story is one of resilience
- She has trained and worked to be physically strong
- He has worked with his coach to be mentally strong
- Before her competition she states that she visually sees her great outcomes
- His mindset never gives up
- This team has a deep belief in themselves
- Every Olympian who has gathered at the 2024 Olympics is here because of their family, friends and their community that have supported them to be here…..
The thousands of athletes who have joined together on the world stage, undoubtedly have a competitive advantage. And, they have trained, in order to have the ability to perform above the norm at their highest level. We trust their mindset, determination and commitment to their STRENGTHS is inspiring to you as you seek your own competitive advantage!
- Take a moment and reflect on your own unique competitive advantage.
- What thoughts about your STRENGTHS stand out to you?
- What STRENGTHS do you utilize every day?
- What STRENGTHS lead you on behalf of your work and life experiences consistently?
- What will support you to gain in clarity about your STRENGTHS and build your confidence?
- What STRENGTHS support your well-being to continue the path of leading yourself intentionally?
Every day, YOU can choose to identify 5 STRENGTHS that lead and support you, as you contribute to your business and work with impact and meaning – all the while creating the work and life that is most important to you.
Intentionally focusing on your 5 STRENGTHS will keep your mindset and energy focused on what is going well. And, it will help you to identify when you are out of alignment with your strengths, which will give you the opportunity to pivot sooner than later and get back on track. Your 5 STRENGTHS will also support you during the tougher moments in work and life when complexities and challenges arise.
Next week, we look forward to guiding you to create a strategy with a focus on 1 of your 5 STRENGTHS. Your strategy will support you. It will sustain you and your energy. It will inspire you in your work and business. And, it will encourage you to THRIVE and makes decisions for your future. Just as the Olympian Athlete’s
– Your STRENGTHS are your future!
