Cycles.🔄 They rule our lives. Some, like the seasons, we can’t control; some we can, and some we choose to ignore until it’s too late. Whether you realize it or not, every day, week, month, quarter, and year — and some would say history — revolve around cycles. And that’s the real key: your awareness — or lack thereof —that these cycles are occurring. Ask yourself how you’re spending your time during these cycles: Are you accomplishing your goals? Are you making progress? Said another way, does your attention match your intention? Or do you blindly go through the motions of your life, allowing time to pass and another cycle to repeat itself? When you acknowledge and examine those past cycles, you can use them to your advantage. You’ll see how and with whom you spent your time, and if that was energizing and positive, permitting you to grow, or draining and negative, causing you to stagnate or worse, take a few steps backward. The good news is that you can proactively shift your focus to those things that truly matter and are good for you, and let the extraneous minutiae slip away. Because one thing is sure: they’ll always be another cycle; it’s what you do with it that matters. #career #leadership #intention #attention #growth #inspiration #mindset #selfawareness …see more
