Finish 2023 With An Exclamation Point!

We’re in the last lap of 2023 — and if you want to end the year with a giant exclamation point of accomplishment, there’s ONE THING you can do:

Zero in on your “Sphere of Control.”

That means focusing on things you actually have control over, like: 

• Your actions

• Your mindset

• Your effort

… And letting go of everything else.

Here’s a graphic that shows how this sphere works:

When you focus on the things you control, you move FORWARD toward your goals.

A few health and fitness examples of your sphere of control:

• Your workouts

• The quality of the food you eat

• Your performance and consistency

Plus, your efforts in your “things you can control” circle carry a bonus. They can power the “things you can influence” by helping you make gains there, too.

Some health/fitness-related examples in your sphere of influence:

• Setting up your bedroom so it’s cool, dark, and quiet, to help you get a great night of sleep.

• Being consistent with your workouts and nutrition, to feel better and have more energy.

• Keeping an up-to-date calendar (including time for workouts and self-care), to stop your schedule from getting out of control

There are also things you can’t control or influence, no matter how hard you try! To name a few: the weather, the passing of time, and your genetics. 

It’s much better to work WITH those things than drive yourself nuts trying to control them.

I do a quick scan of my “sphere of control” every few months. It helps me streamline my thinking so I can focus on the things that I can do to move me forward, faster.

Right now, for me, that means:

• staying consistent with my exercise
• blocking off time in my calendar NOW for my courses
• making time for self-care each day

What does it mean for you? What are your top 2-3 actions to put on “repeat” for the rest of the year? 

Let’s do this! :) 

Make your day an amazing,
