"KNOW THYSELF" - Shakespeare
Sounds simple doesn't it? When you know yourself you will be much more able to determine what you want. Will had the right idea, didn't he?
There are a couple of simple exercises that have really help me and I hope you find them useful too.
There are no right or wrong answers and I would encourage you to write them down.
Think about your answers, but don't spend too much time on them. The things that come up almost automatically when you take time to ask yourself these questions will be your core desires rising to the surface. Deep down we know what we want, yet much of our time is spent focusing on what we don't want. You simply MUST shift your focus onto what you do want and away from what you don't want.
The following simple exercises have really helped me and I thought they might be of help to you too.
Don't procrastinate writing down your answers to these questions. Just do it and you'll be amazed what you'll discover by taking these simple little steps.
Your friend,

What does your perfect "fun" day look like?
Where are you?
Who are you with?
What are you doing?
NOW....what is your perfect work day?
Where is your office?
What are the activities you are doing?
How much money are you making?
These days must not be the same. A mistake that many of us make is spending all our time working without separating from those activities enough. We need time that is totally separated from our work. Making a habit of spending at least one day a week not doing work will renew your mind, body and soul. We Need This!
I have been one of the worst at this...but I am now making a concerted effort to have one day where I don't work each week. For me, it's Sunday. For you it might be Saturday or Monday. Whatever day you choose to give yourself permission to not do ANY work....just do it! Follow through with your intent and I promise, you will feel better and get more accomplished on the days that you have your normal work schedule.
