The new year is here!
The 'resolutions' will be seen and heard for the first few weeks of the year, but here's a fun experiment to test out....
Check back on everyone talking about 'new year, new me' around the second week in February, and see how they are doing.... Now this post isn't designed to attack any one or their resolutions, in fact it's designed to help us all....Hit the targets we set for ourselves!
Personal growth is a choice!
And if we equip ourselves with the right tools and mindset, we can accomplish anything we put our minds to! So let's develop a real plan together for growth on this platform in the new year....
The graphic above is going to outline how we are going to attack our personal growth this year...Using this model, we will still be fired up in February, while the majority of the creators out there will be fighting to stay motivated.
Let's dive in:
The Seed!
This is the 'root' of our growth strategy and it's exactly what you think it is...This is your idea, this is your dream, this is your reason for showing up each and every day and putting in the work.
The best advice to discovering your 'seed' is to ask yourself this question....If you could do something, without getting paid for it, for the next few months.....What would it be?
Your passion! Write this down, focus on this and always remember that when you 'plant' your seed....It's going to grow. The issue is, will it grow into a fruitful endeavour, or will it be a weed that just takes up space in your life. The nurturing you do, determines what will grow!
The Sunshine!
I came up with this concept years ago, and I think it fits this analogy perfectly. We know we need 'sunshine' to help our seed growth...So what do we do, to make sure the sunshine shines bright on our dreams and goals.
Write down 3 tasks you will accomplish today that will help you reach your goal. And do these things, without missing a beat! An example for me would be:
My Goal - 150,000 $LEO
My 3 Tasks:
Create a long form pice of content on LEO
Dollar cost average & buy 100 LEO
Engage with Threads & be visible
Here's the trick to adding 'sunshine' to your plan....Make these tasks achievable. This will generate enthusiasm and confidence for your journey!
The Soil!
Not only does your seed need sunshine to grow, without a solid foundation (the right soil) things won't go as planned....
What do I mean?
Surround yourself with people (a community) that celebrates you! Be around people that encourage you, lift you up and aren't the Negative Nancy gang!
One poke around this blockchain, you'll find them....Complaining about everything. Get as far away from these people as you can. Don't engage them at all. Your foundation should be like minded people that are BUILDING!
All you need to do for this step, is take one look around the platform.....You'll find the super stars, and pay attention to what they do! This is the right environment for growth!
The Water!
And finally, the magic formula....
You need to 'food' to make this all stick together. Without the 'water', absolutely nothing with grow. And what does 'water' represent in our little plan here?
Become a student in the university of self-education!
What might this look like?
Want to become a developer? Learn everything you can about it!
Want to be an expert in crypto? Study absolutely everything you can about the tokens you love!
Want to write better blogs? Take a course or read books about writing.
Essentially, fill your mind with information and skills that will help your personal growth! And remember this key fact about the 'watering' step....
We each get 1440 minutes a day! What we choose to do with those minutes, determines our future. For me the answer is simple.....Learn everything I can, about my passion.....My 'seed'!
