Back in episode 152 (LINKED HERE) I guided you through how to navigate your inner world when business results aren’t pleasing.

THIS episode has come off the back of a voice note chat I had over the weekend with the wonderful Studio Chloe David (HER EPISODE 198 is linked HERE) who said:

“I’m doing it because things are going well- and the trap is to fall into the belief that it’s luck, or momentary or chance. It’s almost harder to believe that success is earnt when things are going well”

What was she talking about? SELF EVALUATION…more specifically: success evaluation.

It’s not sexy, and…

It’s as easy to do as it is not to do but it IS powerful.

The self evaluation prompts from this episode:

* What went well?

* How did I contribute to this happening?

* What did I have to navigate / experience that was hard?

* What were my helpful thoughts?

* What did this success teach me about myself?

* Based on this, what I’ll do more of / less of / differently is _______ (in both your inner & outer world)

Simple?

YES.

Powerful?

YES.

EASY???? … NO.

Because more often than not we get stuck in the low lows… and can’t hold ourselves through the high highs. Doing this as a practice will bring you back into a place of deeper objectivity and enable you to take deeper responsibility of yourself in business… vs. thinking that business results are happening “to you” (they’re not).
