I Won In 2021!

There are many lessons learned after dealing with the pandemic as well as all the other issues we faced in 2020. Many people also experienced a range of emotions - some they may have never dealt with before. Throughout it though, we needed to believe (and continue to believe) that we will overcome all of this and that life will get better.

All of this got me wondering about what we will be contemplating a year from now. What do we hope to achieve? What do we want to experience? What do we want to learn? How do we want to feel fulfilled - both professionally and personally?

I am not talking about making New Year's Resolutions which most people either don't do or fail to do by February. I am speaking about a higher level of thought. An inspiration, a strong desire, etc. that propels us forward to a greater level of satisfaction within ourselves which hopefully also manifests to others.

This requires spending a lot of time reflecting on who we were in the past, who we are now, and who we want to be. It also includes having more thought-provoking conversations with others close to us on how they perceive us and what they wish for us. It is reading books and articles, watching videos and movies, listening to podcasts and radio shows, and attending lectures and events that challenge us to think differently on how we see ourselves and question why others view us differently.

It takes dedication and perseverance to do this all year long so what do you have to lose? Would it be better to do nothing and feel regret? Or do you decide that 365 days of this "deep dive" into figuring out who you are is really worth it? You also may want to consider... Maybe there is more that you can do but you are blind to it. Maybe there are limiting beliefs that you possess that are holding you back. Maybe you feel "life is OK for now" so you just want to "chill" for a period of time.

Regardless of what you decide to do or not to do, write yourself a letter right now about how you feel. Stick it under your mattress or place it in an out of the way place. A year from now read the letter and ask yourself "have I won in 2021?"

How A Person Becomes A Success

Success is a quality that most of us desire, yet do we really know what success is? The concept is so broad. Imagine coming to a new country called the United States as a little boy and not even being able to walk on your feet when you are young. Then you require lots of medical attention and spend lots of time in a hospital setting. The very thought of being strapped to an operating table terrifies you. It scares you so much that you start to cry and you wonder when this nightmare is going to be over. After each surgery especially if there are several of them, you have to spend at least a good 8 weeks just to recover. 

After all of the required medical attention, you most probably need physical therapy to improve the flexibility and coordination in your muscles and joints. Upon starting school as a child, you may become picked on and bullied by other kids. You may have trouble relating to others on a social level. But in spite of these challenges, you are very gifted and smart academically. All throughout your school career, you become a success and receive many awards for your good grades. You become well-liked by your teachers and many of your classmates. Even a loss in the student body elections for student secretary in middle school during the 7th grade does not deter you from wanting to succeed in school. 

Upon graduating from high school, your academic prowess continues and you end up getting an undergraduate degree. You are then able to prove that you can hold a job successfully. Your employer sees your dedication and hard work and he or she also notices your value to the company. And even after you are laid off from your job, you can still see yourself as a success because you worked so hard to get to where you are today in spite of so many challenges and obstacles. Upon being laid off from your corporate job, you begin to explore other possibilities of jobs that you could do. Somehow, you end up studying Accounting, still feeling and believing that you are a success in your life. The story that was just told is a short version of the story of this writer and how he became a success. This narrative account shows what real success really is even if you lose your job and have been affected by a down economy.

Consciously Live Your Personal Mission

Is what I say I want really important to me? Is it worth it to me to create what I say I want? The situations of your life, whether in relationships, work, or self, are a reflection of the experience of life that you consciously or unconsciously choose. 

Your Mission Statement is your guide, to help you consciously choose the kind of life that you want. The next step for you is to apply your Mission Statement to a Vision that you want to create. Conscious application of your Mission Statement will help you become much more "attractive": the ability to bring into your reach all of the people, money, resources and opportunities you need to create the future you want. Here are ten suggestions about how to use your Mission Statement to create a successful, effortless and happy experience of life. 

1. Reframe your Mission in form of a question.

A Mission Statement that works applies to every aspect of your life. Learn to consciously ask yourself "How can I live my Mission in this moment?". As you get more comfortable with your "Mission Question" (through frequent use), it becomes a powerful tool to give you the answers you need to get unstuck, or reenergized at whatever you do. Say your Mission Question to yourself when you get up in the morning ("How will I live my Mission today?"). Say it when you go to bed ("How did I live my Mission today?"). Say it whenever you get bored, unmotivated, annoyed, surprised, or successful! 

2. Keep your mission at top of mind. 

Your Mission Statement is a tool to help you live at a more conscious level. One tool some people use is to set your wristwatch to beep every hour on the hour. When it beeps, stop whatever you are doing, take a full deep breath (inhale AND exhale), then say your Mission Statement to yourself. This "Mission Break" will do wonders to reenergize you. To accelerate whatever you are doing, take more frequent Mission Breaks... and at the limit, you will always repeating your Mission to yourself, to the point that it will push out any negative or doubtful thoughts. 

3. Create the experience of your Mission with every person you meet. 

As you live your Mission, find ways to inject the "experience" of it in every conversation and interaction with others. This does not have to be overt, or artificial... by simply keeping your Mission at top of mind, and asking your Mission Question whenever you hesitate, get stuck or are unsure, you will learn to naturally let your personal gift come forth. After a while, this will become automatic. When it does, you will be amazed at how easy it is to quickly connect and build trust with others, even people you have never met before! 

4. Create time to experience your Mission with yourself, alone. 

Take time off, preferably on a daily or weekly basis, to be alone with yourself. During these solo times, consciously experience your Mission with yourself. Repeat your Mission Statement as a mantra as you do a solo activity, especially in nature, or as you meditate or pray. In my experience, I often get powerful insights and solutions to issues in my life when I repeat my Mission Statement while doing a physical activity in nature (a mountain hike, a long run, or a swim). Experiencing your Mission while solo will also help you tap into your inspiration and your spiritual connection. 

5. Transform your Mission Statement into your "Personal Brand" 

Share your Mission with others by transforming it into your Personal Brand. Share your Mission Statement with others. Make your Mission the mission of your business, job or livelihood. Let it become your theme. People "buy" whatever you are offering, not because of what it is you are offering, but rather because they trust you... because you are projecting yourself honestly, congruently and transparently. 

6. Look at your life experiences through the lens of your Mission. 

Interpret everything that happens in your life, or that catches your attention, through the lens of your Mission. Ask yourself "How does this fit with my Mission?" Your Mission is a "decoder ring" that can help you make sense of what is happening around you. Conscious use of your Mission will make clear patterns, trends and opportunities that would otherwise appear as random, unconnected events. Instead of just being "lucky", you will quickly be able to accomplish miracles... because that's what you were always destined to create! 

7. Use your Mission as the final decision criteria 

Every decision in your life is a choice between regret and happiness. As you learn to use your Mission as your final criteria for all your decisions, you will naturally find more happiness in life. Regret comes from your unconscious longing to satisfy your Mission... if what you're doing now is not allowing you to experience your Mission, you have two choices: reframe what you're doing to be more in alignment with your Mission, or choose to stop right there. The more you use your Mission to make choices that are right for you, the more you will find that real success is effortless, because you are doing what comes naturally, and you don't have to force it!. You will be able to avoid regretful situations, and turn every decision into happiness. 

8. Maximize your physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health.

Your physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health determine your capacity to fully live your Mission. The more health you experience in all aspects of your life, the more you are able to live your Mission. Make your health your priority, and you will find that life take a lot less effort. 

9. Arrange your environment so it promotes your Mission 

Everything in your environment should reinforce your Mission in life. Block out everything that causes you to doubt your Mission, especially the media (including television and news). Surround yourself with quotes, sayings, reminders of your Mission. Collect reminders of your successes, your essence, your personal brand. 

10. Use your Mission Statement as a launch point for deeper exploration. 

Mission work is a never-ending journey, where each new realization adds to your happy and successful fulfillment of life. The Mission Statement process you have just gone through is just the start of this process. Use the insights that you have gained to continue on your path...there are many books, courses and experiences you can use to propel you on your path. Take the time to explore your Mission Statement with your local spiritual leaders (pastor, priest, rabbi). True mastery of life comes with making exploration of your Mission job number one. Use every experience, big or small, as an opportunity to apply your Mission, and you will discover true happiness and success in every moment.
