When You Reframe This Feeling, You Will Be Better Equipped To Conquer Your Goals
MAIN TAKEAWAYS
- When thinking about your goals, consider the acronym RWID: Relative Weight of Importance and Duration.
- Ask yourself, “Are the weight of my thoughts bending towards my losses? How much importance do I place on them?”
- You are less likely to take action if you’re always thinking about what you can lose. You HAVE to start telling yourself a different story. Focus on what you can GAIN, not what you might lose.
- For example, if you’re worrying about losing money and failing, change it to: What if I make MORE money and have a better life than I imagined?
- When making your decisions, think about gaining fulfillment from doing something you deeply care about. Tell yourself that new story and new frame. You will BECOME a new person.
- Fears should always be contextualized towards your goals. Every fear can have a place when it is USEFUL on the path to your goals.
