What's Your Next Level?

It’s sunny out here in Eastern Nigeria, and I’m drinking a cold mug of fresh-yo blueboat yoghurt and thinking about where I am with business and life. How about you? What are you drinking?

What’s your next level?

You’re working on whatever matters to you and I bet you’re happy with what got you there. But have you been hanging on? Have you been working from the same place that got you to that point? How long has that been true? 

If you stuff your spare money in your mattress, inflation will make it worse less by the time you take it out again. If you lift the same weights at the gym, your muscles will adapt and you’ll see no progress. If you do what needs doing at work, you won’t advance. Most times, you’ll see everything deteriorate. 

Growth is A Daily Process

Your next level doesn’t magically show up one day. You don’t just do the time and then magically find yourself advanced. It requires stretching, pushing past your previous limits, and sometimes, breaking everything back down to the basics and rising back up again. 

Where are YOU with all this? 

Action: Test Yourself

Answer these six questions: 

1) Are you satisfied with where you are in your business?

2) Where are you staying the same? 

3) What has stagnated and needs review/killing/quitting? 

4) Where are you headed next? 

5) What do you need to get there? 

6) What’s step #1? 

Take a moment to think through this. It might not come immediately. But it’s really worth checking out and thinking through. I can tell you that the same exercise gave me a lot more to work on and found me some new ways to be more helpful to you! (Coming soon.) :) 

It’s early in the year. Let’s push forward together. Let’s grow and work on owning the game you most want to win. 

God bless you!
