Are You All In?
Recently I realised there were a few areas of my life and in business where I wasn't 'all in' - meaning areas where I wasn't 100% committed to what I was doing, the outcomes I was looking to achieve and the effort I was putting in.
I also realised that these were the areas of my life and business that I wasn't get great results in. And because I wasn't getting great results or outcomes, this just further added to my attitude of "why bother" & "there's no point" & "why put effort in here, when the outcomes aren't paying off".
But I also realised that these areas where I wasn't getting great results was actually my choice!
I wasn't putting the effort into these areas of my life - so how could I expect the results to be stellar?
So I decided to make a commitment to myself, my family and my business - to be 'all in' in every facet of my life.
When I'm with my wife and my kids - I'm all in! I'm right there, in the moment playing, engaging and being open and present.
When I'm with friends - I'm all in! Laughing and enjoying their company.
When I'm running my business - I'm all in! Creating content, building programs, working with my clients and generally having fun.
When I'm working with my clients - I'm all in! Working with them to help them learn, implement, develop and grow themselves, their teams and their businesses.
Now this might sound super tiring (or intense!) to you, but you know what - the results have been incredible! I feel more engaged, more energised and more alive than ever!
Now don't get me wrong - this isn't a 'life's perfect' post. There are still definitely ups and downs and things that don't work out and things that I get wrong. But in general, my decision to be 'all in' has put me on a path I never thought possible.
Now it's your turn.
What areas of your life do you feel like you're just going through the motions? What areas of your life are less than ideal? What areas of your life do you wish were better?
Now what does going 'all in' in these areas look like for you?
Are you being more engaged? More present? More interactive? More committed?
Try it for yourself. Have a go for a week at being 'ALL IN' in every aspect of your life and let me know how it goes and what kind of results you get.
After all – it’s your life so you get to choose how you approach it and the results you get!
