7 days to a new goal - Day 1

By AAN team | 29 Jan 2018

Performance Breakthrough Coach Jensen Siaw shares how to embark on a journey of setting your sight, planning your route, and building a strong ship (in your mind and heart) to bring you to your new goal.

This ship will help you to keep on course, manoeuvre through rough seas, negotiate difficult corners, and weather storms to reach your destination.

On each of the 7 Days, you will learn a Lesson and undergo an Exercise to help you progress along this journey. You could choose to complete this 7-Day journey within any time period, but do not take too long. After all, commitment and consistency are keys to personal growth and transformation.

Thus, Jensen recommends that you complete it in 7 Days, a day at time.

DAY 1: DISCOVERING WHO YOU THINK YOU ARE

Learning points:

Who you think you are affects how you live your life

Who you think you are affects how you do things, how you respond or react to situations, how you manage your relationships, how you study, how you work, how you perform, and how much you achieve.

You are not who you think you are

You are who you are today because of your past memories and experiences that are the foundations of your beliefs and values. Since your past memories and experiences have created the YOU today, then is today’s YOU the real YOU? Or there is another YOU?

You can be who you CHOOSE to be

Since your past memories and experiences have programmed your beliefs about yourself today, then just like a computer programmer who could create an updated version of a software, you could “update” your beliefs about yourself and reprogramme a new you, isn’t it?

Yes you can, and again, by CHOICE.

Below, you will find an exercise to help you discover who you think you are. Do the exercise right now, that’s right. It will only take less than 5 minutes, and that is all you need to discover beyond what you know about yourself.

Ready?

Day 1 Exercise

Write down 15 to 20 points about YOURSELF by filling in the blanks below.

Do this as quickly as you can by writing down WHATEVER that comes to your mind.

There is no right or wrong answer, just write down WHATEVER that comes to your mind without judgment or rationalising.

The faster you complete this exercise by writing down WHATEVER that comes to your mind, the more you will discover. Ready? Let’s go.
