Recently I've been thinking about how I practice self-reflection.

Here's why I think it's important for personal growth and peak performance.

I've been using self-reflection for over 25 years now. It's incredibly powerful. Sometimes the way my perspective changes is certainly transformational.

If you want to know how self-reflection has changed my performance, here are three big shifts:

↳ The habit of pausing before reacting.
🤔 This has allowed me to respond thoughtfully. I do this in both personal and professional contexts.

↳ Keenness to get a deeper understanding of others’ perspectives.
👥 This has led to better creative collaborations.

↳ A shift from a problem to outcome mindset.
🌱 This enables me to see challenges as opportunities for growth.

Self-reflection has helped me achieve new levels of performance, so why should you care about it

🚀 Here are some key benefits you might experience:

- Better mindset and state management for crucial collaborations.
- Clarity and reduced mental clutter leading to stress reduction.
- Handling your responses to unexpected changes.
- Connecting your daily activities with your long-term ambitions.
- Improved decision-making and evaluation of choice implications.

If you decide to start practicing self-reflection, let me know — I'd love to connect with you (and answer any questions you have getting started!).

Not convinced yet?

Let's put it to the test with a quick challenge:

1️⃣ Set aside 10 minutes a day for self-reflection.
2️⃣ Ask yourself:

3️⃣ Do this consistently for a week.

Give this a shot and see how it transforms your performance 🔥

“Why do you write all this stuff?” She asked. Fair question and a simple answer. I get clearer when I write my thoughts down. I’m not writing to persuade you. I’m writing to persuade myself. I’m writing to see things differently. Sometimes when the writing seems useful

Does consultative selling work with public sector clients?

Does consultative selling work with public sector clients? In my last post, I recommended Consultative Selling by Mack Hanan. Reading the book, you’d be forgiven for thinking it’s all about commercial business. The language is all about profit improvement. Hanan puts that at the core of client conversations.
