Are you crying with a loaf of bread under your arm? When loss and disappointment take over your psyche, reframe it by seeing what you do have. Listen in to learn how to see the patterns of achievement and build on them from the inside out.
Learn to savor your accomplishments, not pick them apart to find the flaws or missing pieces.
Stop future tripping and only seeing what you haven't yet achieved.
See the blessing in failure and not getting what you think you want
When you focus on lack, you get more of it- catch and redirect it before it creates a cascade of effects in your system.
Look for the patterns that led you to where you are- they are the breadcrumbs that will lead you to your most successful becoming.

Hey you toiling away and not enjoying a minute of it- there's a better way. To:Scale founder and nextgen architecture student Sana Tabassum shares a new perspective on finding the career(s) you love.
Try everything so you know what you like
Be proactive about developing skills. Give yourself safe space to cultivate them in your off time.
Interview a prospective employer as much as they are interviewing you. Work where they'll let you find yourself and reach your highest potential.
Find role models doing things that interest you, even if they seem unconventional. Network with them and let them show you what's possible
Be willing to share your process. It's almost as important as the finished product (and a whole lot more interesting if you want to learn something).

Here's stress relief tip: take a break from people pleasing (or actively resisting it). It's time to start being unapologetic about who you are, what you stand for and invte others to join you- or not.
You can choose to be either in compliance, defiance, or acceptance.
Stop accepting the premise that you need to make others happy. Focus on being aligned and taking actions in integrity instead.
Drop the story about needing approval, or else. When you stand in your power as your authentic self- you shift from saying "look at me," to "come with me."
Stay Inspired,
Angela

Let's stop a bit to look at the "understood they." The dehumanization and villainization that comes from othering. Creating this separation lets us play the victim and make the success we see in others wrong all while limiting our own.
Like the grammatical understood you, understood they is an imperative. It creates separation between ourselves and others. We don't name our subject, just blame them.
Separation allows us to create a dichotomy- by making others wrong, we make ourselves a victim and give up our power.
Being a victim is a permission slip for inaction.
What if you could shift language from "me and them" to "we and us?"
When we are one, there can be no competition or jealousy. Instead, we can be in gratitude to those who are drawing our attention. We can thank them for leaving breadcrumbs of their path to success and even appreciate their mistakes for illuminating the pitfalls for us.

Stress is toxic. Our bodies evolved to react to perceived threats by giving us the physical stamina to escape. In today's world of chronic stress, that response is shutting down our access to the creative abilities and logical thinking we most need. And it's making us sick.
Take an energy inventory. Are you spending your time in the right places?
How can you turn your traumas and vulnerabilities into a superpower instead of a source of stress?
When you catch yourself in a stress response, use calming techniques to activate your parasympathetic nervous system.

Have you built your identity around external factors? Coach Aurora Meneghello shares how to get in touch with your deepest self so you can always take aligned action.
It's OK for your identity to evolve. The core of who you are stays the same, but doesn't need to be attached to outside indicators of identity.
When you are addicted to controlling, you lose resilience because you cannot control life
You become separated from your deeper self when you attach feeling good to success, security to money, and identity with your job.
When you are anchored with your deepest self, you can go anywhere and do anything without losing yourself.
Fear is a cue, not an end state- it is your indicator to look within and recalibrate so you can live from feeling good, not judgement.

Fear has many disguises; procrastination, perfectionism, control, busyness. In all cases, we are telling our dreams to sit in the back seat and shut up. As we celebrate the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. let's remember that dreams are what changes the world.
Take some time to get reacquainted with your dreams. How are they signals of your passion and purpose? Understand that they are not fantasies, but clues leading you forward.
Think about why you have suppressed taking action on your dreams. What fears are behind the abandonment? What's motivating you to make other things a priority instead?
Decide to take action no matter what, even when your dreams seem like they have no connection to your higher purpose.
There's lots of things we put in the too hard basket, but dreams should never be one of them.

There is an art to being self aware but not self absorbed. To being emapthetic to others without compromising your boundaries.
See your own emotional patterns from a point of detachment, not trigger. Understand that you need to consciously work to unravel these stories and the bias filter they place on how you perceive the world.
Understand that others have their own filter and be curious about why instead of reacting to their behavior based on assumptions.
Ask questions instead of creating a story based on your ego narrative.
Focus on the why more than the what. Provide people with an emotional exit ramp so you can move past excuses and defensiveness and focus on solutions.
Pick your battles. Seek alignment through purpose not tasks.
Work on completing your thoughts through meditation and journaling so that you can more easily recognize your own story patterns.

Likability is rooted in trust. Trust being that vibe you're laying down that others pick up on in mere nanoseconds. Learn how postures and facial expressions you may be unaware of are affecting your likability,
Show interest and attention by making eye contact, nodding, smiling and making positive gestures as someone talks. Make them your entire focus.
Before you start a meeting, take time to read the room so you can decide whether people need reassurance, encouragement, or a change to shine.
Make others feel seen and heard by asking for their thoughts or concerns. Avoid rushing through to stay on an agenda or get your own ideas out.
Be aware of your posture. Standing in a balanced, broad shouldered way with your hands at your sides shows confidence. Slouching, crossing your arms, fidgeting or hands in pockets are defensive stances that evoke distrust.
Mirror the speakers gestures to show affinity with their thoughts and thought patterns.

Ta-da! You did the thing. But at what cost and for what reason? This is your year to stop jumping through hoops and move forward with momentum and aligned action.
Stop emphasizing doing over being. Performance is not a measure of worth, accomplishing what only you can do is.
As "what is true for me?" When you follow your own path, you always have momentum even if you face setbacks. Failure is only catastrophic when you tie your success to someone else's approval.
Stop using busyness as an excuse not to dare greatly.
Ask for what you really want instead of playing games to avoid judgement.
Doing what you don't want to do to get approval is a lot like prostitution,
Climbing onto a pedestal through proving yourself is only asking to be knocked down the minute you make a mistake (and you will). Take your ego out of the equation and you'll never have to apologize for what you work to achieve even if things go wrong.
