be the CEO of your own life

Do you ever feel like you are not in control of your own life? Like you are just following someone else’s agenda, or reacting to whatever comes your way? Do you wish you could have more clarity, purpose and direction in your life?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, then this blog post is for you. In this post, I will share with you some tips on how to be the CEO of your own life. Being the CEO of your own life means that you are the one who sets the vision, goals and strategies for your life. You are the one who makes the decisions and takes the actions that align with your values and passions. You are the one who leads yourself and others towards a sustainable future.

Why is this important? Because we are living in a time of unprecedented challenges and opportunities. We are facing a global crisis that requires a human transformation. We need to shift from individualistic behavior towards a collective effort. We need to look at the (business) world with a holistic mindset. We need to create solutions that are good for people, planet and profit.

But we cannot do this alone. We need conscious leaders who are capable and willing to come up with ideas and actions to lead us out of this mess. We need courageous thinkers who can challenge the status quo and inspire others to do the same. We need brave do-ers who can execute their vision and make an impact.

Are you one of these conscious leaders? Are you ready to be the CEO of your own life?

If so, here are some steps you can take to start your journey:

  1. Define your vision. What is your purpose in life? What do you want to achieve? What kind of legacy do you want to leave behind? Write down your vision statement and keep it somewhere visible. Or watch our intro video on finding your values
  2. Set your goals. Based on your vision, what are the specific, measurable, achievable, relevant and time-bound goals that you want to accomplish? Break them down into short-term and long-term goals and prioritize them according to importance and urgency.
  3. Create your strategies. How will you achieve your goals? What are the actions that you need to take? What are the resources that you need? What are the obstacles that you might face? How will you overcome them? Plan your strategies and schedule them in your calendar.
  4. Take action. Now that you have your plan, it’s time to execute it. Follow through on your commitments and track your progress. Celebrate your wins and learn from your failures. Adjust your plan as needed and keep moving forward.
  5. Lead yourself and others. Being the CEO of your own life also means that you are a leader for others. You can influence, inspire and empower others to join you in your mission. You can share your vision, goals and strategies with them and invite them to collaborate with you. You can also seek feedback, support and guidance from others who can help you grow. So join our Club on LinkedIn to share and inspire others.

By following these steps, you can be the CEO of your own life. You can take charge of your destiny and make a difference in the world. You can be a conscious leader who creates a sustainable future for yourself and others.

Are you ready to take this challenge? If so, let me know in the comments below what is your vision, goals and strategies for being the CEO of your own life.

your purpose is found in your future

Finding your purpose isn’t that difficult. It just needs some imagination and self knowledge. Here are the three steps to define your purpose.

STEP 1

Start with imagining your ideal world – in 10 years from now. How would this Utopia look like? What would be different and do you see solutions to make this ideal world happen? For example, maybe your ideal world is one where everyone is happy, healthy and wealthy. Maybe you see a world where there is no war, no poverty and no pollution. Maybe you envision a world where humans and animals live in harmony, where technology is advanced and accessible, and where art and culture flourish.

STEP 2

Ask yourself how you can contribute, with all your typical human capacities, to accomplish this ideal world. What would be your role in this story? Which “holy” duty do you see for yourself? How do you want to be remembered? For example, maybe you want to be a leader, a healer, a teacher, a creator, a protector, a supporter or a challenger. Maybe you want to be known for your kindness, your courage, your wisdom, your creativity, your generosity or your humor.

STEP 3

If you have defined your role by now, think about which elements you need to integrate in each part of your life. What would be your daily focus, habits and tasks to fulfill your purpose? For example, maybe you need to learn new skills, meet new people, travel to new places, join new causes, start new projects or change old habits. Maybe you need to prioritize your health, your relationships, your passions, your growth or your impact.

And that’s it! You have just defined your purpose in three easy steps. Congratulations! Now go out there and live it! And remember: finding your purpose is not a one-time thing. It’s an ongoing process that evolves with you. So keep imagining, keep asking and keep integrating. And have fun along the way!
