  1. You are a Living Being with Limitless Potential. <\/strong><\/li>
  2. You have the capability to surprise Yourself.<\/strong><\/li>
  3. No one Knows You better than You – Yourself.<\/strong><\/li>
  4. Are you spending time ON yourself?<\/strong><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
    1. Limitless Potential<\/strong>: “Are you working to your potential”. This is what we constantly hear. How about challenging this and asking “Are you working On your Potential?” <\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      How?<\/strong>: Brain has the ability to Build New connections \/ New Habits. This is stored in our Non Conscious brain which unlike our Thinking Brain consumes less energy & has Limit-less capacity. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Ask yourself “Are you Building New Habits & accessing them by tapping your Non-Conscious Brain”<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      2. Capability to Surprise yourself<\/strong> : A few real life examples include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      a. BucketFeet :<\/strong>
      \u201cEvery day, I force myself to do something that is out of my comfort zone. If I hadn\u2019t left my comfort zone back in 2008 to buy that one-way ticket to Buenos Aires, I never would have met my business<\/a>\u00a0partner, Aaron Firestein, and BucketFeet would never exist.\u201d
      –Raaja Nemani, co-founder and CEO of<\/strong>\u00a0      BucketFeet<\/a>, a footwear brand that was founded in 2011 after a chance meeting between two travelers. It has grown from one hand-decorated pair of shoes to a brand that has collaborated with over 20,000 artists in more than 100 countries <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      b. Skimlinks :<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \u201cIt emboldens your imagination, gives your mind respite, and arms you with tactics on creating motivating, inspiring messaging. Don’t be afraid to take time out to free your mind from the strictures of reality.\u201d
      –Alicia Navarro, CEO of<\/strong>\u00a0      Skimlinks<\/a>, a content monetization platform integrated with more than 20,000 merchants and processing more than 300 million clicks a month on more than 1.5 million sites around the world <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      3. No One Knows You Better than You – Yourself <\/strong>: There is an active debate raging whether Feedback helps. Brain – Based Coaching speaks about ” Feed-Forward” as against Feedback. The focus is on celebrating your Learning’s rather then someone telling you what to do. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Do read Harvard Business Review – March – April 2019 : Article ” Why Feedback Fail” <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      4. Are you Spending time ON yourself :<\/strong>
      “There is No Substitute For Hard Work” – Thomas Edison <\/strong>
      The Question here therefore is “Are You working ON yourself, WITH your self FOR Yourself”? . <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      How?<\/strong> The Key to this is <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      1. Attention Density : Focus x Time x Energy <\/strong><\/li>
      2. Implementation Intention. <\/strong> <\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

        <\/strong>
        History Shows <\/strong>: Successful Leaders constantly work on themselves & surprise themselves ( and others). It that that aura of surprise which others see it as “Tangible Outcome”. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Finally<\/strong> : As Humans, Life has given us an amazing opportunity to surprise ourselves….“Are you Seizing that Opportunity”<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

        <\/p>\n\n\n\n

        ” Work On Your Thinking”<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
