Scary Times Primer or How to Get your Confidence back! Part 3

Well here we are already, part 3 of our Scary TImes Primer! Thanks to Dan Sullivan ,one of my mentors and clients. At New PRimetime.com,

we believe this is the best time to step up as the leader you can be. There has never been a better time for the midlife generation to step

up and take on this role. Today's turbulence is tomorrow's opportunity and calmness- if there is leadership!

7. Forget about who you were, focus on who you can be. Many people define themselves by external circumstances. When these abruptly or unexpectedly change, they don’t know who they are, so they keep trying to be who they used to be. From now on, take your cues from the inside — from your dreams, ideals, values, and operating principles. These need never change, regardless of the circumstances. Take advantage of external confusion to become self-directed, self-managed, and self-motivated. 8. Forget about events, focus on your responses. When things are going well, many people think they are actually in control of events. That’s why they feel so defeated and depressed when things turn bad. They think they’ve lost some fundamental ability. The most consistently successful people in the world know they can’t control events — but continually work toward greater control over their creative responses to events. Any period when things are uncertain is an excellent time to focus all of your attention and energies on being creatively responsive to all of the unpredictable events that lie ahead. Last two tomorrow! We hope you are enjoying these as much as we are sharing these messages of inspiration and hope!
