Monday Challenge: The First Action Last week's Challenge/Reflection: We identified you goal for August, set your top x3 action steps, found the top-most impactful step, set a timeframe for completion, anticipated obstacles, and set-up accountability and support. The prudent planning is done. Now it's time to take action! Comment below: ○ What is your action step? ○ When will you have it done by? Keep your answers as brief as possible. Now go and do it! If you haven't completed August Challenge/Reflection #1 Do those first.

Wednesday Reflection: Locking In. Keep your answers short, one short sentence each or one word if possible. What is your goal for August? and what are your 3 action items that will move you closer to your goal? Of your 3 action items what's the one that will have the most impact on reaching your goal? What is a reasonable timeframe for you to complete this action item? What obstacles might you encounter? How can we avoid/prepare for these obstacles? What resources can you use to help you? How can you maintain accountability while taking this action? For extra accountability & support, comment your answers below. And don't skip any questions. 👇🏽 👇🏽 👇🏽

Monday Challenge: Locking In If You Don't Set the Direction, Urgency Will The Problem: Open your calendar from the last two weeks. How much of your time was spent moving toward a meaningful goal vs. putting out fires? Don't let urgency disguising itself as productivity. The Reality: If you don't intentionally choose your direction, your calendar/the fires will choose it for you. The Challenge: Before the week ends, write down: - Your desired outcome you want to create by the end of August, your goal.   - The next three actions that will actually move you toward that goal.   Not twenty actions. Three. Pick the top three things you can do to make the most progress toward your goal. Accountability: Tell us in the comments 1. Your Goal by the end of August. 2. Your next three actions to move you toward that goal.

Wednesday Reflection: Listening is Measured in Conversations Keep your answers brief, one-word answers if possible. Did you follow through? If Yes: Step outside of yourself and consider the other person. How did showing curiosity effect the other person? How did showing curiosity effect the conversation? If No: Look inside of yourself. Why not? What would make this easier to follow through next time? What is your biggest takeaway?

Monday Challenge: Leadership Is Measured in Conversations The Truth: Leadership isn't tested during easy conversations. It's tested during uncomfortable ones. The Opportunity: Every difficult conversation is an opportunity. Not to prove you're right. To prove you're the kind of leader people can trust. The Challenge: During the next conversation that feels uncomfortable. When it's your turn to speak and after you've confirmed your understanding, ask one genuine question instead of making one extra statement. Lean in with real curiosity. We're adding to the July Challenge #3 (https://www.skool.com/jpmc/july-challenge-3?p=b34c4466), taking it one step further. Accountability: How will you remember to do this? How will you hold yourself accountable. Write one sentence in the comments.
