Sometimes when your car starts has an issue the engine light shows up on your dashboard.
That way you know its time to take it to the mechanic and make sure everything is working how it should.
Sometimes I wish we had something so clear as the engine light in our cars.
It would be so much easier to spot when we are starting to drift off track, and we would catch ourselves faster when it happens.
Obviously we don’t have an engine light in our brain lighting up, but there are a lot of clues telling us that we are losing our focus, and drifting away of our goals.
Things like:
• Feeling overwhelmed
• Procrastinating
• Saying "I'll do it tomorrow"
• Getting reactive all day
• Feeling tired
• Trying to do everything at once
The earlier you notice the warning sign, the easier it is to reconnect.
So before the weekend:
- What's one warning sign you noticed in yourself this week?
- What's one thing you'll do next week when it shows up again?
