What’s more Important - The Results or the Process!

Today I dug in deep to a challenge that I have carried with me for as long as I can remember, it has manifested itself on numerous occasions both in my health (weight in particular) and my finances, and that is how “consistency” shows up, I have always been really good at starting stuff full of enthusiasm, focus and throw myself into whatever it is at full speed, only to make my targets more and more extreme until they become almost impossible to achieve and then inevitably I “crash and burn” exhausted and frustrated. I have for instance tracked my weight and other health metrics using Fitbit for the last 10 years and the graph tells its own story 213lbs to 170lbs on numerous occasions, the same with my finances, none this is due to external circumstance ALL of it is of my own making when I dig in deep and think into the actions I took at the time.

Today I wanted to work on why this has been happening, and came to the realisation it HAS at its core how I see myself against my vision and goals, in other words my “identity” unless this identity is aligned and congruent with my goals and vision I will NEVER achieve my full potential, because like an elastic band when you stretch it and put it under pressure it will expand (or break!) however when you let go it simply revert back to where it started. So unless I start to “become” the person through daily inductive thinking and awareness then my results will always be as they are.

Now don’t get me wrong I have an amazing life, a beautiful wife, 5 daughters, 4 beautiful and fun grandchildren and incredible home, a business that’s challenging and making money, great friends, money and from the outside I look successful, however internally I feel stuck. frustrated and not fulfilling my potential, well that was until today when I started to properly think into all of this and re writing another version of my SIG (I have run through the SIG process a number of times!) it was a truly empowering process to have done because I realised that I finally had some answers that made sense to me.

I’m interested to know if I’m the only one on this planet that feels like this and has had these challenges? to answer my own question at the start of this post for me the process rather than the result is where it lies, both are important however we have to go through the process to get the results we all crave! Have a great week
