A new way of living

~ by Irmi L


Tomorrow morning I want you to start a new way of living:

Tell each cell in your body that, starting tomorrow there will be *stand-ups first thing after waking up.


Each system needs to come ready with their intentions for the day, as well as their status report. You, as the fearless leader of your body, must come with something motivating for the troops. Don't neglect this duty. They look up to you for leadership, and the way you've been talking with yourself lately moral is bound to be low.


Like with any new implementation of agile methodology, the first few mornings will be rough and some departments won't even send a reporting representative. Meet anyway. In time they will learn that you do want to help them and lead them.


Your happiness depends on your ability to align your outside actions with your inside thoughts and beliefs. If there are false beliefs stopping you from thriving, the only way you'll know is if you stop to listen to your insides. Do this every morning. I promise you don't need a sixth sense to do this. Just listen to your breath at first. The rest comes all by itself.


PRO TIP: if the result comes thick and fast and you feel overwhelmed, slow it down by writing. Grab a pen and paper and write. Yes, this is me giving you permission to buy stationary.
