6 Ways to Live Your Best Life & Better the World

We've all felt it.  That urge to be MORE of who you really are. To give MORE value to people you love working with. To have MORE while working less. To have MORE opportunities to live-work-play in multiple amazing destinations!

Be mindful and take note (literally - write it down!) of where you are today. On a scale of 1 (being low - it feels like work all the time) and 10 (being high - it feels easy or like play all the time), what is your current energy level related to:

1. Your physical self.  How often are you physically able to do the things you want or love to do? For hours at a time?  Occasionally? Rarely?
2. Your emotional self.  Are you are experiencing agitation, frustration - or worse...the start of resentment in a work or personal relationship?  If so you are probably on a scale of >4.  Do you feel like you are 'spinning your wheels' in the same routine, with people who don't see or feel things the way you do? Maybe you wrote down 5-6.  Do you feel in control of your emotions? Or let them flow through you freely in full expression? Perhaps you wrote down 7+.  
3. Your mental self.  How easy is decision-making for you?  How much time do you spend planning everything out to the last dotted "i" or crossed "t"?  Do you ever find yourself in 'analysis-paralysis' - overanalyzing or overthinking a situation until no solution and course of action is decided upon within a natural time frame?  Chances are you wrote down a number >6. Does serendipity or good fortune seem to happen to you a lot? You probably wrote down 8-10.  
4. Your work self.   On a scale of 1-10, consider: Are you where you want to be in your job, career, or entrepreneurial pursuits?  Are you enjoying the work you are doing with people?  Are results coming to you easily?  Are you feeling adequately rewarded for your efforts?  Do you feel a sense of personal fulfillment? How confident do you feel that you are contributing to a better world? Do you radiate energy, clarity, and a clear direction for others on how they can engage in the work you do?    
5. Your philosophical self.  Do you feel marginalized, controlled - or worse, defeated, by the people who you've chosen to influence you?  If so, maybe you wrote down >4.  Do you sometimes find yourself trying to 'sell' your philosophies or ideas to others?  Perhaps you wrote down 4-6.  Or do you have a mindset that works, feels liberating, doesn't generate negative emotion and insecurity, and doesn't involve too much control from outside?  Likely a 7+.
6. Your spiritual self.  How much of the god-force do you have in you?  How often do you find yourself negatively thinking or feeling 'oh my god' (or similar)? Come on - we've all done it. Perhaps when you are watching the news or listening to people rant on social media; and you say to yourself or out loud, 'Oh my god, are you kidding?  Is that really happening over there?'  If you do this a lot - it may even consume you or be an addition - you probably wrote down five or less.  How often do you find yourself positively thinking or feeling 'oh my god' (or similar)?  Perhaps when you are consuming knowledge/insights from sources you love.  Perhaps you have MORE than your fair share of 'aha' moments - from external or internal sources.  You likely wrote down 6-10.

So, back to that urge.  That urge to be MORE of who you really are. To give MORE value to people you love working with. To have MORE while 'working' less. To have MORE opportunities to live-work-play as you want to.  

To be, give or have MORE, it starts with YOU!  

It starts with raising YOUR energy. It starts with deciding for yourself that enough-is-enough of accepting the status quo of 1's, 4's, or 6's. It starts with committing to move beyond your status quo and aim for 10's.   The closer you get to 10's in the above (and other) measures of life, the more enrichment you'll feel for yourself, so you can go out and enrich the lives of others - at home, in your workplace, and in your community.

We KNOW this journey is not easy.  If it was easy, you would have done it for yourself by now.

And it is far from effortless. It is a tough journey; it takes work, discipline, and shifting your mindset and behavior. It may involve overcoming the ego and limiting beliefs, and it certainly involves shifting your physical & mental immune system and reframing how you show up in the world.

So who are we?  And where and how can I get help on the journey?  

First of all, the 'we' is NOT people that promise you the world. You can have this, you can have that...and its effortless.  Avoid them.  It is rarely effortless.  

And there are lots of "we's" in the world.  They are people who've been where you are now, have taken chances, done their own work and now offer physical, emotional, mental, business/career, philosophical, and spiritual coaching | consulting | products | services to others.  Find someone you can relate to. Someone who's energy you appreciate!  Someone who has been where you are now but they are 4-10x ahead of you in at least one or more areas of life.

If you have a particular focus area you want to work on, look for them in that field - e.g. physical fitness coach, mental health consultant, spiritual guide.  If you want to integrate them ALL, find someone who seems to have energy/flow in all areas of life AND look for people or organizations that self-subscribe as being "exponential".    

Take the time to listen to them; to invest in the experiences they offer; AND integrate the learnings for yourself.

You'll find a number of these people in the OpenExO community - they have signed up to 'Transform the World to a Better Future".  And one focus group in that community is the Exponential Individuals initiative. A growing community of people dedicated to providing inspiration, tools and training to "Make Human Optimization the Norm".  Many are certified, trained and passionate about supporting you on this journey.

So, when you are ready to TAKE ACTION, invest time and resources to 'Live Your Best Life and Better the World', we invite you to be inspired and guided to raise your #energy, reclaim your inner power, and gain clarity on how you can show up MORE to Live Your Best Life and Better the World, starting with these 6 Ways:
