Put happiness first
99-SECOND READ
'Putting yourself first is not selfish. Quite the opposite. You must put your happiness and health first before you can be of help to anyone else.'
Simon Sinek.
Are you focusing more on being happy every day or achieving your goals?
New Behaviour
Focus on being happy and enjoying every day, every moment.
Benefits
- You will show up as your best self
- You will make the people that you love happier
- You will achieve greater success
Necessary Mindset
Remind yourself:
- If I prioritise happiness, success will follow
- There's no point in being successful unless I'm happy
- Instead of using success as a key to happiness, I can use happiness as a key to success
Supporting Actions
- Do things you love every day
- Practice mindfulness so you can be present in the moment to find beauty in the little things
- Practice gratitude (you could write down five things you're for every morning, as I do)
- Prioritise enjoying what you do and doing what you enjoy at work and in your personal life

'I had a true breakthrough session with Simon. In just our first session together, he was able to identify the root fears blocking me and through his thought-provoking questions helped me come up with a solution to break that pattern.
I wasn't expecting this level of breakthrough in my first session with him, but was very pleasantly surprised! HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM to help unlock your highest potential!'
