Two Types of Approach to Achievement Mastery.

Which of the two below, do you most focus on?

At some point in our lives, we've likely all got sucked in by our ego. For instance, we felt thrilled when we got recognized for our strengths and accomplishments.

But what happens when their recognition goes onto others, and soon we were left with our projects?

When that happens, Ego lets us down. We are reminded here that when we focus on our Ego, we quickly feel let down and discouraged. Welcome, to Ego Orientation. It is focused on external rewards. This is one reason we lose motivation quickly.

Now, on the other hand, let's look here at the opposite of Ego Orientation. Let's visit Mastery Approach.

In contrast, Mastery Approach comes from Intrinsic rewards. Our passion and internal desires are our sustaining motivators.

With Mastery Approach Coaching, we focus on intrinsic values that are led by our inner amazing curiosity for what is possible.

A major benefit of the Mastery Approach is that we move away from FOCUSING ON the outcome. Thus, instead of worrying or, feeding "what if thoughts", we get to master our crafts. And we enjoy our journey and the process on the way to our end result!

In closing, I encourage you to invite curiosity, participation, and internal motivation to be your biggest motivators!

Enjoy the process. Feel free to share, below with others, what motivates you through setbacks and challenges. Thus, keep going until you get to your end destination goal.

Gratitude is Key is Stress Reduction!

Is your summer stress possibly caused by comparing yourself to 'others, highlight-reel of their happiness level because they seem to have a perfect life? And, they are happily telling you how they "are oh so busy"!

I encourage us all to stay aware of when we are getting on the "rollercoaster of comparisons". Esp when we're reading social media posts. Here's why:

1. Research shows we must be careful when viewing social.
2. Use caution to not compare yourself to others, and other's lives because studies show, self-comparison can cause us to feel worse.

In closing, remember to stay focused on gratitude for our lives.
