The Strategy

Here are my 5 strategies for becoming the CEO of your life: 

1 Shape your CEO identity -  It is time to claim your identity as the CEO of your life. This is you stepping into the most powerful and impactful leadership role of your life.

2 Shape Your vision – This is the ‘what’ 

When did you last allow yourself to dream? I know that you might be a bit rusty in terms of dreaming big about your own desires so here are three basic questions to get you started: · 

Who do you want to be? · 

What do you want to do? · 

What do you want to have? 

You are the CEO so you can shape this however you want to. 

3 Your mission statement

Now it’s time to write your mission statement. Your mission statement is the short statement that you will use as the compass that moves you in the direction of your big vision. It is the ‘how’ you are going to do something. 

4 – Your values  Your values are your compass. They underpin your leadership identity which is about being authentically you. Your values are your navigation system.

5 – Strategy – Time to take action and be accountable Being the CEO of your life means you need to make decisions and take action.

The Soul

Ask yourself:

• Where in your life are you still waiting for permission?
• If you were the CEO of your life, what’s one thing you would stop tolerating?
• What would your future self — the one who’s living the life you desire — thank you for doing today?
• If your life was your company… would you promote yourself? Or would you need to make some serious changes?

This shift into personal leadership isn’t about making yourself wrong for what has come before, it’s about honouring the vision that’s been quietly waiting for your attention.
