Environmental Variables for Self Improvement
About this episode
What happened? You made a plan, you were putting in effort and you thought you were going to crush that goal. Why didn't it work?
Enter Environmental Variables, these often missed nuances can be the difference between success in personal development or the stumbling block of self-improvement.
For those people who check all the boxes: make S.M.A.R.T. goals, do their research, formulate a well thought out plan and act intentionally and consistently falling short is beyond heart breaking. You start to question if you are able to do anything right, then you start beating yourself up mentally and emotionally with negative self talk.
This is where a decent coach can actually be of use, you see sometimes we are too close to see the obvious. We miss things that are just normal parts of our life without thinking they might be setting up our failure. The short answer is identify and plan for these variables, but that might be easier said than done.
