“There is no passion to be found playing small, in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living.”
Nelson Mandela
Life is a series of choices. Everyday, we are given the opportunity to make new choices that align with our values and goals. Our choices can range from something simple, such as getting out of bed or hitting the snooze button when your alarm rings (often not that simple), to changing jobs, starting a new business, leaving a relationship, or relocating to another city.
The bottom line is that you have the choice to share your best self with the world everyday. Jim Collins, in the book, Good to Great, artfully points out that, “greatness, it turns out, is largely a matter of conscious choice.”
The question is: what does your personal greatness look like?
Seeing the greater possibilities for your life takes courage, honesty, and requires that you turn your ideas into action. This is where life gets challenging! What emerges is the concept of Living in Your Top 1%, my first book.
A key distinction with this phrase is to realize that living your best life is about living in YOUR top 1% rather thanTHE top 1%. It’s not a contest, and it’s not a comparison. Oprah, in an interview with Sheryl Sandberg, the COO of Facebook, powerfully shared that it is possible for every person, whether you are a gardener, assistant, manager, mom, or CEO, to reach his or her highest potential, regardless of the starting place.
Living in your top 1% is seeing your world filled with potential and possibility. It’s about having a vision, making progress in key areas, and understanding that small shifts in mindset produce powerful shifts in behavior. It is not dependent on your age, the size of your bank account, or your education.
Top 1% moments are defined by the feelings of fulfillment, excitement, and happiness that come from the experience of reaching for your best, rather than the accomplishments alone. Living in your top 1% is about seeing the world with an “I can” and “what’s possible” mindset.
Living in your top 1% is a continuous journey, rather than a race with a start and finish. You celebrate wins along the way and always seek out ways to improve, expand your thinking, and take on new challenges. Your top 1% level is dynamic and constantly evolving. True top 1%ers always looks for ways to raise their game and ask, “Am I living up to my greatest potential?”
Living in your top 1% embraces nine important rituals. Here are three:
1. Be the CEO of You, Inc.
One of the best ways to lead an empowered life on a daily basis is to start with your most important asset—you.You, Inc. represents all the different areas of your life, including career, relationships, finances, healthy living, fun and creativity, and personal growth. You need to invest in and be mindful of each of these areas to present your best self on a daily basis. The key theme is that you are in the driver’s seat (not someone else).You, Inc. is the most important business you will run because it’s your life and you need to take an active role in all the decisions. This means making yourself a priority, taking responsibility for your actions, and not being afraid to say “NO” or “YES” in different situations. Before we can truly be a leader for others, we need to be a leader for our own life.
What impact could you make if you made yourself a priority on a consistent basis?
