Question 1 – What’s your WHY?
Question 2 – Is what you are doing right now, 100% aligned to your WHY?
When we know our why and when we are aligned to our why, everything is in flow. When everything is in flow we are having fun, we are making money and we have rewarding businesses.
So let’s do this ……
To help you out, here’s a little video from the King of Why – Simon Sinek.

Now, it’s your turn. It might be a good one for the holidays or if you have time, get a head start this weekend.
I’ve been talking a lot about designing a business of your dreams and I really want you to start 2017 with that mindset. I don’t want you to be just dreaming about this, but I want you to make it a reality in 2017. Why have another year just going through the motions? Sometimes once we get clarity on what we want, we can then make that our focus and priority and make it happen.
There are 4 things I want you to think about and make some notes and I’ve prepared a little sheet so all you have to do is complete the blanks.
What are your:
- values
- talents
- skills and expertise
- passions
Don’t overthink the process and just start writing. Have a break for an hour or even a day and just sit with what you have wrote. Then come back to the exercise and add to it.
From what you have written down, can you pinpoint what your WHY is? What is your gift that lights you up and that you can share with the people that need it?
I hope this exercise inspires you to start living the business of your dreams so that you have an extraordinary life.
