Mission Driven

January 23, 2021 by Michaeline

When you are driven by your mission decision making and action planning can become clearer.

As I have updated my mission statement over the last several weeks, I have recommitted to focusing on those things that are important to me. And I plan to take a page out of Benjamin Franklin’s book as I go through 2021 with integrity in mind. I will work on being mission focused each month with a particular attention to one concept.

I am excited to share my mission with you. [Read more…]

Mission Statement Tips

January 16, 2021 by Michaeline

Last week I shared that I was planning to review my mission statement and suggested that you join me in that journey.

What did you learn?

I learned:

  • I play many roles and that I have found it challenging to blend them for balance and/or focus.
  • I continue to like using several concept statements versus a paragraph for my statement.
  • I have not looked at my mission statement since last January and, therefore, I need to add a task to do that at least monthly if not weekly when I do my planning.
  • I would have been able to make quicker/calmer decisions over the last several months if I would have reviewed my mission statement first.
  • That many of the statements need to be adjusted slightly based on the current environment/circumstance.

So, the plan is to spend some more time with updating my mission statement.

Here are some tips that can help if you too will be updating your mission statement. [Read more…]

Grounded by Mission

May 23, 2020 by Michaeline

Why would I even think about talking about a personal mission statement during chaotic times? Why not?

Having a personal mission statement, as I have talked about in the past, is a powerful thing because it sets the foundation for all your actions and keeps you on the right path when it comes to life choices.

Having a clear vision, core purpose and values, tells you what is important to you. And, especially during times of chaos, it can help ground you and assist you in aligning your actions to those things. Your mission statement should pull those pieces together for you so that you can stay on course even in challenging times.

So, if you haven’t already written a personal mission statement, my hope is that you will pick up pen and paper and do so today. If you have already done so, then pull it out and review it to see if any changes are warranted. And then start to focus on the things that truly matter to you.

Abundantly Clear

May 9, 2020 by Michaeline

These are unprecedented times. Reflecting on my choice of the word abundant for 2020 as well as the task of sheltering in place for the last several weeks have made some things abundantly clear to me.

What has become clear for me is that life is more about creating memories and interacting with loved ones than things. And that abundance takes on a whole new meaning when there is a pandemic happening.

What is most abundantly clear to me now, is that having the opportunity to pause, helps one reflect on what is important to you. It helps sharpen the saw on mission and vision.

And that gratitude must be a pillar of our focus as well as self-care. That the busyness in life is something we allow and tolerate. And if we just slow down a little bit, we can have more riches than we can count.

In an abundant appreciation for you, my reader.  Stay well.

Thoughts on Creating Resolutions

January 5, 2019 by Michaeline

Stuck is a choice.
No decision is a decision.
A goal without a plan is just a dream.

As we begin a new year, I was pondering the above in the context of making resolutions.

I think that the start of a new year is a good time, before making resolutions, to look at your mission, vision and values. This can help add focus to your goal (resolution) setting. I would propose that we sometimes set our goals for others or set them based on what we think would we should do without regard to our mission and values. So, I ask what would be possible if we aligned our goals (resolutions) to with mission, vision and values?

Then I would suggest that you need to decide to start by making daily decisions to move forward. You have a choice about the actions you take daily will move you toward your goal and this includes taking a step outside your comfort zone to get unstuck.

I also I don’t want you to get me wrong, I think you should regularly dream and dream BIG. Yet in order to make your dreams a reality you must act.

How do your goals (resolutions) align to your mission, vision and values? Are you set to make your resolutions stick?
