This morning I wrote to Women Who WOW members about their own bad-assery, and I received back a flurry of affirmations & declarations from women who approached today with a WHOLE NEW VIBE. This lights me up!
(This is why I serve shots of #EntrepreneurialEspresso to my members — hot and fresh — every morning!)
But here’s the thing about bad-assery.
We ALL have at least one area of our lives in which we are TOTAL bad asses. An area of our lives where we consistently have a level of excellence that others aspire to achieve.
Maybe for you, that area of life is fitness or nutrition.
Or “making home.”
Maybe it’s a relationship with your spouse or your girlfriends.
Maybe it’s money-related (saving or earning.)
Maybe it’s fashion sense or decorating or cooking or organizing.
Whatever area of life that YOU have a certain “effortless” swagger going on… you can BORROW that BAD-ASSERY and apply it to ANY area of your life. This post will show you how.
First, examine the BELIEFS do you have around that area of your life. Chances are good that in whatever area of life where YOU are a badass, you believe that this area of life:
is important,
is worthy of your time,
is possible for you,
Next, consider the BEHAVIORS that contribute to your bad-assery in that area of your life. If you’ve achieved a level of excellence and confidence that alludes MOST other people (and we ALL have, in at least one area!) chances are good there are related BEHAVIORS that have become habits…
So, what BEHAVIORS contribute to your badassery? Maybe it’s regular workouts, or a weekly date with your money or a daily focus on your relationship?
Finally, what ELSE has built your bad-assery in this area? Do you approach that area with a certain energy or expectation? Do you have certain boundaries or routines in place that have helped you create a level of excellence?
To borrow Bad-assery from ONE area of life and bring it into another, you simply have to APPLY the same approach. You will simply examine what you believe and do in that area of excellence and BRING IT OVER to the area of your life where you are BUILDING bad-assery.
It will take time and practice.
But bad-assery CAN be borrowed and built.
Day by day.
In what area of life or business could YOU be building bad-assery?? And in what area of business or life are you ALREADY a bad ass?
