Project Nof1’s Post

Stop! Now take a moment to read this post and consider the journey and destination. This was introduced during a recent Engagement to a group of investors at each phase. It was powerful and provides clarity regardless of maturity. Thought I would share.

Great one-page life journey view for graduates, from Ray Dalio

I’m at a stage in my life where my goal is to pass what I’ve learned along to others, and I often get asked for my advice for young people in particular. You are beginning the journey that I’m ending. I want to show you what your journey will be like and how to plan for it. I have two free gifts that I believe will be invaluable for you, the Life Journey Exercise for Graduates and Principles for Success. Let’s start by seeing where you are in your life and look ahead to what you can. To do that now, look through these phases and what happens in them. See where you are now. Look at what’s ahead for you over the next 10 years. Do the same exercise for those you love so you see where they are in their life. Now plan for these things. The choices you make at these junctures have big implications on the life that you will have. As you will see, the paths we take along the way affect the type of journey we have. If you’d like to experience an interactive version of the exercise, you can in the free Principles in Action app here: https://lnkd.in/eHpxK9kF If you’d like to learn about the principles that made me successful, you can watch the free video here: https://lnkd.in/gmn2iPw

Hello Everyone, 🎉 New Blog Alert! 🎉 I just published a new blog and am excited to share it! In this blog, I shared my real-life learnings around college time, and I think you’ll find it useful. Take a look and let me know what you think—I’d love to hear your thoughts! 💬 Link to the blog: http://bit.ly/46ZAh1D #Blogging #Learning #Growth #Innovation

It's Not About the Obstacles, It's About Your Willpower! 💪 . . . Many people say, "I can't focus on my growth because I have so much to do - a baby, family, and household chores." But these are precisely the things we can balance if we truly want to grow. I'm living proof that you can focus on your development, even with a 2-month-old baby, sleepless nights, and a home to manage. It's all about your determination! As a new mother, I decided to pursue an online post-graduation course from Henry Harvin to enhance my skills. 📚 I read books, watch videos, and dedicate 2 hours daily to personal growth. 🌱 My Learning:- If you want it badly enough, you will find a way. It's all about your willpower! #GrowthMindset #PersonalDevelopment #Willpower #NeverGiveUp #MothersWhoInspire #NewBeginnings

Get education!!! Don't underestimate where it can take you and I don't mean just formal education. I am talking about continuous personal development that aligns with your life purpose. ✅ What is your purpose in life? ✅ What must you do to achieve it? ✅ What will it cost you to achieve it? Pay attention to the last question. This is the part most of us always ignore. You must pay to achieve your dreams with your 📌 Energy 📌 Time 📌 Effort 📌 Money And you MUST pay for it UPFRONT Then the most important question of all is your WHY? Why do you want to do this? When you know WHY, the HOW will take care of itself.... Just as Jim Rohan once said... "The stronger the why, the easier the how becomes." Next Make this a long-term goal, at least 10, 5, and 3-year goals. The longer the goals, the more hunger you have and dedication to achieving them. Make sure your WHY is strong and realistic. Ever heard of SMART GOALS? 🏵️ Specific: Well defined, clear, and unambiguous 🏵️ Measurable: With specific criteria that measure your progress toward the accomplishment of the goal 🏵️ Achievable: Attainable and not impossible to achieve 🏵️ Realistic: Within reach, realistic, and relevant to your life purpose 🏵️ Timely: With a clearly defined timeline, including a starting date and a target date. The purpose is to create urgency. I hope this helps you to move from your comfort zone to taking risks from now (not 2025). #SMARTGoals #PersonalDevelopment
