Welcome to the first edition of 3 To Thrive! Check back regularly as I share three terrific resources I’ve discovered to help you work with meaning, live with purpose, and thrive all around. Be sure to connect on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter for more of my recommendations, too. Enjoy!
This week’s 3 To Thrive:
1. Habits. Struggling to keep your goals for the new year moving forward? Check out this Stanford University psychologist’s suggestions for developing habits that stick. I love the idea of “tiny habits” as well as the accompanying celebrations.
2. Focus. What is your vision for 2017? What do you want to say about your work, leadership, and life at the end of the year? This article by Karin Hurt of Let’s Grow Leaders provides a “fresh, fun, and fast way to focus” along with terrific prompts to clarify your vision. (ASPIRE Success Club members, consider using these ideas to expand on the activity we did in our January meetings!)
3. Kindness. Looking for cutting edge practices to grow your business, expand your reach, and make your workplace a highly-sought-after one? Here’s a pro tip: Be kind. As this World Economic Forum article shares, kindness and caring – often considered “soft skills” – have concrete business outcomes. Treat people well and you’ll see the results, both internally and externally.
Here’s to your meaningful work and purposeful life!
