Summary
In this episode, I dive into the role of extrinsic and intrinsic fear in creating mid-year doldrums in our minds. I am to offer an alternative way to look at remaining year, and the opportunity it brings.
These 'what have you achieved by mid-year' prompts can lead us down a spiral of self-criticism and feelings of insufficiency. I talk about importance of intentions as opposed to goals. By focusing on intentions, we introverts feel more empowered and purposeful in our quest for growth, without succumbing to externally imposed expectations or experiencing cognitive dissonance between personal values and professional demands.
Intention setting is where fulfillment and alignment flourishes.
Key Points
Focus on intentions before goals
Align actions with your principles/values
Reduce fear of failure through being pragmatic
