In today's episode of Made to Thrive, Kim Walsh Philips talks about establishing your pleasure and leverage triggers. Set a goal that you want to complete in 4-weeks. Next, figure out what your reward will be if you GET the task done. Will you go to the spa? Or eat some chocolate? Next, establish your leverage trigger, too. What will you DO if you DON'T get your goal accomplished in four weeks? Will you dump paint on your car? Will you cut your beard off? Find BOTH your pleasure and leverage triggers.
0:21 – Welcome!
0:27 – I am incredibly blessed to run this inner circle of people who are mostly entrepreneurs. These are people that are working towards scaling their business. They have to work on their messaging, working on their landing page, and more! It's definitely a process. It doesn't happen overnight. There are coaching calls and a retreat at the end of the year. At the end of the retreat, we encouraged them to find the ONE thing that they want to accomplish in the next four weeks. They have to pick ONE thing to focus on.
2:02 – It's good to celebrate your small victories. We went around the room and shared our pleasure triggers. Some of the answers were going to dinner, getting a pedicure, going for a hike, etc.
3:20 – Pick, also, your leverage if you DON'T get it done. Sometimes we are triggered by the reward, but sometimes we are triggered by a consequence. For example dye your hair purple, cut your surfboard in half, cutoff your beard. Have accountability.
5:06 – You can go extreme with your leverage trigger or be subtler.
