Today I was to listening one of the CDs which come with the Success Magazine which I subscribe to.
The April 2010 issue is all about leadership and the interview I listened to was with Robin Sharma who recently published The Leader Who Had No Title: A Modern Fable on Real Success in Business and in Life.
We all go through different chapters in our lives, and as changes occur it is always good to take time aside to reflect on exactly what we ARE doing with our lives.
Robin went through one of these times, and after much thought and reflection he came up with what calls the “Big 5″ (questions that he asked himself about his life).
Here are those 5 questions:
Wow – I am certainly taking these questions and applying them to my life. How about you?
What is your choice?
So many people do not understand that those who live extraordinary lives are enjoying this blessing because they CHOSE to live this way.
Are you choosing to live an extraordinary life? Or are you content to simply live an ordinary life?
Then Robin went on to comment that he also has what he calls a Daily 5. These are 5 questions he asks himself EVERY DAY the question:
Ordinary or Extraordinary?
Yes, you (and I) can decide what kind of day we will have, every day. Do you chose to have an extraordinary day today – or are you content to simply live “another ordinary day”.
One of the comments I hear so so much is “another day, another dollar”. Is that the language of an extraordinary life? No, no, no!
The language of the champion would be something like this:
What is your choice? Are you planning on living an extraordinary life or just an ordinary life?
What are you doing today to put your plan into action?
