Vocabulary: understand

To truly understand why yoga is so transformative, you first have to understand the concept of transformation. The idea that yoga changes you into someone better than the person you were before is something of a misconception. It is more accurate to say that yoga helps you remove the obstacles that obscure who you really are, that it helps you come into a fuller expression of your true nature. "We're not transforming into something we aspire to,". "We're transforming into the very thing that we are innately: our best Self."

Has yoga changed your life? It's pretty likely, since just about everyone who practices yoga has been touched in some way by its transformative power. Maybe you simply feel better in your body.

Just think about your email inbox for a minute. Where did those emails come from? They didn’t come from you. They came from all these other people who are sending you requests for work that they need to have done. By definition that means they’re not your goals. Does it mean they’re unimportant? No, if your boss sends you an email and asks you to do something, it well could become your goal. But it didn’t initiate as your goal. It started as somebody else’s goal. And as we begin to prioritize and focus on the value-added work that will make our goals a reality, we first need to decide who originated the goals that are taking up all our time. Are they yours or somebody else’s?

Vocabulary: time

Vocabulary: common

We recently asked over 1,500 leaders: “Did you successfully complete your goals for today?” and provided three responses to choose from: “Yes,” “No,” and “I have no idea.” The most common response was “I have no idea.” The problem is that too many leaders aren’t sure what their goals really are.

Vocabulary: myself

When I set personal goals, I ask myself this question:

“What can I accomplish over the next 90 days that will make me feel good about myself?”
