MISSION EVOLVES US AS LEADERS

Bringing your mission into reality can be a challenging process, but it's not impossible. One powerful technique that can help you is to act as if you are already the business you want to become. This may sound simple, but it can be a profound and transformative exercise.

The premise of acting as if is straightforward: imagine that you have already achieved your mission. Imagine that you are the successful business owner or leader you want to be. 

Then ask yourself, what would you be doing if you were in this position? 

What actions would you take? 

What habits would you have? 

What attitudes would you exhibit?

When you start thinking about what you would be doing if you were already the person you want to be, you may find that you are not doing some of the things that you would expect of yourself. This is where the real power of acting as if lives. It forces you to consider what you would be doing if you were in a different position, and it gives you the opportunity to start doing those things now.

For example, if you were already the successful business owner you want to be, you would likely have clear goals and expectations. You would have a system in place to hold yourself accountable and ensure that you are on track to achieve your goals. You would also have a strong culture and brand relationship, one that aligns with your mission and values.

So, if you're not doing these things now, why not start? 

Set clear goals for yourself, create a system of accountability, and focus on building a strong culture and brand relationship. These are the actions that successful business owners take, and by acting as if you are already one of them, you can start taking these steps yourself.

The benefits of acting as if are numerous. For one, it can help you develop a positive mindset and attitude. When you imagine yourself as the successful business owner you want to be, you start to see yourself in that role, and you develop a sense of confidence and belief in yourself. This can be a powerful motivator, and it can help you overcome any self-doubt or fears you may have.

Another benefit of acting as if is that it can help you create new habits and behaviours. When you start doing the things that you would be doing if you were already the business you want to be, you begin to internalize those behaviours, and they become habits. This can be a powerful way to evolve yourself and your business, and it can help you bring your mission into reality.

Finally, acting as if can help you bust the myth that execution is hard. 

Many people believe that achieving their mission is impossible, that it requires too much effort, or that they simply don't have what it takes. But when you act as if you are already the business you want to be, you start to see that execution is not as difficult as you thought. You begin to see that you can take small steps every day to move closer to your mission, and you start to see that you do have what it takes.

In conclusion, acting as if can be a powerful tool for bringing your mission into reality. 

By imagining yourself as the successful business owner you want to be, you can start to develop the habits, behaviours, and attitudes that will help you achieve your mission. So, ask yourself what you would be doing if you were already the business you want to be, and start doing those things now. With a little effort and commitment, you can bring your mission into reality.
