Ever Better Today:
Season 2 Episode 13
Geographic Brainstorming
Welcome to Ever Better Today: the daily podcast for creating your optimal business, career, or overall life in ten minutes or less. I’m Lisa Conners Vogt, Executive and Leadership Coach and founder of Ever Better Coaching and Consulting. Let’s jump in!
Notes from this episode are below.
Our behaviors are impacted by what we see and experirence in our environment every day. Consider mentally switching up your geography to see how that might impact or affect your life and decisions..
Do this mental exercise:
Think about a goal that you want to achieve.
Consider the options that you've already come up with to reach your goal. Notice that the options are informed by your previous experiences, the people around you, and social and behavioral norms based on where you live.
Now, imagine that you are living in a city with a completely different vibe and energy. How would your actions and mindset shift to match what’s happening there?
Block time on your calendar to put yourself in the mindset of someone in that location. For inspiration, watch a travel show such as Parts Unknown or Rick Steves’ Europe. (See links below.)
