Are you playing in the wrong game?

Home Work Are you playing in the wrong game?

February 10, 2023 by alyson

For 20 years I grew my career without realizing I eroded my self-worth.

20 years of the corporate hustle inevitably left me like this:

– Measuring my importance by my title.

– Freaking out over the smallest mistakes.

– Watering down my ideas for fear of being rejected.

– Responding to negative feedback with anger or embarrassment.

– Staying quiet when I wanted to speak up.

My confidence was reinforced by the way people perceived me.

As long as people thought highly of me, I thought highly of myself.

As a result, I – – –

Treaded carefully through conversations,

Aimed for constant perfection, and

Accommodated others even at the cost of myself.

I was winning at my career, but something felt empty.

That’s when I took a step back and realized –

I was trying to win in a VERY SMALL GAME.

A game where I advanced by abandoning myself.

The moment I stopped playing by those rules, I changed the game completely.

Today, I play whole-heartedly in a much bigger game.

TRUTH

COURAGE

PURPOSE

JOY

These are the new rules:

1 Finding my power and worth through purpose.

2 Shrugging off little mistakes and learning from the big ones.

3 Sharing my ideas and passion with others, daily.

4 Responding to negativity with curiosity.

5 Speaking up as a voice of change.

Do you want to test these rules for yourself?

Here’s a worksheet you can download to help you do that.

Remember this – – –

If you don’t like the game you are playing, you have the power to create a new one.

Elevate your power by elevating the game, and you will start winning on a whole new level.

Xo,

Alyson
