Welcome to your first challenge
You had enough curiosity and openness of mind to take the Rule Finder Quiz, and perhaps you’ve discovered that you’ve been following the rule, Be Popular. Now you’re ready to explore what you can do about it.
You’re in the right place.
Humans are visionary.
Whatever circumstance we’re in, we long for its highest potential to be realized. We want the best possible thing in our families, intimate relationships—for our companies, communities, and for our careers.
That visionary part of us is ready to boldly pursue change.
But humans have been known to resist and in some cases even eliminate those who strongly advocate for change, and so visionary thinking and action requires tremendous courage. If we promote change the wrong way in our human tribe, we can find ourselves abandoned by it, which is a frightening prospect.
This makes following the rule Be Popular look like a safe and compelling strategy. The problem is, when we disconnect from our vision we lose contact with what could be our highest contribution to others.
Want to break the rule Be Popular and reconnect to your vision?
Here’s the Challenge
Restore your vision
This simple challenge for breaking the rule Be Popular will help you reconnect to your purpose and the possibilities you most wish to serve.
Pull out your favorite writing tool to engage this quick exercise.
You’re going to consider one simple question, in relationship to four areas of your life.
The questions are:
What’s the highest possibility I see with my family that isn’t yet true?
What’s the highest possibility I see with my career that isn’t yet true?
What’s the highest possibility I see with my partner that isn’t yet true?
“What’s the highest possibility I see with my friendships that isn’t yet true?
Give yourself the time and space to go into as much detail as you wish in answering each of these. There is no right response in terms of length, content, or clarity. Simply let yourself explore the question and record what arises. This is just for you to reconnect to your highest vision in each of these areas. You don’t need to show it to anyone else or do anything with the result.
Just explore what’s there for you.
