3 Questions to Ask When Reinventing Yourself

Life is different now. We’re close enough to the “old normal” and that can feel like torture! You might feel yourself longing to be back to “the way things were” and adjusting to our “new normal” feels like a daily, sometimes moment-to-moment process. The opportunity within all of this unruliness is that we get an opportunity to ask “what’s working for me?” “What’s not working for me?” “What used to work that is no longer serving me?” I could end the blog there since I just rattled off three questions but let’s keep going…

I feel like we’re all in the eye of a storm. We can feel the chaos going around us and we know that once the storm settles, we’ll have to take our first steps toward wherever it is that we need to go next. I’ve been wondering about those next steps. Who do I want to be? How do I want to show up after the storm?

Reinvention of self isn’t just for celebrities anymore. We all have an opportunity to pull a Beyoncé-turned-Sasha Fierce. And you want to know what’s important to know about our own reinvention? It doesn’t have to be so dang dramatic. Maybe yesterday you were crabby, snarky and rude and today you want to be a little less crabby, snarky and rude. WOW. Whether it feels like it to you or not, that is a miracle to acknowledge what wasn’t working and to put out a desire to show up differently.

3 Questions to Ask When Reinventing Yourself:

  1. What three celebrities, role models, teachers, etc., do you most aspire to be like? List out the reasons why. Pick one trait to emulate more of today.

  2. What is your superpower - the thing you bring to the table that if you could just share that gift with the world ALL THE TIME the world would be a better place?

  3. If you had 10 years and unlimited resources to reinvent yourself, what would your self/life be like at the end of 10 years (note differences and similarities to your current self)?

Remember that soon enough we will all walk out of the eye of this storm and I hope you will do so brighter than before.

Love,
