Autopilot strengthens mental habits and rituals

Yesterday, this took my breath away for a moment.

You can’t solve your culture problem tomorrow when you are on autopilot; repeating what you did yesterday.

Talking about personal culture right now, as CEO of You, Inc.

Your attitude in particular, here at Mid Life Celebration, the “Mind” blog.

Indirectly, i’m thinking about a couple executives i coach – they are actually the CEO of their respective companies. They all want their organizational culture to be significantly more vibrant than it is now.

But.

Autopilot.

Gets.

In.

The.

Way.

Will your life reflect your past or your future?

Will your life reflect your past or your future?

Do you invest in things that you think won’t change yet always do?

Like what?

Things like your health, finances, world economic conditions, a steady job, and on and on.

You either run your habits or they run you

Smoking is so addictive. Addiction is a habit that is hard to change. Is being disorganized an addiction? i have no idea. i do think, however, that we can be addicted to things that make being organized impossible.

Being able to do something well with relative ease is great when you do it.

If you know how to do something but struggle, for whatever reason, to do it consistently without being reminded, then you have an opportunity to develop more effective and efficient personal structure and processes for getting those things done.

Habits and rituals.

Personal responsibility.

Initiative.

Whether it’s the daily doing of your work, doing home chores, staying well physically and spiritually, or simply managing your home environment, the results you reap stem from the structure and processes you implement.

Back to, you guessed it, habits and rituals.

Reacting when reminded, or, initiating action without having to be reminded.

Both approaches are the result of habits and rituals.
