You have goals and well known responsibilities and expectations. But have you accepted or selected your secret assignments? From Seattle, let’s get into stealth mode.
WATCH THE VIDEO.
READ THE TRANSCRIPT.
You are enrolled in elite training – not just because you watch these videos, but in all the ways you pursue a higher pathway, better knowledge and skills, personal, professional, and spiritual growth.
What this means is you have more awareness and capability than people who just deal with life reflexively. We all make mistakes. But as you’re aligned to growth, you catch them quicker and learn to make different mistakes in the future. You take responsibility and hold yourself to higher standards.
Because of this alignment and ability, you can self-assign stealth missions and projects no one knows about but you. These are fun and rewarding, as they impact people and events in meaningful ways.
Secret missions can be planned or spontaneous and generally play out quickly. You may choose to help a stranger, bring joy where it’s needed, or deliver unexpected words, gifts, or service. Get in, make an impact, then leave the scene better than it was.
Then there are secret projects, which take longer and involve people you impact over time. To build trust and lasting impact it takes time and repetition: Accumulated words of encouragement, understanding, and love; real time adjustments, and consistent acts of intention.
You don’t need the credit. You’re too busy to explain what you’re doing, plus you’re already moving on to the next assignment. And note, when you take this approach, you may become the secret project of someone who’s further along this path than you.
So own your agency to improve your life while you achieve your goals. And own your role as a stealth agent for influence that long outlasts your efforts. Until next week, stay Off Balance On Purpose.
