Checklist

Checklists are valuable for two reasons:

(1) Improving or automating is easier once the steps are on paper.

(2) Perfect process is guaranteed, minimizing the scope for errors.

Where can you use a checklist to improve or automate steps in your life or work?

| Insight

The power of a single decision can change the course of your life.

Challenge: Reflect on a decision you made that significantly impacted your life. Write about the factors that led to the decision and the positive or negative outcomes that followed.

Example: Choosing a college, deciding to change careers, or ending a long-term relationship.

| Quote

Rumi, a 13th-century Persian poet and Sufi mystic, on the journey of life:

"Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise, so I am changing myself."

| Question

Reflect on a moment this week when you felt a strong emotional reaction. What did this reaction tell you about your underlying values, fears, or desires?
