Before sharing the 10 Pivot Points, first let’s set up a baseline platform for The Reinvention Reset. To improve your ability to make significant changes, you must be willing to do three things in sequential order:
- Hone Your Vision – About the Decision
- Shift Your Energy – To Meet the Decision, and THEN and only then
- Make Your Move – Toward the Decision
Using the 10 Pivot Points, you’ll be on your way to Reinvention and Pivoting Your Way to Success!
Here’s how it works: When you are faced with a turning point, and want to make a change, go through these 10 Pivot Points to focus your mind, and lead you to what you really, really want. Use them all or use the ones that resonate the most for you. IMPORTANT NOTE: WRITE DOWN YOUR ANSWERS/THOUGHTS/GOALS. Dr. Gail Matthews, a Psychology professor at Dominican University of California charted in a study that you are 42 percent more likely to achieve your goals if you write them down. (Forleo) So, take out pen and paper and let’s get started! This is a brief overview of The Reinvention Reset. A more detailed version will be offered in an upcoming online course, but this can get you started.
10 Pivot Points of The Reinvention Reset
Pivot #1: Finding Your Purpose – What gift is uniquely yours, like a fingerprint, that you can share to help others?
Pivot #2: Believing in Possibilities – What’s possible now? A year from now? 5 years from now? Who can help you?
Pivot #3: Defining Your Priorities – If you knew you had 5 years left to live what would you be doing? 3 years? 1 year? Why aren’t you doing that now?
Pivot #4: Envisioning Prosperity – Prosperity isn’t always about money, and all money isn’t green. What is your enough?
Pivot #5: Getting Prepared – Like the company DreamWorks®, you must work to live your dreams. Are you willing to do the work?
Pivot #6: Having Patience – Putting one foot in front of the other is the only way to create a path. Expecting instant gratification can lead to missteps. Are you willing to be patient and consistent in your efforts?
Pivot #7: Seeking Positivity – Positive thoughts and people are necessities, not luxuries. What people do you need to move from the front row seat of your life to move ahead? (Figuratively or Realistically)
Pivot #8: Honoring your Passion – It’s the lubricant that keeps your dreams alive. What are you passionate about doing or fixing?
Pivot #9: Maintaining Perseverance – Developing “Bounce-backability” is imperative. Can you bounce back from failure? When have you done it before?
Pivot #10: Managing Perceptions – There’s no such thing as a second first impression, yet don’t advertise what you don’t have. Are you clear about what you can deliver for yourself and for others? Overpromising and underdelivering are dream busters.
Now go back and review your THOUGHTS/ANSWERS/GOALS considering the platforms of The Reinvention Reset. Do you have more clarity about how to:
- Hone Your Vision – About the Decision
- Shift Your Energy – To Meet the Decision, and THEN and only then
- Make Your Move – Toward the Decision
In the Pivot for Success book, you’ll see which Pivot Points are recommended under which platforms to align with where you are in the decision process. However, remember that the Reinvention Reset Blueprint Pivot Points can be flexible. It’s most important that you take the time to step back, assess and write down YOUR Blueprint for YOUR Reinvention Reset. Again, do not be overwhelmed.
Relax. Remember, you’ve changed your life before. You’ve gone for something you’ve wanted before. You can do it again. Do The Reinvention Reset and press on!
