  • Self Reflections

    Reflections exercises are one or more questions that we’d like you to be in deep consideration of for the entire week.  These are meant to be shared with your family, friends, and community so that they can offer you a more complete 360 view of yourself, your identity, and your reality.

    Everyone has blind spots.  These are areas where we are less developed that are outside our view.  Getting reflections will point out things that you might not ever know yourself.

    In addition, the more you consider these reflection questions the more likely you’ll be able to break through your current level of thinking and use the exercises to leap frog into a new level of consciousness.

    These questions will be posted on the Recode Facebook Forum where they are meant to be responded to by you from week to week.  Here are this weeks reflection exercises:

    1. Which of the 5 emotional powers have i decided to invest in? (Convener / Status / Social Proof / Being Understood / Memes) – What is my next step in learning how to better wield this power
    2. Which area of the clear story am i typically weakest at? (You Think / But Really / If You Just / Then You’ll Get) What has been the cost to my project or my cause of this weakness?
    3. What (if anything) am I afraid might be exposed or discovered if my message suddenly takes off and develops a wide audience? What (if any) fears do I have associated with being recognized as a leader in my field?
