Train Your Brain to Think in Systems
✨ At a GlanceWhat if success wasn’t about motivation, willpower, or inspiration, but about systems? This week’s insight explores how creating intentional systems can transform the way you work, think, and live. 🧠 The Elite IdeaEverything you do can be systemized! It might sound crazy. I didn’t believe it myself until I read The Power of Systems by Steve Chandler and Trevor Timbeck (by the way, highly recommend it!). Steve Chandler writes: “Rather than dreaming of having something happen, why not create a system that is structured to make the result happen? Then all you have to do is follow the system, whether you feel like following it or not on the various ‘emotional’ days. Just follow it, and let the system guide the momentum.” The key to building powerful systems is first realizing what current system you’re using, the one that’s keeping you from your goal. Because everything you do is already based on some kind of system, you just might not be aware of it yet. And awareness is the first step toward success. Then it’s repetitive action. As the authors say: “Practice. Practice is one of the most powerful systems in the world. It is how we learn almost every other system.” 🔍 Inside My MindAs a big fan of systems, especially those that make life smoother and decisions easier, I couldn’t resist reading this book when it was recommended to me. It felt perfectly aligned with the way I think. Each concept resonated deeply, and I knew I wanted to share it with you. If you enjoy this newsletter, there is a good chance this book will speak to you as well. While reading it, I began to question how I approach different areas of my life, what hidden systems I might be unconsciously following, and how I could replace them with more effective ones. There are many powerful quotes in that book that challenged my thinking (a lot!). This is one of them - by W. Edwards Deming: “If you can’t describe what you are doing as a process, you don’t know what you’re doing.” This sentence captures the essence of intentional living. Systems and coaching share this same foundation. Both invite curiosity, reflection, and the willingness to examine how you do things today so you can consciously design better ways forward. 🧬 Integrate ItHere’s a simple two-step approach from Steve and Trevor to start creating powerful systems in your own life: Step 1: Understand the system you currently use, whether you’ve been conscious of it or not. Make it conscious. And here’s a question from Trevor Timbeck to leave you with: “The system didn’t work, or you didn’t work the system?” I help business leaders and entrepreneurs design success that feels as good as it looks.
