I’m a big believer that you should own your own personal growth journey, but it can be tough to figure out what to do next. Sometimes you need a simple framework or prompt to get you to get a new perspective that can nudge you to the next level.

Today, let’s try an exercise: the rockstar shift.

🎸 The Rockstar Shift

Imagine that tomorrow, your job is being taken over by an absolute rockstar – somebody who is so incredibly skilled at this role that you can’t help but admire them.

Then think through some questions:

• What would they do differently to you?

• What behaviours do they exhibit?

• What about them makes them so good at this job?

This exercise is great because it gives you a new look at your role, but also can give you two really useful insights:

1. What can I do differently today that would make me more effective? and

2. How do I close the gap between where I am now and where they are?

That’s it for this week! Today’s post was inspired by this post from Kat Cole, published in 2020.
