Ep 92: The B.A.D.G.E.S. of Your Life.

Summary: We need leaders. Leaders at every level and in every organization. The absolute truth is that no one else is coming, and it’s up to us to step forward and fulfill our obligations. But before you lead others, you need to be able to lead yourself. In this episode, I introduce the concept of BADGES, a way of managing your self-development that I created and have been using for some time. I spent much of 2018 testing different methodologies, reading, journaling, brainstorming and speaking with experts and I think this system can help you achieve your goals, become a better public servant, and lead to more happiness in your life. The BADGES acronym stands for BELIEFS * ACTIONS * DISCIPLINE * GOALS * EMOTIONS * SERVICE. BADGES is NOT a cure or an off-the-shelf program with answers and solutions. Frankly, it’s a lot of work. BADGES is a series of questions, thoughts, ideas and challenges that help you clarify what you want and what is a priority for you. I can’t answer those questions – no one can but you! But having clarity on where you are, and where you want to go will create powerful changes in your life if you’re willing to do the work. All of the work we try to do to improve can fall into one of these 6 points. They’re certainly broad categories but they have to be. It’s intentional, because if I made them specific, say, “Physical Fitness” for example, I’d miss out on the fact that my fitness contributes to my emotional state, my beliefs about myself, the goals I have and it demonstrates my discipline. I hope this system makes you excited to approach 2019 with excitement and enthusiasm for what’s to come for you and your loved ones. In 2019, we’ll be exploring each aspect of BADGES in-depth; through podcast episodes, discussions in the Facebook group, emails, and even some live webinars. I’m excited to share this idea with all of you. To get signed up for the mailing list, visit <a href="http://www.thesquadroom.net">thesquadroom.net</a> or text THESQUADROOM to 44222 on your phone.
