Step into Q4 Boldly with GLAD

Today is not only the first of the month, but the first day of Q4. For some this is their busy season, whereas for others work slows down and time with family increases. No matter what Q4 looks like for you, you can step into it boldly with the GLAD Philosophy.

GLAD is Gratitude, Logistics, Audacity, and Delusion. 

Take time to audit what has been going well and what lessons you have learned. Celebrate yourself and bask in the gratitude for the people and opportunities you have been blessed with. Gratitude is more than just saying thank you. It is the reflection and celebration of both the past and present. Logistics and Audacity are the bridge that connects your Gratitude with Delusion, so we’ll come back to those. 

After you look at and appreciate the past & present, you can then look to the future. Delusion is the idea of something that does not currently exist. Maybe your delusion is that you will have a 6 figure job by the end of 2025 or that your medical scans will come back clean. Even if that isn’t your reality as of today, that doesn’t mean it’s not possible in the future. Delusion is choosing faith over fear and dreams over nightmares.

Once you have appreciated where you are and decided where you want to go, your next steps are to come up with a plan (Logistics) and take action (Audacity). Your logistics may include applying to 10 jobs per week or going to the gym each morning to start your day. Your audacity may be to choose jobs you are not 100% qualified for or implementing a 24-hour fast each week. 

No matter who you are or what’s going on in your Q4, don’t forget to reflect on who you are now (Gratitude), consider where you want to go (Delusion), and to be ruthless in planning & taking the necessary actions to get there (Logistics & Audacity).
