68: Creating Your Day with Coach Polly

Coach Polly solo here! Wondering if you ever feel like your days are 'happening TO you' rather than being created BY you? That's what living in "default mode" feels like—a reactive state where we're at the mercy of our monkey minds, external demands, and fluctuating energy levels. STOP THIS!In this deeply personal episode, Coach Polly shares a transformative practice I've recently adopted called "Creating Your Day." This simple 15-minute morning ritual has completely shifted how I show up in the world, helping me move from reactive to creative living. Drawing from wisdom gained through Landmark Education, I walk through the exact process that allows you to intentionally design each day rather than surrendering to default patterns.The beauty of this practice lies in its simplicity. By clearing your mental space and choosing three power words that align with your energy and intentions, you set a powerful rudder for your day's journey. Whether you're facing a low-energy day (try "grounded, present, open"), need to conquer your to-do list ("powerful, resourceful, completion"), or are navigating challenges ("bold, dynamic, at ease"), these carefully selected words become touchstones that keep you centered and intentional.Our days are precious—each one a non-renewable resource in the limited time we have. Those who've experienced loss understand this truth profoundly. This practice honors that preciousness by ensuring we don't waste our days on autopilot. Try it for two weeks with accountability partners who are equally committed to intentional living, and you might find yourself thinking, "I'm never not doing this again."Have you tried intentionally creating your days? I'd love to hear your experience with this practice and how it transforms your daily life. Remember: how your life feels is more important than how it looks, and every day is your opportunity to find your awesome.Send us Fan Mail Follow Coach Polly @getbusythriving and Coach Sam @thesamanthapruitt Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/everydayawesomeprojectFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/everydayawesomeprojectLinktree for ALL THE THINGS: https://linktr.ee/everydayawesomeprojectWebsite/About Us: https://everydayawesomeproject.com/about-us/
