She Snippets: What Would My Best Self Do?

We make countless decisions every day — some that carry real weight, and some as ordinary as what to have for dinner (a question Rachel freely admits she finds endlessly annoying). In this She Snippet, Rachel Russell of Quiet Frankly Coaching shares one of her favourite decision-making tools: a single question that cuts through the noise and reconnects us with the version of ourselves we most want to be. It works for the big moments and the small ones, and it’s disarmingly simple.In This SnippetRachel explores:•       A powerful decision-making question: what would my best self do? — and how it works across the everyday and the extraordinary•       How asking this question changes the lens through which we see our choices — from work and finances to what we put on our plates•       Why our unconscious mind responds to the question as though we’re already that person — and how that sets us up to step into the answerQuotable Moment“When we ask ourselves what would my best self do, we are automatically setting ourselves up for success — and our unconscious mind is going to set up opportunities for us to step into being our best self.” — Rachel RussellSomething to TryChoose one decision today — it doesn’t have to be a big one — and before you act, ask yourself: what would my best self do? Not your perfect self, not the version that has it all figured out, but the you that you most want to be. Notice how the question shifts something. Then, as Rachel says, act accordingly and charge on.About RachelRachel Russell is the founder of Quiet Frankly Coaching, based in Bunbury, Western Australia.Connect With Us•       Follow She Speaks on Instagram: @shespeakswellbeingstrategies•       Visit our website: www.shespeakswellbeing.com A Note on WellbeingShe Speaks is dedicated to amplifying women’s voices on self-care and wellbeing.
