Super Sunday takes on a new format:
Hello friend! 👋
First, thank you for being part of this incredible community and committing to your personal growth.
When each of us shows up as our best selves, we create a better world together.
If you’re new here, this is a little intro:
I’ve dedicated the first decade of my professional career to being an engineer and a leader. Then, I dedicated the second decade — which I’m in the middle of now — to feeding my curiosity (and becoming a better leader).
This journey has led me to:
A 12-month well-being coach certification
A master’s in Applied Positive Psychology
A 2-year mindfulness teacher certification at Brown and UCSD
The opportunity to pursue another master’s degree at Oxford
I’m filled with gratitude as I reflect on the journey and the possibilities ahead.
So what’s the new format?
During my role as a Sales Director, I learned that the best sales strategy is the simplest sales strategy. It’s intuitive, easy to execute, and easy to understand.
The same principles applies to life.
The best strategy for a fuller (read super) life is personal, efficient, and consistent. But making things simple is hard — it is, after all, the ultimate sophistication.
This drove me to define it through 3 pillars:
1. Awareness: knowing what’s important and what matters to us (values).
2. Choices: the intentional actions we take aligned with these values.
3. Systems: consistently making those choices so they become life habits.
If we understand what matters to us, identify actions aligned with those values, and consistently take those actions, we can master the game of life.
Consider confidence, curiosity, commitment, courage, compassion, and celebration. These are the core ingredients for resilience, optimism, habit formation, and many other life skills.
Moving forward, I will share these concepts within the 1, 2, 3 framework.
So you can learn about them, choose actionable steps today, and maintain consistency in your actions.
PS. If there are any concepts you’re curious about, feel free to reply to this email and I will gladly unpack these for all of us in the community.
Have a Super Sunday! ⚡️
With much joy,
Hashim
