Already planning on eating lunch?

How about you get up from your desk or out of your office and eat lunch with us?! There’s no need to eat alone.

This month’s Best Life Movement workshop looks a little different than normal. Because we value community, friendships, and relationships, we want to take a break from learning together and instead dine together!

Grab some grub and head over to the Frontier to eat lunch with like-minded people who are excited about thriving and living their best lives.

You'll have an opportunity to eat with our peak performance coaches, pick their brains and ask them any questions you may have about thriving in life, in business, or anything else related to living your best life.

Pack your lunch, get a meal from the food truck at the Frontier or snag some food on your way. Enjoy a yummy, health(ier) dessert on us!

With the Best Life Summit (www.thebestlifesummit.com) almost two months away, we thought what better way to hang out as a movement ahead of time than to eat lunch together? We’ll enjoy a joyful hour of getting to know each other, laughing, and conversing.

By the way, if you’ve never heard of the Best Life Movement, we are a group of people who desire to live our best lives and help other to do the same. We get together to learn and encourage each other to pursue what really matters, and achieve balance and continued growth both professionally and personally.

We can’t wait to see you there!

WHAT ARE THESE MONTHLY WORKSHOPS?

The second Wednesday of each month, The Best Life Movementinvites you to join a complimentary live workshop and discussion about topics for best and purposeful living. Examining a different peak-performance topic each month, event attendees get to know other like-minded individuals and learn practical skills and strategies for living their best lives. Together we learn how to succeed above standard norms in all of life, for the rest of life. Monthly workshops happen from 12 p.m. to 1:00 p.m. at the Frontier in RTP.

In 18 months, it will be 2020.

A new decade will launch - a new beginning for us all. Will you be ready?

2020 is synonymous with clear vision – do you have a clear vision for what these months will look like before this next milestone in time comes your way?

It has been proven over and over again that when we set big goals (in business and in life) in 18-month-increments, we double our capacity for achieving them!

As great as that is, we have all experienced working towards a goal only to find that it sucks all of our time and energy from other important aspects of our lives. Perhaps our work takes us away from our families, or our families take us away from our work. Or maybe our exercise takes us away from our business endeavors, or our business endeavors take away from our exercise. Or one project at work dominates our week, and there’s no time to focus on serving clients.

Is your life in balance?

Do you even know how to answer that question? Do you work too much? Play too much? Work too little? Play too little? How do we even get in balance? It’s not like we were taught this in school.

We have all suffered from over-commitment to something or under-commitment to something else. We’ve felt stuck or like we are plateauing rather than growing fiercely towards the person we want to be or doing the things we want to do.

At one point or another, we have lacked vision for the important things. And it’s likely we will again. Unless …

Unless we tend to all priority areas of our life and work. This allows us to thrive and reach our goals – when efforts in one area cause complete neglect in another, something’s off. To live our best lives, we need balance and growth in all important aspects of life and work.

The next 18 months is the beginning of working towards lifelong balance and growth.

Join us for the July Best Life Movement Workshop. We’ll dive into how to tend to our balance and growth in our life priorities until we breathe our last breath.

WHO IS FACILITATING THIS MONTH'S WORKSHOP? 

The Best Life Movement is pleased to welcome speaker and peak-performance coach Brett Blair, author of the book, "From Autopilot to Authentic."

Brett used to live on autopilot, running each day on a treadmill, going faster and faster, but going nowhere at all. After experiencing a "mid-life blessing," he is now living his best, most purposeful life. He has a passion for helping others live on purpose, both inside and outside of their businesses or work. He is the president of Best Life Global, the peak performance coaching, and training company behind the Best Life Movement workshops. He truly believes the best is yet to come (hello, 2020!).

Reflect on your day so far – what tasks did you complete?

You likely brushed your teeth, fueled your body with food, checked email and conversed with a loved one. You might have met with a colleague or a potential client, or brainstormed the process for your next project. Maybe you dropped the kids at school and gulped down coffee on the way.

A productive day so far?

Well, it depends. It depends on your definition of productivity. Did you accomplish high-priority, needle-moving tasks, or did you simply check off busywork items?

Productivity is not doing more --  but productivity is doing more of the right things - 

- the things that help lift you to where you want to be. In the context of work, that could be landing the next big account, discovering your true passion, finally launching that long-term project or impacting an individual. On a personal level, it could be serving your significant other, greatly helping a neighbor or becoming the healthiest you can be. 

At the end of the day, checking your email and brushing your teeth are of course important (nobody wants rotted teeth). But, do those things allow you to accomplish what is most important to you, or what is top priority in your life?

Join us for the June Best Life Movement workshop to learn how to structure your day in a way that allows you to accomplish those needle-moving tasks – not just the things you have to do to survive.

Because “how we live our days is how we live our lives” – if we don’t work on our priorities consistently, the busywork will keep us from ever accomplishing them. 

WHO IS FACILITATING THE WORKSHOP THIS MONTH? 

This month, the Best Life Movement will hear from the Best Life Global Team. Marketing Director Kaylee Law will facilitate our discussion around productivity and accomplishing what matters, while peak performance coaches Brett Blair and Steve Arnold will guide our discussion with the science, proven-results, and strategies behind living a productive life that concerns what matters most. 

Get to know the team -- here's why they do what they do:

• Brett: I want to help as many people as possible, with the time I have left on earth, to live their best lives. 
• Steve: I want to help others grow personally, and also grow personally myself. 
• Kaylee: I want to encourage others to steward all areas of life well, so we all have the capacity to love others vastly and give generously.

Old habits can be hard to break. New habits can be hard to form. 

Habits are hard-wired in the neural pathways of the brain, but this doesn't mean our bad habits must continue to exist. With focus, willingness, perseverance, intention, and repetition, new habits can be formed.

Peak performers, or people living their best lives, are fully aware of the immense power of their habits.

Good habits are the solid foundation for living an exceptional life. By changing your habits, you can change the trajectory of your life. 

Join us for the May Best Life Movement Workshop to learn how to toss your bad habits and stick to the good ones.  

You'll leave with an understanding of the incredible power of habits and practical tips for managing them in your own life. Like Samuel Johnson says, “The chains of habit are too weak to be felt until they are too strong to be broken.”

Who is facilitating the workshop this month?

The Best Life Movement is pleased to welcome speaker Coach Brett Blair, author of upcoming book, "From Autopilot to Authentic." 

Brett used to live on autopilot, running each day on a treadmill, going faster and faster, but going nowhere at all. After experiencing a "mid-life blessing," he is now living his best, most purposeful life. Brett's favorite part of life is building relationships, and he is excited to pass on his knowledge on how to thrive with others. Brett is a peak-performance life coach, speaker, author, workshop trainer, husband, father, and enthusiast. He helps people live their best lives, for the rest of their lives.

WE ALL KNOW THAT ONE PERSON. 

That one person who walks around seemingly happy all the time - full of energy, enthusiasm and loved by everyone.
It’s not that he or she necessarily has a lot of money, a perfect family, or a great job, but there’s just something about that person you can’t quite put your finger on.

DO YOU EVER WONDER WHAT MAKES THAT PERSON SO HAPPY? 

Do you sometimes wish you could feel that way, too? Most people assume their feelings are based on life circumstances - we catch ourselves thinking “I don’t have enough money," or “my spouse is treating me unfairly," or "my boss is a jerk." These are the things we think make us dissatisfied. 

YOU MAY HAVE TRIED TO IMPROVE YOUR FEELINGS BY CHANGING YOUR LIFE CIRCUMSTANCES. 

Maybe you’ve attempted to make more money, get a divorce, or find a new job. While those adjustments may have made you feel better temporarily, you continue to fall back into that same state of unhappiness. So, you figure you didn’t make the right adjustments, and you continue to go back through the same failing loop. Your unhappiness continues. 

SO, WHAT ACTUALLY YIELDS HAPPINESS IN LIFE? 

Fortunately, genetics and life circumstances only play a small role in a person’s happiness, so just because you may not be all that particularly happy right now, doesn’t mean you can’t be. You’ve probably already realized that changing your life circumstances isn’t the answer either.

WHAT YOU NEED ARE NEW HABITS.

Habits that will help you maintain a relatively consistent state of joy in spite of the challenges that life throws at you. You need to learn to thrive despite the chaos.

JOIN US AT THE APRIL 2018 BEST LIFE MOVEMENT WORKSHOP.

There, you'll learn the habits that yield happiness, and how to implement them into the areas of your awesome life. 

WHO IS FACILITATING THE WORKSHOP THIS MONTH?

The Best Life Movement is pleased to welcome speaker, blogger, and high-performance trainer, Steve Arnold. 
Steve used to be a software engineer until he realized that his career wasn't in alignment with who he truly wanted to be. So, he left his corporate programming job and started his entrepreneurial journey. After some additional soul searching, he realized that his overcommitment to his professional life and lack of awareness in the present moment was robbing him of so much potential joy. After that, he committed himself to balance and living into the person he truly wanted to be, a "world-class" father, a "world-class" husband, and a "world-class" community leader. To stay true to his desire to be a "world-class" community leader, Steve has recently begun his journey into high-performance training. Now, he is committed to helping others feel the joy he's so grateful to experience each and every day.

WHO HAS THE ENERGY TO TRY AND GET AHEAD WHEN IT'S HARD ENOUGH JUST GETTING BY? 

Have you ever felt like you can’t get ahead, no matter how hard you try? Like the world keeps pounding on you, and you just don’t feel like you’ve got the stamina to keep up?

You want to set ambitious goals for yourself, and you know that doing so will make you happier, but it’s hard to focus on the future when you feel like you’re just barely getting by as it is.

There are some serious demands placed on you. The kids need you, the spouse needs you, the boss needs you, the community needs you, the church needs you, and on, and on, and on - it keeps going.

Well, the truth is, these demands aren’t going away anytime soon. And if they do, they’ll just be replaced with other demands.

So, what can you do? 

You need to learn to THRIVE despite the chaos. Because “just getting by” isn’t going to cut it anymore.

You need to learn strategies and acquire new habits that will lead to a more vibrant, energetic, and fulfilling life.

Because doesn’t your family/work/community/church, etc… deserve more from you? And most importantly, don’t YOU deserve more from yourself? It’s time to step it up, and live the life of THRIVE once and for all! It's time to manage your Energy. 

What strategies will you learn at the Best Life Movement March Workshop?

You will leave the workshop with strategies for managing your Energy. That's "Energy" with a capital "E," encompassing three aspects: 

• Mental Energy

• Emotional Energy

• Physical Energy 

You'll receive actionable items you can implement immediately. These will lead to higher levels of positive energy throughout your day!

THIS VALENTINE'S DAY, WE ARE REMINDED THAT THRIVING RELATIONSHIPS, AND NOT ONLY ROMANTIC ONES, BRING JOY TO LIFE. 

We’re family members, co-workers, significant others, parents, friends, roommates, acquaintances, and leaders. But how do we thrive in these relationships?

Life is meant to be lived in community with other people. But how can we be intentional with those we spend our time? How can we love others well, and bring joy to our interactions? 

Let's rock as family members.

Technology makes living in community more difficult. It is our challenge to live relationship-based lives in spite of the distance and separation enhanced by smartphones, social media, texts, emails, etc.

Let's rock as co-workers.

In the workplace, the number one reason that people leave their jobs is because of their boss's behavior. 

Let's rock as significant others 

In a marriage, the best kind of relationship is made up of two independent, emotionally healthy people, who each have their own plans and commitments to personal growth into the future, and where they overlap in the relationship, are crazy in love, supportive and truly enjoy their time and journey together through life.

Let's rock as parents. 

A generous spirit creates emotional well-being. Being concerned with the health and well-being of other people helps us take our minds off of ourselves, and move away from ego-driven thoughts.

Let's rock as friends. 

A survey by the National Bureau of Economic Research of 5,000 people found that doubling your group of friends has the same effect on your wellbeing as a 50% increase in income!

Let's rock as acquaintances.

"One person, attracted to you because of who you have become, can change your life forever," as Tom Hill, author and coach, says. 

Let's rock as leaders.

The late Jim Rohn says we become the average of the five adults we spend the most time with. Successful people like to help other people. Just ask them.

Join us for the BEST LIFE Movement February workshop and learn how to rock your relationships. After all, those with strong relationships are healthier and live longer than those without.

CALLING ALL LIARS.

“I suck. I can’t do it. I’m scared to get started. I know I’m not good enough. People will judge me. I’m not experienced or expert enough to do this. That person is more qualified than me. More likable.” 

Think about a life goal of yours, whether the one you want to accomplish in 2018 or a giant dream you want to live out before your death bed is a reality. One that you have yet to start, but you think about consistently.

Why is it that you haven’t started it?

It could be because you have been fed lies about your abilities, or you’re creating and believing lies about yourself. Lies like the ones in bold above. 

It’s time to stop lying.

You are an amazing person. Someone with the ability to impact others immensely with your life experiences and talents. You are capable of greatness.

It is true that people will judge you for that aspiration, or your experience is not that of the leading expert in the field. Despite this, it’s a lie those are reasons you can’t achieve all you’ve set out to do.

THE TAKEAWAYS

What are the lies you personally experience, that are unique to you?

How can you identify the negative self-talk, discouraging attitudes and disbelief in your abilities?  

Where does this noise come from?

What do you do about these things?

Join the BEST LIFE Movement at our January workshop, where we will dive into these questions and combat the noise that says, “I can’t” live out my dreams.  

WHO IS FACILITATING THE WORKSHOP THIS MONTH?

The Best Life Movement is pleased to welcome Kaylee Law, 

high-performance coaching marketer, and people-lover. Kaylee has worn many professional hats in her career, from development writer, reporter, and website creator to wedding coordinator, non-profit manager, volunteer trainer, and community-development specialist. Along the way, Kaylee has found joy in relationships with people and has been blessed by the diversity of life stories she has encountered.

However, Kaylee has fallen victim to the many lies in her head that tell her she is incapable of greatness. Lies like, "who are you to make a difference?" or "that guy's got it all figured out and you're clueless," or "you don't have enough credibility for people to listen" or "you're too young to know what you're talking about." Still learning how to fight off lies daily, Kaylee is excited to share some practical resources for getting rid of the negative thoughts that keep us from changing the world fearlessly. Those ones that keep us from getting started.

Generating Clarity: How to Align Your Life Around What Matters

My life is good, and I'm good at what I do. Why do I need clarity? 

You are a great achiever. You’re beloved by others, and people often ask you how you do it. But inside, you feel like you're not making the difference you had hoped you would, and that life is often too much to handle. Perhaps you're not even sure what you want anymore.

You could be lacking clarity. 

Envision yourself, your life, 10 years from now. 15 years from now. What matters most to you? What brings you meaning? Can you picture yourself living out or into these things?

Now, look at the different events, commitments, activities, and choices in your life right now. The things that fill the 168 hours you are given each week.

Do the elements that make up your present life put you on a path to creating meaning in your future, to living into the things that matter most?

Generating clarity means knowing who you are, knowing what you’re after, and knowing how you’re going to achieve that goal or dream. Now and in the future. When you have clarity, you no longer feel like you're drowning. 

Join us for The Best Life Movement's December workshop on how to align your life with what matters. You will leave this workshop with tools for generating clarity in your life. 

Let’s involve our selves in the things today that will make it impossible to simply go through the motions, and almost inevitable to not accomplish the things that matter most. 

Who is facilitating our discussion this month?

The Best Life Movement is pleased to welcome speaker, blogger, and high-performance trainer, Steve Arnold. Steve used to be a software engineer until he realized that his career wasn't in alignment with who he truly wanted to be.

BUT ISN'T BUSY A GOOD THING?

You're at a party. A friend approaches you whom you haven't seen in a while.

Friend: How are you?
You: I'm so busy! 

Our society praises the busy -- it feeds us the idea that the busier we are, the more important we are. It's why we sometimes describe our busyness with pride. However, have you ever caught yourself saying "I'm so busy," with an exhausted sigh, and wished that you were not living so frantically, spinning your wheels?

WHAT WILL I GET OUT OF THIS MONTH'S FREE BEST LIFE MOVEMENT WORKSHOP?

With Coach Brett Blair as our facilitator, we will talk about busy as people-pleasing and distracted, rather than productive and important. Attendees will leave with an understanding of how to drop their busy lives and create purposeful ones. They will learn proven habits that allow for conscious focus on the important and non-urgent things in our lives.
