Trace The Standard You Never Chose
From the outside, you are fine. You are the capable one, the one people call, the one who holds it together. Inside, you are tired in a way sleep doesn't fix.
Here is what I think is happening. You are living by standards you never chose.
Almost nobody picks their own. We inherit them before we are old enough to say no, absorb them in rooms we want to belong to, and agree to them in a season that ended years ago. Some still serve you. Some are exactly why you are exhausted. It is why resolutions fail: new goals sit on old standards, and the old standards win every time.
So this is not goal setting, and it is not motivation. We take one standard, the everyday one that quietly tires you, find where it came from and who set it, and write a new one in your own words. I will trace one live with someone who has agreed to go first, then you will do your own in a small breakout room.
Come with something that tires you. Leave knowing who set it and what you are replacing it with.
What you leave with
One standard traced to where it actually started
One standard rewritten, in a single sentence, in your own words
The Standard Trace, a one-page tool for the next one
A test for which standards to keep and which to retire
Who this is for
People see strength, and you feel weight. You keep achieving and still feel far from yourself. This is not for you if you want motivation. I will not hype you. It is for people ready to look honestly at the lines they live by.
Practical. Free, 75 minutes, live and online. Bring something to write with. We work in small breakout rooms, so please only register if you plan to come.
