A Purple Patch! Would you like to experience a great run of success? A period where life is amazing & going so well, that everything you do, turns to gold. They are sensational times!
Matt, in my team, experienced a purple patch a while ago. He was achieving great things & enjoying the ride.
The problem though, Purple Patches don’t last forever;
- We may not realise we are slowly deviating from successful strategies overtime,
- New challenges arise &
- Sometimes life simply doesn’t go our way.
We may not have enjoyed a Purple Patch for some time, yet feel we are working harder & are busier than ever, trying to keep up & juggle everything.
I suggested to Matt at the time that he write down everything that he was feeling & doing. Effectively recording the proven formula (a how-to), so he could reproduce the Purple Patch again, especially during those tough times.
I spoke to Matt recently & he mentioned he often reflects on our chat. Soon after he experienced his Purple Patch, he took on a challenging new career. Matt mentioned after sticking to his 'how-to' & hard work, he is again having a Purple Patch - achieving great things again!
I hope you have a Purple Patch soon too.
