"Do You Focus on Past Mistakes, or on Past Successes?"

(To watch the video of this blog post go here.)


Don't listen to the mental chatter that is often so negative. It's so easy to look at current problems through the lens of past failures or mistakes. Living positively in the moment is harder but way more fulfilling and rewarding.


Do these three things to improve your mood:


1. Look at only past successes for inspiration

2. Repeat what you did that was successful then

3. Play the "Pick My Favorite Success" Game for ideas


Focus on your purpose to give you clarity and direction. It will help you stay on course.


Lastly, three things to apply to your process:


1. Look at what makes you happy

2. Look at what make you tick

3. Look at what makes you feel satisfied with fulfillment, freedom, and fun.


Remember to take a TRIP for a Lifetime, not a TRIP of a lifetime!

Teams using TRIP!
By Keith Renninson 07 Apr, 2023
This is the second in a series of four on team building with TRIP. Remember, in my last blog I shared that it would be performed in reverse with “purpose” first and now we will implement the “imagination” section. Imagination is probably the most fun of the character traits of TRIP. I love it because I can immerse myself in creativity and play!
Team building

How can TRIP help with team building you ask? By using it backwards! Huh? Yup, we will start with “Purpose” instead of Tenacity. The series will move from purpose to imagination, to resilience, and lastly to tenacity. When you look at TRIP from this reverse perspective it becomes clear that it flows naturally in team building and task completion. As with any project you must know your purpose first, so that’s where we will start.
