In a previous post, I talked about that for me, personal leadership/success and business leadership are pretty much the same.
In this post, I had taken you on my personal growth journey, which included establishing a habit of moving/exercising on a regular basis in order to be able to deliver consistent High Performance, in Business and on a personal level. As a successful Digital Executive, I’m very much motivated by numbers and therefore had defined a target of running 500km in Q1/2019.
I felt really proud when I had achieved this, as it was more than I ever had done before in my life.
The real challenge then however was, achieving consistency. A lifestyle, allowing growth and consistent High Performance. Staying on the same level means in my case: 1.000km on a treadmill by end of Q2/2019. And it really is a challenge, because as everybody else, I have days where I don’t feel at all like exercising early in the morning… 
Therefore the big question for me personally was: how can I create enough energy ?
I started by doing what I do as a Business Leader as well : I created a vision (High Performance in Biz and personally), a strategy (moving min 30min/day), a plan (Creating enough energy every day) and defined milestones. And benefits of course for achieving certain goals
One critical milestone was to achieve at least 200km in May, as this number is the pre-requisite in order to achieve the bigger goal by end of June. So I felt proud when I came in at 208km end of May.
In Business, we all know that it is not always possible to control customers/partners behavior and decision processes. The beauty in changing my personal behavior is: I have it 100% under control! The question is just: how much am I willing to invest?
I live in a society where 91% of the population is not willing to exceed their pulse of rest for 30 minutes per day, according to a recent study*. In my opinion, there is a correlation between this behavior and struggling as a country, with almost all future topics like the digital revolution.
In this case it is something positive being part of a minority, meaning: being part of the 9%! 
Leadership is getting things done!
