The Secret Art of Lifestyle Design
Build a life you don't need a vacation from" is a popular phrase in the noisy world of entrepreneurship...but how do we define that it and know what it actually takes to achieve?
My name is Jesse Sieff. I'm a former engineering student, professional musician, U.S. Marine Veteran, ICF certified coach, father of twins, and now 6-figure media agency owner.
I'm excited be your coach to help you cut through the noise and design the life you want.
Let's start with the basics...
All humans are constantly battling to balance two powerful forces: external and internal.
The external is the most influential, which caters to our natural desire to be accepted and fit in to well defined groups. Historically, that is what our survival depended on and why evolution hardwired it into our psychology.
The internal, is your inner voice, your will, your moral compass, and your goals to grow in ways that are uniquely important to you...
This session is all about listening to that inner voice, training it to be louder, and allowing it to guide your habits.
As we grow up, we have no choice but to be completely immersed and programmed by a series of institutions: family, religion, school, community, career, social media, etc...
Ideas of what is "important" are defined and prescribed to us before we have the ability or experience to consciously question it.
Focus demands clarity on what is important, but if we don't address the root of the problem (you subconscious) then you will forever be stuck focused on solving the wrong problems.
The Secret Art of Lifestyle Design is for anyone preparing to or currently making a major pivot in their lives.
It's to honor the values of living up to your own ideals and not someone else's ideals. It's not about getting out of work, but rather setting up your lifestyle, so you can work on the right things on your terms.
I look forward to seeing you there and helping you "break on through to the other side.
