Nithya's Top Tip: "If your goals are important enough on a spiritual level, the rest are just details."
In this week's Top Tip episode, Becky and Amy reflect on Nithya Prabu's recommendation for entrepreneurs and leaders to: Be really clear of your values, purpose and goals;Make sure your goals track directly back to your purpose and values; and highlights that, "If your goals are important enough on a spiritual level, the rest are just details."We discuss:How goals should reflect purpose, and purpose be driven by values; and how all too often espoused values aren't reflected in an entrepreneur's or company's behaviours and actions.The importance of thinking through practically how your values play out in your business.How scaling a business can sometimes result in a mismatch between a founder's values and their team's interpretation of these.The power of reflective writing and how it can help you shift your perspective and thinking to build your self-esteem, resilience, and ultimately your wealth.How much fun goals are!Nithya has published a range of books, including motivational poems. From her 2017 collection 'Lionness on Fire', Amy reads the opening to,'The Universe and You'You are not inferior. You're not negligible.You are not an excuse. You are exclusive. You are significant to this world. You are an answer to the prayers of this universe, for a purposewhich you and you alone can accomplish.The universe wants you,desires you, demands youto be here.That, my love, is the reasonwhy you are herein the first place.Forget what others have to say about you.Fall in love with you,submit yourself to the universeas it tries to work its waythrough you.We hope you enjoy this episode as much as we have.
