Shawn Achor in “Before Happiness” categorizes noise into four categories unusable because our behavior will not be altered by the noise untimely in that we are not going to use information imminently and the info could change by the time its usable hypothetical noise is based on what “could be” instead of “what is” and finally distracting noise keeps us from our goals. To get started think about what you do during your first hour? Are you engaged in an exercise routine, news routine or something else that eases you into your day?įocus What are you paying attention to that is not taking you into your best self? Are you a news junkie who wants to hear what is happening as soon as you wake up in your community and your world…the good, the bad, and the ugly? Sometimes that information functions as nothing other than noise. Most of my clients find that scheduling the hour at the beginning of the day works best. It’s up to us to determine when we can carve out that hour as we will be making sacrifices and changes in routine to make it happen. We all have the same twenty-four hours available in the day to create success for ourselves. When I engage in this discussion with my clients, they all agree that an hour set aside to focus, reflect, express gratitude and set intentions would be nothing but a positive add to their day, however the challenge is in finding that hour. If we could turn that hour into a power hour what would it look like for you? Where would you put the power hour in your schedule? What would you do during this hour? Many authors have revealed what they believe to be the activities that set successful people apart including but not limited to time for daily focus, reflection, gratitude, and setting intentions. The Power Hour “Time is at once the most valuable and perishable of all of our possessions.” -John Randolphĭavid Lakhani in “The Power of an Hour” suggests that it only takes an hour daily to create change in our lives.
