10+ years ago at a Tony Robbins event, I learned about the Emotional Home. We may have a nice house or car, but we actually spend all our lives in the Emotional Home created by our minds.
Question: Does your Emotional Home need a renovation?
For example, there are 3 guest rooms in my physical home that I never personally use. Instead, I’m always in the kitchen, master bedroom and gym.
Similarly, most of us spend 90% of our lives in just a few rooms of our Emotional Home.
During a recent HBS Mindset Zoom, we workshopped the Emotional Home exercise…
Consider these three questions:
- What feeling dominates at work?
- What emotion is most present at home?
- What do you typically feel when you’re alone?
These 3 emotions ARE the rooms of your Emotional Home.. at least the “emotional” rooms where you spend the most time.
If these emotions aren’t the ones you want dominating your next 10 years, perhaps it’s time to renovate your Emotional Home.
If you have questions on the exercise or are curious about the next mindset Zoom, just hit reply.
