If you are interested in personal mastery, are probably familiar with the life and work orientation process of setting goals to determine who you want to be in life and what you desire to accomplish.

This is only half of the equation.

The lesser-known re-orientation, or self-evaluation, process, is even more valuable.

Self-Evaluation

Self-evaluation is like a mirror.

It provides you the ability to see all of yourself and your actions, not just the parts you want to see or remember.

It also gives you a checkpoint to determine what is working for you, and what needs attention and allows the space to make changes or corrections to your goal-achieving system.

The more often you inject sampling points into your life, the more accurately and quickly you can contrast and compare your current performance with your ideal execution.

The best way to make this a habit is to begin the practice of reviewing your days using the 3-1-1 Method.

3-1-1 Method

At the end of each day, write:

• 3 “Wins” you had that day

• 1 area that needs attention

• 1 way to improve your result in that area tomorrow

As an example, your 3-1-1 Review may look like this:

• 3 wins

  • Planned my day in advance

  • Turned off my phone while in a meeting

  • Got 2 hours of deep work done on Project XYZ

• 1 Improvement

  • Ate poorly at the vendor meeting

• 1 way to make improvement

  • Pack lunch from home the night before work

Use this framework daily to reinforce your positive actions and identify what needs to be changed and how.

Through this daily practice, you will grow closer to mastery.
