CEO Mental Fitness Morning Tip #10

Throw cold water on it.

Yep, the morning cold plunge. Nothing like it to reset your immune system and get you going.

Alternatively, finish your shower with 2-5 minutes of cold water.

CEO Mental Fitness Morning Tip #8

Meditation.

I know, some will roll their eyes.

However, those CEOs who meditate say it enhances their awareness and focus.

Begin with a simple practice of 10 minutes in the morning.

CEO Mental Fitness Morning Tip #7

Ever have a day when you wonder what if anything you accomplished?

Before you start the day, write down three wins you will achieve. Start with intention.

CEO Mental Fitness Morning Tip #6

Set your circadian clock.
All you have to do is go outside and soak in some sunshine for 15-20 minutes.
Seriously.
It will reset you internal biological clock and help you fall asleep tonight

CEO Mental Fitness Morning Tip #5

Set your intentions.
Everyday is a blank canvas on which we can paint our masterpiece.
Not everyday will be great.
But calibrating our intention and mindset will put wind in your sails.

In "The Comfort Crisis", author Michael Easter argues that we have it too easy. I agree. Let's do hard things. To strengthen and develop CEO Mental Fitness, CEOs have to get out of their comfort zone. Push hard and take the leap.

[Liam Chrismer @liamchrismer]

I can be a whiner. Especially when everything seems too hard. And I hate it. Deep down I know that when something is hard, inconvenient, or uncomfortable then it likely means I am getting better and that I should stay with it.

What about you?

[Liam Chrismer @liamchrismer]

CEO Mental Fitness is a long game. Grit and resilience are the end game in the sustained and consistent pursuit of the art of practice. All professionals practice. CEOs are well-advised to practice their own leadership everyday.

March 27, 2025 will mark the first anniversary of the Nobel Prize winning author Daniel Kahneman's death at an assisted-suicide facility in Switzerland. The author on "Thinking Fast and Slow" was 90. What a poignant decision for the man who taught us all how to make decisions.

When do you need a CEO Coach #1:

When there's a big change. Could be an acquisition, the loss of key employees or changes in the market. The CEO benefits from a trusted advisor to check and calibrate their thinking.

'Almost everything will work again if you unplug it for a few minutes, including you'
-Anne Lamott

[Liam Chrismer @liamchrismer]

One or two critical decisions can make or break a company. It ain't easy being a CEO. Are you a bit isolated? Having a CEO Coach or an external trusted advisor can offer you a sounding board or a second check on a tough decision.
