score yourself honestly
If you want results most people don’t get, you’ll need a state of being most people don’t have.
Not a good day. Not a good week. Consistently. As a baseline.
Before any strategy changes your life — before any advice lands or a great idea becomes reality — your life needs to be capable of receiving, nurturing and sustaining a different future.
That’s not a mindset problem. It’s a capacity problem. The Xponential Radar is a simple and unnervingly accurate tool I use in my program to score your capacity to thrive.
It’s brutally predictable. Below 5 on more than 3 dimensions — you’re going to struggle. Above 7 on 5 or more — you’re going to win. Almost regardless of the strategy.
The numbers don’t lie. And most people have never looked.
Today, I’m giving you the Radar chart. Take a notebook and rate yourself honestly from 1 to 10 on each dimension.
It takes a minute or two — let it sink in. Reality is staring you in the face.
We work on getting all 7 dimensions above 8. That’s when life starts feeling like it’s working with you instead of against you — better work, better decisions, more energy for the things that matter. People around you start noticing before you do.
Today I’ll unpack what the 7Fs are so you can score yourself accurately.
Next Sunday — I’ll show you exactly how to raise every number. Fast.
The 7 F’s are in order of objective importance to your overall happiness and high performance. The first four are the highest predictors of happiness in the research. People who score high on them are healthier, wealthier, and outlive everyone else.
Rate yourself 1-10 on each. Be honest — the radar only works if you are.
Faith — You have a spiritual practice that helps you see life more accurately.
Family — Your relationship with your parents, spouse, partner, children.
Friends — Deep, meaningful friendships that sustain you.
Force — Fulfilling work that makes you a force for good in the world.
Fun — You experience delight, laughter and joy regularly.
Fitness — You have high energy and tone in body and mind.
Finances — You are building and managing your resources with intention.
Now add it up. What does the picture tell you? Hit me back with what you find.
