Mindful Monday - What Begins Well, Ends Well

About This Talk

Chris looks at the old saying “what begins well, ends well” and finds its meaning in authenticity and intent. The clearer and more honest we are about why we start something, he says, the better the outcome. He asks listeners to check their reasons before they begin any project or plan.

Key Ideas

• The saying is really about the authenticity and intent we bring before we start something.
• Be clear with yourself about why you are doing something and whether it’s for the right reasons.
• Grounding yourself in authenticity and intent at the start is how great endings happen.

“The more authentic we are about what we’re doing when we start something and what our intent is, the better the outcome is going to be.”
