This is a short vlog-style YouTube video by Sandi L Boucher focusing on Personal Power Principle #7: "Be your best self, always. If you fail, do the next task, conversation or day best." Sandi explains how to pass this principle to loved ones by creating environments that allow mistakes and learning, gives personal anecdotes about her mother's habit of asking "What did you learn?", mentions book orders and a workbook/CTA for her email list, and previews Principle #8 in the next video.

Foreign. Hi, everybody, it's Sandy Boucher here once again. I'm Red Thunderbolt, woman of the Loon clan, a proud member of Sing River First Nation in Northern Ontario Treaty 3 territory. And. And I'm here with the last video for July, which means the last video when I am focusing on personal power principle number seven. And before I say anything else, here is a reminder of what that principle says. Be your best self, always. If you fail, do the next task, conversation or day best. Now, as always, the last video of the month is where I discuss how to pass this on to people who you love, your children and your grandchildren. And this one is absolutely easy. I'm going to put the power principle here on the screen. Say it to them. When your child makes a mistake, remind them that that's okay. What did you learn from it? Do it better next time. When your partner apologizes for saying something stupid, just look at them and thank them and say, okay. Please just make a point of doing better next time. It's okay. The learning process, the life journey is all about mistakes. We gotta stop beating ourselves up and we gotta stop beating up our loved ones for making mistakes. If we actually create environments that allow for mistakes, then what we're doing is creating environments where people are free to grow into their best selves possible. So this one's all important, and I really do hope that you pass it on to your loved ones. I know I was fortunate in that my mom always asked, so what did you learn? What was the lesson in that conversation? What was the lesson you learned today? It allowed me to make mistakes. It wasn't until I was much older that I ran into people that wanted to condemn me for those mistakes. And that's okay. That's their path. But I don't need to adopt their behavior. I refuse to condemn myself for my mistakes. In fact, in the last video, I shared how my mistakes are some of the funniest moments in my life. And by the way, did you notice books? Book orders. I am awake. Book orders flying out of my office. And I couldn't be more thrilled. This book is the best. Why? Because I learned from the other ones and made it even better. Which is exactly what personal power principle number seven is all about. Now, next week, I introduce a new principle. We're going to be talking about principle number eight. But until then, I have a workbook for you. Make sure you're on my email list so you get all these extra supports. Get on my email list. You literally have to go to my website and click get on my list. It is that easy. One more time. Here is personal power principle number seven. Be your best self always. If you fail, do the next task, conversation or day better. Remember, perfection is not the goal. Leveling up being even better than you were yesterday. Absolutely is. Until next week. I love you. Talk to you soon. Bye Bye.
