Impact You, Impact Them

One thing is for certain,

Everyone wants to impact more.

Whether you want to impact yourself and your own life, the life of the people your care about, or the greater community, as humans we are wired to grow and give.

If you are someone who is really looking to increase and step up your level of impact in this world,
You need to understand that you can’t shift to a new level of impact until you have an awareness of where you are, and what you need to learn from each level.

Whilst you read through the below, I encourage you to have a think about where you believe you currently are, where you would like to be, and the steps that you’re going to take in order to get there.

LEVEL 1 – SURVIVAL OF SELF

At this level, you are completely focused on you.
And that’s okay.
Because remember, you can’t shift to a new level, until you have nailed the level that you’re at.
Someone functioning at level 1, is simply focused on how can they create an impact on their own life. The drivers are often security and a level of comfort, making sure that you are in a place where you not only survive, but begin to thrive.

LEVEL 2 – FREEDOM OF SELF

When one moves past level one, you realise that there is more than just surviving, and you have started to generate extra resources (time, money, mindsets) where you have a high level of freedom of choices. When it comes to money, your income is greater than your expenses, all of a sudden you have some freedom. When it comes to time, once you have hours in the day that are “left over” after everything is done, all of a sudden you have freedom. It is at this level when you have the ability to make more choices, that you are ready to shift through to the next level of impact.

LEVEL 3 – BASE CONTRIBUTION

People who have shifted from level 2 to level 3, have realised, that it’s really not all about them. They are in a position to give and impact more, so they turn to their initial community to do that. This often shows up for people whoa re contributing on a small scale, to something greater than themselves. For example, giving, in any way, to their family, loved ones, people that they care about.

LEVEL 4 – WIDER CONTRIBUTION

People who have shifted from level 3 to level 4, probably remembers the shift. The shift generally comes from a very strong burning desire to be more, to do more, to give more. People entered at level 4 are focused on contributing beyond their initial community and turn to the wider community. This can show up as giving to a large community, a city, or even a country. It takes a huge amount of alignment and purpose to stay at this level, in a healthy way ensure that you are building on each of the levels each time.

LEVEL 5 – GLOBAL CONTRIBUTION

Very few people will ever reach the fifth level of impact during their life. People functioning at level 5, have grown and developed in a healthy way through each of the levels, accepting all of the lessons and growing through them, until they are living their life daily through the spectrum of level 5. When you reach level 5, you are truly focused on creating a global contribution. These people will do whatever it takes to give and impact on a global level, through all resources that they have. They are fuelled, ignited and motivated by the impact on this level daily.

There are many people out there, who desire to be at a level higher than where they currently are, but they do not move through the levels in a healthy way. For example, someone who believes that they are at level 5, they are working all over the world and helping create change, yet they are completely broke, stressed out and struggling when it comes to their own needs, because really, they have not shifted from level 1 to level 2.
The only way to truly shift to a new level of impact is to absolutely nail and achieve through the currently level of impact that you are currently sitting at.

So question:

Where do you believe you currently are?
Which level of impact would you like to function through?
What can you start doing today in order to become a master of the level you are currently at, allowing you to shift to another level?

So remember,

You absolutely can have it all – if you learn to impact more.
