Will you join the Exceptional Life R-Evolution?


What will you say when you look back on your life? Will you think, “I lived an exceptional life?” Or do you find yourself struggling to have exceptional work and life experiences?


Who doesn’t want to live an exceptional life, filled with exceptional work and life experiences? I know I want to be like my 90-year-old grandma who told me, with a smile and tears in her eyes, “I truly feel I lived an exceptional life.” My life’s purpose is to help people live their best life— an exceptional life—and this book is meant to help more people!


After reading this book, you will know how to create these exceptional work and life experiences so you can one day echo my grandma’s words. To do so, we must first understand why evolving our performance is needed to reach our peak performance and climb our personal performance mountain. Next, we need to apply the lessons learned from our experiences, especially during challenging times like those we faced in 2020. Then, we will follow the guide for reaching our peak performance using the four keys: expectations, feedback, development, and accountability. Finally, we will apply these keys to the roles we serve in our workplaces, homes, and communities.


Everyone can live an exceptional life, and the resources in this book will provide you the guidance necessary to do so successfully. As we learn, grow, and evolve our performance, sharing the success of our experiences along the way, we will ignite the Exceptional Life R-Evolution! https://www.evolvingtoexceptional.com/free-workbook


We can change the world if we just focus on changing our performance in it!


My Review:


Are you ready to live an exceptional life? When you are old and wrinkled, will your memories of your life bring a smile or a frown to your face? It’s time to break up the mundane and start living your best life. Jessica Tietjen has helped several people turn their life around and she wants to help you, too. You’ll learn valuable tools to climb your very own peak performance mountain. You’ll incorporate four tenants in your personal and professional lives: expectations, feedback, development, and accountability. Are you ready to join the r-evolution?


The Exceptional Life R-Evolution is a modern how-to manual on how to be successful and fulfilled in all areas of your life. While the mantra is pedestrian, the results are profound. Jessica Tietjen uses techniques that are easy to understand yet thought-provoking. As I read this book, I reaffirmed my goal of living a peaceful, content life while making a difference. This book is applicable to all and should be read by everyone. If the past two years have taught us anything, it has taught us to be mindful, seek answers from within, and focus on what matters most. If you’re looking for a change in your perspective, pick up The Exceptional Life R-Evolution. If you’re looking for guidance, you’ll want to read The Exceptional Life R-Evolution. Highly recommend!
