Unlocking the power of choices, timers, and self-care for a balanced and fulfilling journey
“Gotta do this, gotta do that, gotta do this, gotta do that—feeling like I’m drowning. Ever been there? Drowning in a sea of tasks, wondering, ‘How do I tackle it all? How?’
Life’s a wild whirlwind, but what if I said doing everything might not be the fix? You might ask, ‘Okay, then what’s the secret? What do I do?’ Right? What’s the secret?
Your answer…
It’s about choices, and choices pack a punch. Here’s what I recommend:
- Grab a notebook, jot down what’s swirling in your head, vying for attention.
- Then, rate them by importance. If they’re all crucial (some may not be), but if they are, score them from 1 to 10.
- Once that’s done, you’ll likely have a bunch of tens or at least some. Take those tens, and ask, ‘What happens if I don’t do these?’ Depending on the fallout, prioritize them.
- Then, take a weekly calendar and plot it out. List all you’ve got to do, including the essentials like sleep, meals, exercise, and self-care (super crucial—walking, breathing, meditation, yoga, or maybe chiropractic care). Don’t forget kids and family.
- After that, what’s left? Work stuff, clients, obligations. You might think, ‘Not enough time. How do I get it all done?’ Well, maybe you don’t need to do it all right now.
It’s fantastic because with limited time, you can focus wholly on your top priority. Grab a timer, make it fun,, and work through it. Put the other tasks aside; you can only do one thing at a time. Trust me, you won’t get bored doing one thing at a time. If you’re AD/HD, you can multitask in your mind with some music. It works. Ignite your brain, tackle one thing at a time with a timer, and reward yourself.
Let me know how the above process works for you. This is a game-changer.
In summary….life’s an experiment. It won’t be perfect all the time. Newsflash—no matter who you listen to, whether it’s me or someone else. When you view life as an experiment, treat your business as a massive experiment—one you adore and allows you to do what you want—then fitting it all in stops being a worry. Instead, focus on the crucial stuff, let some go, and move on.
Slowly but surely.
Experiment.
Have a blast.
Make every moment count.
