Carol here, your Green Goddess. Today we will address your mission and your purpose, and how does that tie into your productivity? It’s a great question.

5 simple ways to harness your brain strength
Our brains are powerful. They keep our bodies functioning, allow us to feel our emotions, and generally run the show across most aspects of life. Put simply, our brains are AWESOME. And, much like a car, our brains need maintenance to stay in tip-top shape and be healthy. After all, you wouldn’t keep driving with a flat tire, would you? Same way you wouldn’t try to drive the whole of Route 66 with just a quarter tank of gas. So, since there’s no “neuro equivalent” to an auto shop you
Putting your own spin on getting organized
Physical and visual organization are the foundation most people need to feel at peace and reach their goals. Workspaces are usually clear, everything has its own rightful place, we have a calendar filled with notes and appointments to remind us what we need to do and where we need to go… the perfect “picture” of organization from the outside. It’s what a lot of people THINK they need to aim for when they set out to “get more organized”. AND… Organization needs to work for you and your brain. “Picture
The importance of creating easy and simple habits that work with your learning style
In my last blog, I spoke about the importance of goals and shared some tips to help you make sure you don’t lose sight of those goals among the sheer CHAOS life can sometimes turn into. I hope you feel even just ONE STEP closer to achieving what your heart’s been desiring most. What supports those goals? Yup, the bottom of the Productivity Success Cake. Cake pieces made into habits. Little stuff adds up. This is true with food choices, yes, and it’s more than that. What I’m referring to
7 ways to stick to your goals when life throws you a curveball
Many people, particularly neurodiverse folks, avoid “goals” because they have had a history of “failure.” Try as they may, their life is littered with good intentions that do not result in the intended product. As a result, they find themselves not trying, or, when they do try, they expect to fail…and so, guess what? Yes, they do – they “fail.” What happens? Most often, “life gets in the way.” You know, the inconvenient flat tire that makes you late. The unexpected trip to the doctor’s office which derails your week.
How a positive attitude and routine can help you up your game
Life is what we make it. I know, I know, that sounds kind of cliché, but it’s TRUE! Personal Development takes time. I didn’t emerge from the womb full of know-how and experience (though wouldn’t that have been something?!). I was just like anyone else (I still am, really.) So, I’m not going to sit here and pretend I have reached a level of awareness and grounded wisdom “with a fun twist and ninja coaching skills” magically. I’ve worked hard and have had more than my fair share of struggles.
3 ways to find and keep motivation even when you have lost hope
You can be flying high one minute, cruising along, minding your own business, and BOOM… something knocks you sideways before you even realize what’s happening. Suddenly, even the smallest of things can feel huge… every tiny failure can feel catastrophic, like the world is literally ENDING before your eyes. Doom and gloom sets in, leaving you feeling crushed by the weight of everything you can’t control or isn’t going how you want it to and, boy oh boy… once you’re down, you’re DOWN… Flattened. Low as can be. “Just snap
