Procrastination

Ok, so we know what we want, and we know how it will change our life, so why don't we already have it?

This is a BIG one.

Because we PROCRASTINATE! Yes we, you, me, everyone procrastinates about something at some time. It's human nature.

However, keep in mind that when we put things off it reinforces our negative habits. It keeps us stuck in a place we don't want to be.

On top of that it makes things really seem worse than they are.

Have you ever stressed about making a phone call? Even for something simple, like the cable bill came in wrong. You get the bill, you think "I'll call tomorrow, first thing." First thing tomorow comes and you think "I'll call after I do x,y & z." Those things are done and it becomes after lunch. After lunch so many other things need to be done. Before you know it the day is over. Ok, so I'll call tomorrow. And it weighs on you all week, sometimes for several weeks, until you finally make the call, which takes all of 5-10 minutes to straighten out and then your DONE! And the RELIEF is incredible.

Now why in the heck didn't you do that on day 1?

The Ins and Outs of Networking

I thought I'd talk about networking for those who are just starting out in their networking journey. And maybe, just maybe, someone who's a pro, will learn something or get a new idea. When you start out on your journey of networking, you're not sure what you're going to find. If you're like me, you're a little intimidated by everyone. They all seem so put together, so confident. It feels like everyone knows everyone else and you don't know anyone! You might sit there thinking "What the heck am I doing here?" But guess what? What you're feeling is 100% normal. And guess what else? We all felt the same way when we started networking. Because I'm one of those people who remembers feeling that way, I make it a point to go out of my way to talk to newbies, show them around, introduce them to others, give them networking advice. It's funny because the very first networking group I ever attended is the one that I'm currently the ...

Building Self-Discipline; Step 1

So how do we build self-discipline? First we figure out where we need self-discipline in our life. What are the areas in your life that you are struggling with? These are usually things you want to do, but for some reason you don't do them. Here are some ideas. Exercising, cooking meals, laundry, networking, de-cluttering, organizing your desk at work, yoga, meditation... the list could go on and on. Think about your list for a minute. Now, write down 2 or 3 things that you know you want to do, but keep putting off. These are things that you know would make an impact in your life. Now, next to each item, write down why you're not doing them AND why you want to do them. # selfdiscipline # lifehack # gettingstuffdone # liveyourbestlife #jimrohnquote MW Copyright 2017
