Happy March. Ready or not, we are 2 1/2 months into 2023. How are you coming along? Hopefully, you are making progress on your goals.

I find that often we get tripped up in getting STARTED. So, draft a plan for what you want to tackle and get started.

See in your mind’s eye – where you will be when you accomplish what your goals are.

Stay steady on completing your steps. You don’t need ‘luck’ – you need to carry out your planned ideas!!!

I will leave you with this question from James Clear, author of Atomic Habits: “The ‘thing’ that I am unhappy about ~ is it actually hard to change OR is it simply hard to have the COURAGE to change it?” Need short-term coaching, please contact me.

Trust this finds you ‘in motion’ working with focus and discipline to accomplish your goals.

Know what it takes for you to get organized and then to stay on task – 1 task at a time.

Multi-tasking is definitely over-rated. And you wear yourself out. It is hard enough when you get interrupted to have to take 15-20 minutes to remember exactly where you were in your process when you got interrupted!

And if you are multi-tasking when you get interrupted … WOW.

Take charge and put your boundaries in place. Then, defend them! You will be tested.

Happy New Year ~ 2023 Hope all is going well as you start your new year.

Please start slow. Give yourself time to implement the changes you want. Work out the kinks in your plans. Try it on for size, adjust where you need to, and keep it moving.

Let January be your ‘easing into month’. Do build in your “ME” time, as it is most important in the fast-paced times we live.

A quote from James Clear, author of ATOMIC HABITS ~ “Every action you take is a vote for the type of person you wish to become! No single instance will transform your beliefs, but as the votes build up, so does the evidence of your new identity.” Do think about that. This is YOUR new year!!!

Review your week on Saturday – how did it go and make any necessary adjustments. Update your calendar for the coming week.

Have a delightful MONTH. See you on 16 February.

We made it. Happy Holiday Season 2022. I wish for everyone to have a delightful holiday time this year. Be safe and have fun with friends and family. I will be back in the New Year of 2023. {17 January} Happy Thanksgiving, Merry Christmas, and Happy New Year … and Happy Birthday thoughts (to me) on 3 January!!

​

I will leave you a couple of winning techniques to end your year and get started on solid footing for 2023:

Always work from your best energy – handling your hardest tasks when your energy is highest. Develop your plan based on your priorities. Delegate where necessary. If a process is no longer needed – STOP doing it. Make use of technology that helps you streamline your systems. Then – just DO IT!!

Remember the pace of your life is, for the most part, the results of your decisions. Stephen Covey said, “You will never be able to say ‘no’ until there is a greater ‘yes’ burning inside of you.”

Happy ‘cooler’ October!! Fun time. Football!! Fresh-air activities.

Acceptance of yourself!! Build on your strengths; and, understand your weaknesses.

Get help for the things that slow you down. Change the way you handle your challenging tasks. Delegate. Hire someone (Family, Friends, or Fiverr).

Time is short for 2022. There is still a lot to be done before 2023 arrives. Do you need a little coaching? Let me know if you do. Do you know your strengths? Build those up!! An assessment can give you answers.

Happy New Season!! The Quarter Gateway to 2023. But let’s not get ahead of ourselves.

Can you answer the question – “How will I know I have HAD a good day”? Sound a little tricky?

It is not – when you have intentionally focused on 3-5 tasks. Some you complete; others you research; work 30 minutes on; or, lay out a draft outline of steps.

You will find at the end of your day – despite any interruptions – you made progress on your task list. You HAD a good day!! It is that easy with planning and sticking to your plan for what you want to accomplish!! HAVE A GOOD DAY!

Are you ready to roll into September and out of December? … it will happen in a flash!! “2023“

Will you be looking back – yet again – where did the year go?

First – Let your hair down and relax and have some summer fun!!! But, while you are relaxing -spare some time for PLANNING!!

What goals do you want to reach by November? (Knowing December is a lost cause – it is the set-up for January)!!

Second – strongly consider developing YOUR “Rise Ritual” [your first 90 minutes] – to start your day with your tasks aligned (prioritized) -“Your daily target(s)” AND asking yourself “How will I know I have had a productive day? – – – Did you accomplish your daily targets? Also, develop YOUR “Shutdown Ritual” – end your day with prep for tomorrow. Then, go enjoy your evening with friends and/or family (recharging). Stop burning the midnight oil!!

Need help with either Ritual set-up or answering ‘THE’ question – email me.

3rd Thursday with GJ, Thursday, 21 July 2022, “Do YOU, … Intentionally”

Happy 2nd half of 2022!!

Also, Tony and I celebrated our 40th Wedding Anniversary (last week).

Hopefully, you are taking the time to review where you are! As soon it will be the end of the year. But, as you enjoy this summer season, do you!!

What are your goals for the balance of 2022? Are you a morning person or a night owl? Are you a big-picture thinker or you are concerned with the small necessary details of accomplishment? Are you feeling overwhelmed? Are you over-scheduled with appointments? Take control! What is really necessary? Aim for 3 tasks per day. Perhaps a ‘meeting’ day for appointments; so, you are not disturbed every single day. Handle your most important tasks – first. Establish clear start and end times for your workday. Have family fun times.

Need assistance in reaching your goals? Please contact me <- email or schedule an appointment through the link below. Have a happy, fun, and safe summer.

WoW – we are 5 1/2 months into 2022 – how are YOU doing? Now is the time to access where you REALLY are!!

​

1. Review your quarterly goals from January and April. (in truth – you should be doing a weekly review/adjust … but,)
2. Are you on track – even if a little behind? Or, has life sent you in a totally different direction? You have to re-compass and get in the aligned direction.
3. What are your summer plans – you need some ‘relax’ activities (head to the mountains; go visit some ‘fun’ friends; go to an out-of-the-way beach for a 3-4 day vacation…)

What have you got ‘cooking’ for your summer? Get those dreams and naggings finalized into ‘fun times’.

1. What are your activities? (museums; summer markets; explore nearby wood and parks; activities with your children; starting a new outdoor craft or hobby; … etc.)
2. What are your transportation needs? Passport up-to-date and ready?
3. Clothing and/or any needed equipment to purchase?
4. Money saved for a special event or concert?
5. Coordinate with friends or family in your area of visitation?

​

Take the time to relax and let yourself de-stress!! Get energized for the remaining months of 2022.
