• I'm a coach and I decided not to set a word of the year or a big, fancy goal for all of 2021. ๐Ÿคญ โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
Yep! It's true! Here's why.โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
I had a BIG goal in 2020 to launch a group coaching program. (oh and I had a baby too lol ๐Ÿ˜…) That was a BIG project and it took a LOT of energy that I'm honestly still recovering from a bit. This past Fall was a lot for me. I didn't do it perfectly and I hope to never do it that way again. But I learned SO dang much from it that I'm *kind of* grateful for that season.โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
But wow am I glad it was just a short season.โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
So now, instead of doubling down on another big goal this year, my focus is to serve my clients REALLY well and to have all of my group coaching content done by April 1st.โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
So every single week I'm working on that content and working hard to get me to that goal. That goal, although small and not very sexy, gets me closer to some longer term goals because it's a stepping stone. That goal is in alignment with my long term plans.โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
Every single week you should prioritize time to work toward your next big goal and you should make sure that goal aligns with your long term vision.โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
After all, a goal is nothing without action and sideways energy isn't doing you any favors. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ

  • Do you ever get to the end of your off season and wonder what happened? WHERE did all that "free" time go?! Why do I feel like I didn't get anything done?!โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
If youโ€™re anything like me (and every creative Iโ€™ve ever met๐Ÿ˜‰) you probably start out with a looooooong list of projects you hope to get done. โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
And yet for some reason, it feels like four months (or however many months you have) is so. much. time. We feel like there's plenty of time to do #allthethings. So we set out to tackle that long list of projects because there's plenty time before busy season, right?โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €

Have you ever heard the old adage that the bigger the tank a goldfish lives in, the bigger it'll grow? The same thing happens to our projects if we don't plan them out and set ourselves deadlines.

  • I got an Apple Watch to help me detach from my phone more. I've really hated how much time I spent scrolling social media and letting strangers on Instagram control my mood, so I did something about it. Sure, it wasn't cheap, but it has proven to be oh, so worth it!

I don't have any social apps on my watch. I honestly could probably do a lot more with it, but I haven't even made the time to figure it out, because the purpose I really want it to serve, it is! As a Mama, I know I will be reachable if there's an emergency and really that's the literal only thing I need to be super accessible for. Otherwise - I've just built unhealthy habits of being available, staying in touch with everyone everywhere and scrolling mindlessly, which leads to feelings of inadequacy.

Sure, there are some sacrifices I'm making. Like not being as responsive as I wish I could be with friends and extended family. I send delayed responses a lot, but I know it's the right choice because it's healthier for our little family. My husband and my babes get more of me and they are my primary responsibility in this season of life.

If you have any other tips and tricks for detaching from social media but not falling off the face of the earth, I'd love to hear it!! ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ˜…

โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
That big, scary dream you have? It won't happen if you don't start working toward it NOW. So let that be the kick in the pants you need *OR* the grace you need to take it at your own pace because you're CHOOSING to delay it a bit. โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
The choice is yours. This business is yours. Take ownership of your time and your choices and let that give you the confidence you need to take the next step. Not the next 1000 steps....just the ONE little next step. Because you have to do that first.โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €

Are you feeling overwhelmed, defeated, and discouraged?โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
I know it's wayyyy easier said than done, but it's time to flip those feelings. It's HARD to show up confidently when we don't have a positive mindset.โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
But you know what's crazy? Your business will do better if you ditch the negative and focus on the positive. You'll be more confident, happy, and productive. Sure, a positive mindset doesn't solve all your problems, but it sure does help you get there.โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
So take a minute to appreciate how far you've come this year. Celebrate the wins (big and small)! Recognize the things that are making you feel overwhelmed and make a plan to tackle them. โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €

  • Have you looked ahead to next week? It's Christmas week!!! ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿผ Aaaand a short work week. ๐Ÿ˜…โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
Make sure you're being super realistic about what you can actually accomplish in those few days. Take a few minutes today to plan your work week, however long it is.โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
1) Decide how many days you're going to workโ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
2) Decide how many hours you'll work on those days (schedule in your lunch break!)โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
3) Write out all the tasks you need to completeโ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
4) Prioritize your tasks from most to least importantโ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
5) Write out how long will each task take you to completeโ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
6) Fill in your working hours with your tasks (keeping in mind the amount of time each will take) on your calendar in blocksโ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
7) Move any tasks that don't fit into your schedule to the next week and let go of the guilt! โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
YOU call the shots in your business and you need to decide how you spend your time. Because it WILL fill up, and most likely with the wrong things if you're not careful. Speaking from experience ๐Ÿ’๐Ÿผโ€โ™€๏ธ
