Time is the single most valuable thing we have. I help busy business owners get out of overwhelm to work fewer hours in their business (without sacrificing income!) so they can get back to enjoying their business and their life again.
Monday Motivation - I release guilt and negative thoughts around how I spend my time.
|
Hello Reader, Do you remember learning about "opportunity cost" in school? Opportunity cost is the potential forgone profit from a missed opportunity. In simpler terms, the result of choosing one thing over another. Literally every decision we make comes with opportunity cost, including how we spend our time. I release guilt and negative thoughts around how I spend my time. Instead of feeling guilty or beating yourself up for making a certain choice about how you spent your time yesterday or last week, try viewing it as neutral--just information. For example, if you spent more time browsing social media than you meant to, instead of berating yourself for wasting time, get curious about why you did it. Were you avoiding other tasks? Were you so exhausted from the prior week that you needed to rest & turn your brain off for a while? Was that the only self-care time you got all day, or even all week? When we understand the root cause of "wasting time"--what primal need we were trying to satisfy--we can use that info to make the changes we want. By taking guilt out of the evaluation, it's easier to discover if spending our time that way actually soothed the underlying need...or if it just masked it. Or even worse--intensified our real underlying desire! And if those extra minutes browsing socials truly made you feel better, then definitely stop feeling guilty! Because your time coach (hi! That's me!) doesn't care what techniques you use, only that you get the results you desire. This week we will get curious instead of judgmental about how we spend our time by reminding ourselves 21x each day: I release guilt and negative thoughts around how I spend my time. ❤️ |

Hello Reader, Our affirmation stays the same again this week: I am always in the right place at the right time for what’s meant to be. I'll be honest: this affirmation hasn't been resonating super well with me. I haven't seen any movement on the job/money/gigs front. I don't feel like I'm in the right place. I'm overwhelmed with the amount of chaos happening in our country right now and I keep re-opening decisions I thought I'd made & put behind me. But when I look back over the past two...

Hello Reader, This week we're tackling FOMO! I am always in the right place at the right time for what’s meant to be. My husband is working on a couple side projects: a novel & a video game. Both of these industries can be pretty time sensitive--certain themes and genres seem to be more popular during some years than others. If you miss the window, you might be SOL. At least...that's the way it feels to us! Right now, both of his projects look like winners--a style or mash up of which there...
