Our lives are set to default or other people's standards, but who sets those defaults and standards? The answer is not us.
If we don't take the time to sit down and consider what is best for us, for our careers and businesses, this will be decided for you. This lack of control harms our efficiency, productivity, and mental health. That is why I created this process for everyone.
Why is the process so helpful?
This process has helped me beyond measure. When I struggle with being overwhelmed and start to feel disenchanted with what I am doing, or I feel as if I have lost my way and my goals are murky, I will go through this process, and it all becomes clear.
Stay on track
Reviewing will keep you on the course to achieve your vision even when external things change. Making conscious decisions rather than going too much with the flow will stop you from losing your direction and veering off track.
Consciously adjust the track
Recalibrate your track rather than stressing about arbitrary deadlines and targets that can begin to wane in relevance.
Expand your opportunities
Being conscious of your present situation in the reviewing process will enable you to consider your options deeply. You can enhance your experiences by identifying key partnerships, income generation possibilities and areas for growth.
Take stock and time out for the good things
We tend to fall into default mode and forget to smell the roses in life; this is detrimental to our mental health and sense of self-worth. Celebrate the good things that can get swept under the rug if we are overwhelmed, stressed out, and operating on default (join us at connect to smell the roses).
Crush the overwhelm and regain focus
Taking the precious time out to sit down and understand where the overwhelm is coming from and how to take your next steps forward is the best way to face the problem. Continuing to push through can be detrimental to the efficiency of the situation and your mental health.
Take control back
Actively decide and work out where you can improve your life, career, business and service
You are overwhelmed, bored or disenchanted with constant streaming and online events?
You are finding it difficult to switch off and have no real downtime?
You are struggling to focus at work and bring new fresh ideas and perspectives?
You are open to experimenting with creativity and learning new things
Join us to take stock and recalibrate this Christmas time and get ready for the year ahead.
