#442: The Not-To-Do List: 3 Things to Avoid to Stay on Your Game

March 15, 2022

Listen on…

A successful business has everything to do with how you approach your day

Imagine this scenario: 

Your business is doing great. You’re meeting your goals, things are on track, and overall, you’re feeling extra proud of what you’ve accomplished this year. 

But let’s keep it real — you’re also feeling a little bit burnt out from pouring every ounce of your soul into your business, and some things are starting to slip because… you’re a living, breathing human. 

Maybe you’re packing your days so tight that you have absolutely no room to breathe, or you’re losing focus on the tasks in front of you because your mind is constantly occupied with something else. Or maybe you’re feeling overwhelmed and disorganized, and have no idea where to even start.

Can you relate? 

I don’t know about you, but it’s this time of year — the end of Q1 — that I tend to get a little frazzled, and because of that, start to lose sight of the goals and intentions that I set for myself at the beginning of the year. And if you’ve been a listener for some time, you probably know that my goals set the tone for my entire business and I keep them front and center (so they pretty much stare at me blankly in the face every day.)

So that’s why in this shorty episode, I’m sharing my list of three things that you can avoid doing to stay on top of your game, and move forward with a clear mind and ready to take on that new product launch, or podcast, or rebrand, or whatever goals you have set for yourself and your business.

It’s time to tighten up, friend — are you ready?

Here’s a glance at this episode…

  • [02:14] It's that time of year when the goals you set for Q1 or the new year may be slipping, and you might feel overwhelmed or disorganized. 
  • [03:14] You don't want to set all of your goals for Q1 or Q2. You need to spread them out throughout the year. 
  • [04:49] Avoid ending the work day without having a plan for the next day on your calendar. Have time slots for each planned task.
  • [09:40] Avoid a complex morning routine. I am a huge fan of morning routines, but it needs to be simple so I can I ease into the morning.
  • [14:03] Don't pack your day so tight that you literally can't breathe. I have full days, but I add buffers to my calendar so I can have a minute to myself.
