Complexity and disorganisation in your life and business can lead to you being ineffective and feeling overwhelmed. It can create:
- a lack of focus
- distractions as you keep thinking about future tasks that need your attention
- stress by overwhelming your senses, causing your body to release cortisol, the stress hormone
- an inability to process information
- procrastination
- a lack of creativity or thinking outside the box
- memory loss
- an inability to live in the moment
In this ‘always on’ digital world it’s easy to get bogged down and overwhelmed with an overflowing inbox, information flowing faster than you can deal with it and ‘busyness’ stopping you actually getting the important stuff done including ‘living more’!
The phrase “to live more” can mean different things to different people. It can mean buying all the things you want, looking forward to a lifetime with “the one,” or living a relaxed and stress-free life. For me, to live more means doing more of the things I want to do and not just the things I have to do. The question is, “What gives you the power to do that?”
On today’s episode, I share my definition of the “power” that enables me to live more. I explain the five essentials that can help you organise and be productive in your business while having the time and energy still to care for your family and yourself. I also share some tools you can use to channel your efforts towards growing your business and less on the daily redundancies, explain why you should be intentional about the people you surround yourself with, and emphasise the significance of taking time off to be honest to yourself about the direction you want to take.
“It’s important to take some time out and get clear about what we do and want to do, and organise our lives and our work around making that happen.” – Jo Dodds
